I know it's not Blu-ray Disc, but I saw the remastered edition at Walmart for only $24.83 plus taxes. That's quite a GOOD deal if you ask me considering the fact it's $46 everywhere else. I bought it since I love the series.

Eyore rarely if ever beats the likes of Beanz to a good story, but here courtesy of the usual informants is the background to his 81021 post: Fawlty Towers has been bought out of receivership by Impact Holdings (Bermuda Ltd) and is undergoing re-branding as a franchise.

It was only later that Cleese found out the BBC had filled the entire two front rows with 70 visiting Icelandic tourists who ...

I still get huge laughs out of it, and I think that most of the situations do hold up. Of course, the episode with the Germans might not make sense to kids growing up now who have no memory of WWII. Not that I have a memory of WWII, but that was my grandfather's generation, and I remember my mom talking about the German family they knew and the kids were kind of embarrassed to be heard speaking ...

Other than that, I got most of what I want, as there aren't many shows I'm that into, at least to the point of buying them. Homicide was a great show, btw.
