Guest Mattdotcom Report post Posted November 10, 2002 You know what I just noticed? Not only is this one of the longest non-wrestling related topics on the board, it's also gone for twelve pages without veering off the topic. Wow. NewsRadio forever...

Guest Mattdotcom Report post Posted November 11, 2002 The Talent Show ep was on at 1:30 central on A&E. Had I been near my computer, I'd have posted. This one has some of my favorit scenes (Bill and Beth singing "pretty" and Throwdini). Now why can't they show this during the usual run? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest areacode212 Report post Posted November 11, 2002 SING IT PRETTY! PRE-TTY! LIKE ME! One of the best NR scenes ever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bob_barron Report post Posted November 11, 2002 Damnit! I was asleep. As i said before we get NR at 4:00 on Sunday and showed the Ted is dead episode. I would kill for an mp3 of Matthew's song. Ted-he's dead. And the hobbits and the gnomes are dancing to and fro. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bob_barron Report post Posted November 11, 2002 Today was 'Inapproiate' and 'Smoking'. It was interesting that they didnt have a breakroom back then and the break room was the production room. We also saw the beginning of Dave-n-Lisa which is always cool to see. Is it just me or did Matthew seem different in the earlier episodes. He just seemed less weird Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Mattdotcom Report post Posted November 11, 2002 I've got a good feeling about NewsRadio on DVD. A&E has some shopaande.com site with a lot of their TV shows hitting DVD. There's even a Cult TV section. I'm not making promises, but I think we'll get NewsRadio DVDs one day. Sure, I might have to buy the rights to the show after I become famous and sell out (my dream), but we'll get them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bob_barron Report post Posted November 11, 2002 How would you do it though? Would you do best of episodes or certain seasons? They could release season 1-n-2 together or something but a season 4 disc would be bad ass. Season 5 on the other hand... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Mattdotcom Report post Posted November 11, 2002 By seasons, the only way to release any TV show on DVD. I'd just follow The Simpsons method and see if I could load up the Season One set with extras to compensate for the lack of episodes, something like the E! True Hollywood Story: Andy Dick.

Guest bob_barron Report post Posted November 11, 2002 I'm sure they could get a commentary track together, a behind the scenes, screen tests, interviews with cast-n-crew. It'd rock Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest areacode212 Report post Posted November 11, 2002 It wouldn't surprise me either if they released season sets. Columbia/TriStar has been releasing All in the Family and Larry Sanders sets. Since they also have NR distribution rights, the future is looking good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bob_barron Report post Posted November 11, 2002 That would be so awesome- I would fly to NY and back just so I could pick it up and not have to wait. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Mattdotcom Report post Posted November 12, 2002 And Paul Simms worked on Larry Sanders if you want to further the theory. Of course, MY NewsRadio Season One would have a feature on the show's cult status and interview fans, since I'm such a good friend and all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bob_barron Report post Posted November 12, 2002 A feature on the show's cult status would be pretty awesome especially if it causes me to be on the DVD. I'm kind of worried they may just bare bones it like they've done other shows that didn't get tons of ratings. A commentary track would rule the world though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Spaceman Spiff Report post Posted November 12, 2002 I wouldn't mind 1 bit if it was bare-bones. All I want is the orignally aired episodes on DVD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest areacode212 Report post Posted November 30, 2002 Well, I've been having fun with this on TWoP's 24 board, so I figured I'd bring it to the NewsRadio thread. Googlefight! Jimmy James (1 340 000 results) vs. Johnny Johnson ( 759 000 results) The winner is: Jimmy James Woohoo! Johnny sucks! Bill McNeal ( 24 500 results) vs. Max Louis ( 958 000 results) That's just retarded. Real Beth vs. Fake Beth: Vicki Lewis ( 197 000 results) vs. Kathy Griffin ( 153 000 results) The winner is: Vicki Lewis The original wins, of course. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bob_barron Report post Posted November 30, 2002 In no universe would Bill McNeal ever get his ass kicked by Max Louis. This is the guy who according to Lisa once claimed he could kick Joe's ass one handed. Then again Joe got his ass kicked by Matthew but anywho... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bob_barron Report post Posted November 30, 2002 I went to google and decided to googleism Bill McNeal and here are the two best googleisms- bill mcneal is god' barron bill mcneal is some sort of a god Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Mattdotcom Report post Posted December 6, 2002 As much as I mark for the Stinging Blows of...THE WINDMILL~! Bill actually knocked Andrea Planbea's Goon out. And speaking of Phil... I especially want the Improv book and new CD~! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bob_barron Report post Posted December 6, 2002 The 'Matthew knocks Bill the fuck out' episode is awesome. Matthew's mocking of Joe totally makes the episode a classic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest bob_barron Report post Posted December 6, 2002 if I was Italian I'd use that as my subtitle. Today was also the cutest reporter episode.

Guest bob_barron Report post Posted December 8, 2002 I was just kidding- but i always find it funny cause since we always bumped both threads you'd see- This thread with like 100 posts And the other thread with like 4 I wouldn't mind if you did it again- My semester ends soon so I'll have a lot of time to do summaries and reviews like I did last time. And Matt- I'm game if you are Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
