I guess the next two seasons won't hit DVD...


When the remake goes to DVD since it bombed. That's the kind of marketing they usually do in cases like this, but I fear for the future of Fame seasons 3-6 coming to DVD.

i'm actually itching to see the later seasons to recall how stories unfolded--how characters were written on and off the show. it's been so long since i saw them. I kind of remember Cynthia Gibb in some sort of fairy costume singing Madonna's Lucky Star to Dwight at one point. And Janet doing the song "Dreamstreet" from her second album, a song I totally love. And Doris singing to a ghost in a mirror, and Coco returning, rekindling Doris's jealousy of her...Nicole and Jesse's romance...Nicole's death...crazy stuff went on on this show!

Nicoles death - wotcha talking about? She didn't die or did she I can't remember and if she did die what exactly happened?

reply

she dies in a car accident, and the whole episode features the reactions of the students to her death--kind of in the 'confessional' style they actually use in today's reality shows where it's just one person speaking to the camera.

I too want to see part of Season 3. I liked "Lisa's song", the one with the ghost.

Farewell,and may the blessing of Elves and Men and all Free Folk go with you.

I hope Sony can release them onto DVD....what is keeping them?

reply

Probably down to rights. BBC and RAI were involved in the production of series 3-6.

Actually - if it wasn't for the Beeb, the later series may not have been made... was a MASSIVE hit over here - airing after Tomorrow's World and TOTP...

I would at least like to see season 3 again, but I'm afraid you're right.


Next time you see me, it won't be me

It would be nice if Season 3 was on DVD. They are gonna show that season on Ovation in a week or two. Don't really care if 4,,5, and 6 don't get to DVD.

what i find annoying is that they released season 1--then REPACKAGED and rereleased it WITH season 2--when they could have brought us season 2 AND 3. I don't know why they don't just release season 3&4 together and then seasons 5&6 and be done with it. It saves them money in production and packaging compared to releasing each season separately, plus they can make the price a higher than a single season release.
