Old Non-Commercial TV Shows (HBO, Showtime...) - DVDfile.com forum for DVD, Blu-Ray, and HD-DVD

I was just going to ask if anybody used to watch "Brothers" on HBO and then started looking for info on it, which is few and far between, but led me to other stuff I hadn't thought about forever, like "Bizzarre" on Showtime which was the first to feature Super Dave Osborne, then obviously Super Dave's own show, and these reminded me of "Not Necessarily The News", blah blah blah... it snowballed.

Does anyone remember any of these shows? Any other shows from that era on HBO or Showtime or any of the other non-commerical channels? I liked Brothers a lot and wouldn't mind a dvd release for the series. Be kind of cool to see Bizarre again too.

I remember Not Necessarily The News. Don't remember any of the others.

HBO had First and Ten, a sitcom about a professional football team starring pre-Designing Women Delta Burke and pre-murdering O.J. Simpson. I believe the entire series is packaged in one DVD set.
