Nah, it's not even a season set or anything like that.  Just a sampling of five shows.

Yeah, I don't have it myself, but I've heard it's not the best.

Another one may come out with the hour long pilot and/or the pilot to the Finders Keepers pilot they did!

They ARE having another, whether they are selling it or not... They had a poll on what the fans wanted as special; features.

And I believe the official source told us if they are selling a lot or not, as well...

Well, at least its a step towards possible Game Shows on DVD. Too bad all the game show dvds right now are for Video Games.

The one thing to ponder, though:  Is there a market for game shows on DVD or VHS?  I myself wouldn't mind seeing it.  I'm not saying it's impossible, but I'm not sure if Tic Tac Dough was as popular as say, Three's Company.

It's been discussed in here that the market for game show DVDs/VHS tapes wouldn't stray too far beyond the game show uberfans. Maybe someday they'll release something like the recent NBC Outrageous GS moments specials on DVD, and we'll see how they do.
