According to various DVD websites a Police Squad is being developed at the moment. I have sent Paramount an e-mail asking for further details, but no reply yet.
When I get a reply I will post it on the website Cheers zaz_fan |

I was sure that when the 3 films came out on DVD 3 years ago, the series wasn't far behind. I'm just about through waiting...I guess I'll have to make my own.

Yeah, me too. I gave up and decided to make my own dvd from the tapes. Not exactly perfect, but it beats the tape dying on me.
On the dvd - if they're preparing it, exactly what do they need to do with it? Maybe put a commentary track on? Splice together some old footage of it being filmed? Maybe some gag reels? Not exactly time consuming... Then again Paramount DVDs don't have a history of special features... As for the technology of converting the sound to ac3 and converting the video to digital, it took me and my crappy pc 4 hours. I guess it's just Paramount dragging it's feet over a tv series that didn't do so well on tv in the US. Maybe if it was on a decent network at the time it would have done better. |

I just got the official Police Squad DVD - it's fantastic!
It's soo, funny, I can't believe it got canned - the reason the US TV channel gave was rubbish 'People had to actually watch it?' What? I just read a quote from Matt Groening: "If Police Squad had been made twenty years later, it would have been a smash. It was before its time. In 1982 your average viewer was unable to cope with its pace, its quick-fire jokes. But these days they'd have no problems keeping up, I think we've proved that" I wish there were more shows like Police Squad on TV.. |
