"Run Ronnie Run" still in limbo!

DVD's to join it there!

New Line has put "Run Ronnie Run!" on a side-shelf in the back pantry, behind the tiny individual boxes of stale mini-wheats that your Grandma gives you when you sleep over.

But now, to make matters worse. HBO Home Video is SERIOUSLY considering taking the Mr. Show DVD's, (DVD's which are produced, packaged, and ready to ship to your basement,) and withholding thier release JUST IN CASE New Line decides to release the movie (whenever that might be) so the two can be promoted together. What the fuck?! That might mean never!

Well, it looks like we'll all have to make do with the Ab Fab box set (in stores now).

Kickin' it Old School,

What the fuck, indeed! Someone go down and kick the retarded monkeys down in the marketing department in the head.

I haven't even seen the show before, but plan(ned) on getting the box set when it is (or was to be) released, based on the good things that I've heard.

HBO will be making a big mistake if they postpone this too far off, or cancel it (which would make absolutely zero sense).

Fact:

Original/ great comedy shows get treated like shit!

Actually, mostly just in this case (and with NBC's mishandling of Freaks & Geeks, and likely FOX's bad decisions with Undeclared.

I'm DYINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGg for Mr. Show on DVD. I want it now!!1 I want it when it's scheduled for April 2nd!!!!

Erg.

Hopefully this rant will be unsubstantiated and Mr. Show will be released on time, and Run Ronnie Run will get a theatrical release this year!!!

PS: My ICQ name for the last couple of years has been Ronnie Dobbs (now it's Ronwell Q. Dobbs), so you knowz I gotz ta lovez Mista Show!
