I saw it myself on their local news broadcast.

Shelly works as a waitress and lives with Holling, who owns the local pub.

Stop messing around with us. 😬

Ed is that Indian guy who’s always rocking a black leather jacket, shadowing Fleischman everywhere, and is basically obsessed with movies. 😉

That's Maurice Shelly.

Look, I’m just repeating myself because someone else claimed the second one was already out. The schedule is every two weeks, not every single week. 🙂

Same here, they work just fine for me.

casualjackal12 said:So just to be clear on the schedule, the second disc drops next week?

This was the breakdown I saw in the news:

disc 2 - Jan 23rd
disc 3 - Feb 6th
disc 4 - Feb 20th

I just have to say, it drives me absolutely crazy how constantly rednecks get translated as Native Americans. 😠

casualjackal12 said:I really hope they don't pull a stunt like they did with Alo Alo and refuse to release the full series.

That’s exactly what I’m worried about. 😳 It feels like they might just be using this as a litmus test—if sales don't hit certain numbers, they’ll probably just scrap the rest of the seasons entirely. 😢 I actually saw an ad in The New York Times again today that specifically said: "The first two seasons of the cult classic series are finally available on DVD."

Regardless of their motives, I'm grabbing at least these 4 😍 (I already picked up the first one 🙂) and just praying the rest eventually follow.

The remaining 3 are scheduled for release:

Disk 2 - Jan 23rd
Disk 3 - Feb 6th
Disk 4 - Feb 20th

casualjackal12 said:What exactly are we talking about here? Where, when, why?

I caught an ad for this in The New York Times. If I recall correctly, they’re announcing a 4-disc set covering the first two seasons.

The first disc should have four episodes on it—the pilot plus three more.

Price is $49.90 😬

Oof. Same here. ☕

Donna Murphy3 said:(hopefully I spelled that right)

From where I'm standing, you seem to have issues with basic American customs too, like simple spelling rules.

Donna Murphy3 said:Pretty soon we'll be celebrating Thanksgiving with turkey too

Now that we have Thanksgiving here in the States, why shouldn't someone eat turkey on that day if they feel like it? 😬

Some people even eat turkey with noodles for Christmas. ☕

To wrap things up:

Oct 30th: Devil's Night 😈
Oct 31st: Halloween / All Hallows' Eve
Nov 1st: All Saints' Day
Nov 2nd: All Souls' Day
Down in Mexico, they celebrate those last two dates as Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) 😈—so if you happen to be traveling through there during that time, 😬

Just let everyone celebrate however they see fit. 🙏

hollowpanther5 said:Every Catholic celebrates Saint Patrick

Sure, technically, but it feels like lately, American "Catholics" don't actually head to Mass to observe the day; instead, they just throw on some green gear and spend the afternoon knocking back Guinness at a local pub. 🙄 Is that supposed to be our tradition now? It’s basically the same way people "celebrate" Halloween.

I honestly don't get why everyone is getting so worked up over this... 🙄If someone wants to celebrate, let them celebrate. For most people, it's just an excuse to have a good time and mess around.

Are we really about to see a wave of posts claiming that Harry Potter is some satanic book designed to corrupt our innocent Catholic youth? 😈Because if that's where we're headed, then the religion subforum is looking a little too intense.

I don't see anyone losing their minds over something like Saint Patrick's Day, even though that isn't exactly a core part of our traditions either. People dress up, head out to grab a drink, and nobody raises an eyebrow. ☕

I’m probably just going to skip mentioning that I actually got a text happy halloween. 😬

Just type it properly into Google and actually read the results; there are already at least a thousand threads out there covering this exact topic.

Here we go again. 🙄

Just scroll down.
