Season 2 DVD?


I received BOT season 1 DVD for Christmas - man was it great watching all those old episodes again!

Problem is, now I've been trying to buy season 2 on DVD but I can't find it? Does anyone know where I can order it (actual DVD, not just download the videos).



Sorry if this has already been posted, I looked through the first few pages of posts and didn't see it.

Thanks in advance!

Season 2 dvd's haven't been released yet...unfortunately it looks like there aren't any plans to release it yet, you can go on amazon and request to be notified when there is a release date (http://www.amazon.com/Better-Off-Ted-Season-Two/dp/B002ZCY7V4/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1293899835&sr=8-4). Hopefully if more people show interest, the they'll release it sooner.
Don't take this as actual info, because I have no sources, but I think if the season 1 sales weren't high enough they won't release the second (I know Fox has done that to a few shows ie:King of the Hill, The Loop).
It's funny to see your post, because I came here to see if there was any news about the dvd's.

Hah, glad to see I'm not the only one hankering for the second season! I added my request to the list, thanks for the info! Happy new year!

ungreateful_ninja, you are very right about Twentieth Century Fox with their show releases. They are very stingy with what shows they do or don’t release on DVD. Along with not releasing additional season sets to shows like King of the Hill and The loop, they also have done it to its Emmy winning NYPD Blue (only season 1-4 out of 12 are available). Not to mention its Emmy winning favorite Judging Amy, which had 5 seasons, has yet to be released also. And while the finale was a huge let down, Person Unknown was pulled from retailers release schedules just a few months before it came out (Nov. 2010). I honestly do not get it, Fox could just make a deal with Amazon to have the shows that they are possibly “worried” about with sales to be exclusive on their site. But then I look at all the various Glee DVD sets released and can’t help but feel they are a huge waste of money. No TV show has ever come out with volume sets while the current season is airing, or at least the way it is happening with Glee. Granted people bought the season 1 volume 1 back in 2009, because of a 4 month break. I have recently gone to several stores that sell TV Shows and while there, I remembered to look to conclude my theory. The latest volume (Glee: Season 2, Volume 1) was everywhere and many copies had not sold. Best Buy had it on sale for only $18 and Target caught on the week after it came out because they also had it on sale for $18. Previous volumes were never put on sale for less than $25 within the first few months of release, so obviously it was to get rid of them.

Sorry for rambling a bit, but what I’m getting at is that Fox simply has no clue how to manage money when it comes to TV show releases. If they had not wasted all the money on all the volume sets for Glee and just release a complete set, they could have probably released some fan favorites that people have been begging for, for years.

I would love Better off Ted season 2 on DVD, but it will probably be a very long time if it ever does, my guess is it won’t. Unless Fox does with another distribution company what Disney did with Lionsgate, by selling the distribution rights to several shows that were sitting on shelves yet to be released like Boy Meets World. So while there is some small ounce of hope, just get Netflix to watch them all on there for now.

I haven't purchased season one yet, so I hope they have both seasons in one set (like they did with "Andy Richter Controls The Universe".....another Victor Fresco series cut short too soon).

Everybody should sign up to be notified.

Does anybody know who at ABC we have to bombard with emails and letters to get them to release this?

reply

Yeah, I'm also waiting for a 2-season set. Which, if "they're" waiting for more sales of Vol. 1 before releasing the next, is a stand-off no one will win! Signed up on amazon to be notified "when" season 2 comes in -- it isn't much, but I guess it's all I can do.

reply

It is on Netflix Instant, and I've watched through it a few times on there. But, yeah, I'd like a DVD, too.

You had me at "meat tornado."
