Action on DVD! Well, maybe...

From TVShowsOnDVD:

Columbia TriStar is considering releasing Action, the 1999 show staring SNL alum Jay Mohr as sleezy producer Peter Dragon. The show was initially intended to air on cable, and when Fox picked the show up the language had to be censored. Going up against Seinfeld, the show didn't stand a chance and was quickly cancelled after only 8 airings. With 5 episodes left unaired, cable channel FX picked it up to finish things off.

The show would make an excellent candidate for DVD. Most people haven't seen the last 5 episodes, and the DVDs could feature an unedited audio track. Hopefully there's enough demand to justify the studio releasing the show to DVD.


Honestly, not much to go on there, but "is considering releasing" is better to hear than "has forgotten the show ever existed," so I'm choosing to be optimistic. It'll happen, it will! And then we'll get Invisible Man, and Brimstone, and Brisco County, and Cupid, and...

And my mom just walked through the door and handed me a copy of Time with a scowling Russell on the cover. Yay, M&C article! I love my mom!

Joan in brief

Okay, I am going to catch up on my Joan posts, if only for my own peace of mind. That was the plan for today, in fact, but then my Vividcon DVDs arrived and pretty much everything else got tossed aside. Oops. But for now, I have the very briefest of thoughts ( on tonight's episode. I'll do a blathery post after I rewatch it. No, I really will )

So I'm possibly heading off to the sunny south tomorrow. Well, to Connecticut, anyway. From tomorrow until Wednesday or so, I think, but I won't actually know until tomorrow morning. I guess I should probably pack, just in case. Argh.
