There seems to be a loosening up of TV shows being released to DVD as of late. Within the last month, I purchased Sliders Season 4 (waited at least 2 years for it), Swamp Thing (waited forever), War of the Worlds Season 1 (also waited forever), and others thast did not take nearly as long to come out for consumption (like Painkiller Jane, The Bionic Woman [2008]) It's kind of crazy how the releases are being so tightly packed instead of being spaced apart like in days past.

I think that it could be a couple of factors that are contributing to the inrush of shows being released. My small list is as follows...

1) It's a little over a year until Television viewing will be relegated to High Definition.

2) The economy is being shaky and consumers are needed to spend cash.

3) People want to watch more TV that had writers instead of "Reality" shows.

Whatever the reason, now I have a lot more on my viewing plate to watch during my daytime hours (Working Third shift will do that for your viewing of shows). I could not be happier to watch more of my favorite shows when they come out on DVD. Shows like Friday the 13th - The Series, which I have been waiting for since the Sci-Fi channel showed them again about five years ago and Birds of Prey which I seen when they televised it.
