DVD prices

Back in the day when the series was first released I bought season 1 & 2 for reasonable price of maybe $24 each at Amazon. Cant remember why I didn't buy season 3, but the price of it now (even if you can find it) is well over $100. Even used dvd's of season 1 and 2 are through the roof on ebay. Complete series is around $250! Too bad its not streaming anywhere. It was a great series.

It was. I've got the DVD box sets for all three seasons (bought for me for Christmas/Birthday some years back). I won't be parting with them!

Wow really? Guess I better be careful with my complete series boxset. Terrific show. Definitely a shame if it's not streaming anywhere.

Sidenote: In the early 2000s there was an interesting fanfiction Season 4 online that was pretty decent, written in screenplay format.

And with a quick search, looks like it's still out there:

Learned that certain music rights have kept it from being available for streaming. Its all about the $$$$$$.

THAT'S WHAT KEPT THE WONDER YEARS FROM DVD FOR SO LONG.

Ah, figures. Music rights have held up a lot of shows from being released to DVD, or in some cases if eventually released taken many years to resolve (with someone probably paying an exorbitant amount to someone else, or giving them a big chunk of sales).

I find that irritating.
