NEWSRADIO IS BACK!

Recommended Posts

Guest T®ITEC

Why is there a little angry face next to the thread now? Sheesh, guys!

 

 

Stephen Root seems to be all over the damn place. I think Vicki Lewis disappeared or something... Meh.

That Godforsaken angry face disturbs me. The old icon was so happy and inviting. We're scaring everybody away. We'll never win Best Thread of the Year again with this lousy SOB:

I think it's ironic. It's like...

 

"HEY! NEWSRADIO IS BACK! ...For like three months. A&E IS OF TEH DEVIL~"

 

On that note, what the hell is the matter with A&E? I need my Magnum, P.I. fix.

I was watching a "Night Court" episode like 5 years ago, and saw Root in there, too.

 

You could probably make a "7 Degrees of Stephen Root" if you were so inclined.

Magnum, his mustache, TC, Higgins, and all those bikini-clad Hawaii chicks will be coming to DVD soon, so start saving up!!

 

I'll restore the happy face.

*bump*

 

So, I'm watching "Buffy The Vampire Slayer" (the movie) over the weekend (mmm, Kristy Swanson), and who do I see? Stephen Root! As the principal of the school.

 

That is all.

Really?? I watched that sucky-ass movie again about a year ago, and I totally didn't catch him. Maybe because the DVD froze in the middle and I didn't get up to that part. Also, did you notice Ben Affleck as one of the basketball players (the guy who makes a face when he sees the vampire player)?

 

As for Kristy, I was mega disappointed in her Playboy layout. What's a point of having a nude celebrity layout, when it looks nothing like her? I waited 10 years for this, Hef! Also, I'm glad I got over the "there is no Buffy but Kristy", which was part of the reason why I initially avoided the show.

 

You could probably make a "7 Degrees of Stephen Root" if you were so inclined.

OK, let's do it. Here's an easy one: Connect Stephen Root to "Diamond" Dallas Page (without cheating!)

Stephen Root -> Jennifer Aniston ("Office Space")

 

Jennifer Aniston -> Courtney Cox ("Friends")

 

Courtney Cox -> David Arquette ("Scream")

 

David Arquette -> DDP ("Ready to Rumble")

 

Didn't catch Ben Affleck, but I caught Paul Reubens as the one Vampire dude (long hair, gets arm ripped off). I actually wasn't 100% sure it was him, so I had to check the credits at the end to be certain.

I'm so glad that my brother's buying a PS2, so I can steal it and watch the greatness... of Magnum's mustache.

 

I :wub: you AC.

What was Phil Hartman's first ever appearance on TV?

 

You guessed it- A voiceover on Magnum PI in 1984

Did everyone go to that Sont TV website and vote for NewsRadio on DVD? I didn't have time to read all the older posts but I randomly clicked on page 12 and it seemed that it was mentioned.

Don't worry- we did. Since they took it off A&E maybe that's a sign it'll be on DVD.

 

I know they won't load it up with extras but since everyone who was on NR seems to enjoy it- they could probably get the cast together and load that shit up.

 

BTW- Did anyone buy the new KITH DVD? I just wanna know if it's any good

I've voted *numerous* times on the Sony site.

 

As for actually getting it on DVD, I'd be perfectly happy w/ a bare-bones edition. Just having the original episodes (not syndicated versions) on DVD would make me extremely happy.

Hmm, interesting. $10 for complete Season 1? I think I'll give it a shot.

It said "later this year", so I wouldn't expect them any time soon. They'll need time to put them together (unless they've already gotten a head start).

This is the greatest news in the history of DVDs. I mean, once we get NewsRadio on DVD...what else is there to hope for? We can all die happy now.

I hope they put some commentaries. None of the castmembers seem to be that busy. I also wouldn't mind some behind the scenes material or some TV ads from 1995. That'd be awesome

 

NewsRadio has a cult following and those DVDs tend to do very well.

You know what would rule? A bunch of Phil clips, like backstage stuff, outtakes, what-not.

I'm sure on one of the season sets, there will be some kind of big Phil Hartman memorial extra with the cast reminiscing & stuff.

 

Well...we should all pat ourselves on the back for voting for this.

A Phil Hartman tribute would be the icing on the cake. Well I know what I want for my birthday
