    As far as I'm concerned, there's really no reason to not release every show ever on DVD. Every show has its fans and there is so little cost to making DVD box sets. Companies make money hand over fist on these things.

    Yeah It's kinda dumb that all the other 90s Nicktoons are getting season sets and Rocko is only getting "best of"s,

    Not that that's gonna stop me from picking these up.

    Oh, and I forgot to mention, it's the same deal as the Dr. Horrible DVDs here, in which you order and they make the DVDs on demand.

    Edit: Also I don't think they put any extras on these sets or the other season sets, just episodes.

    Okay this is starting to look like Nick was lazy and didn't want to give these a proper release, but at least it's Rocko on DVD.

    Right?

    :(

    The one real obstacle to making DVD sets of TV shows is the RIAA, demanding outrageous fees for shows that had music in them.

    WKRP in Cincinnati will never make it to DVD because of this.

    They have to change the music in the DVD releases and reruns of Scrubs because of that, and I hate it.

    You know I watched a few episodes of season 1 of Dexter's Lab online the other day and it didn't seem as good as I remembered it.

    Did it take a season or two to hit its stride or something?

    Australia?! How many people bought it there? Like, three?

    Well this is interesting, the two rocko sets I mentioned earlier are actually all of season 1 when you put them together. So they released season 1, but as two separate sets.

    That's kind of retarded.

    Powerpuff Girls is a brilliant show.

    as good as the show is the movie is fifty times better

    i went to the theatres to see it.

    I think i had to drag my little sister with me to see it though.

    Pussy.


    I saw this movie in theatres by myself like a grown man.


    People laughed, but I did it, God dammit.

    Me and a friend went and he let it slip that he had a crush on Bubbles. We were maybe like twelve.

    Never let him live that one down.

    Tara Strong is pretty cute.
    Be that as it may the crush was on the cartoon character not the voice actress.
    I can't believe how much fucking work shes done.

    Because it's not available in widescreen.

    almost 5 years later Warner Bros. has STILL not released the damn thing in anything other than fullscreen.

    Well, I just did some research and apparently Region 2 got the movie in widescreen, but not R1. Le sigh.

    I need to find out where my sister put the Powerpuff Girls DVD I got her so many christmases ago. I know she never watches it nor does she watch the Monsters Inc. disc either. I'm going to steal them back.

    You know what else hasn't been released on DVD but should be? The Ducktales Movie.

    Those lists look about the same


    they will have to mudwrestle for the title.



    not because either of them is particularly attractive, but because mudwrestling is the dominant sport in the field of title-granting.

    The second year students at my school were watching that on DVD in class the other day.

    The awesome part is that it was mandatory viewing. As in, if you didn't show up to watch this episode you got docked a letter grade.

    EDIT: I go to an animation school, if that clears things up.
