I pre-ordered my Starcade DVD and it arrived today. If you’re a fan of the show I highly recommend it. It comes with 5 episodes and the picture quality is superb. No “bugs”, no voice-overs, no promo scrolls, just broadcast quality game show! The DVD bonuses are worth the price of admission. You get a clip of a rehearsal for a show where Geoff does his things with puppets filling in for contestants. There’s 2 old spots featuring Geoff plugging the show “Mondays on WTBS”. Then the ultimate gift for a fan, the theme IN THE CLEAR over various behind the scenes shots in a sequence that must run 5 minutes! My suggestion, pay the extra for the pack with the T-shirt and “Weepuls”.

As an aside it’s a shame more shows aren’t released in such a classy way. James and Mavis (the creators) are really proud of this show, as they should be, and are so dedicated to the fans. I’ve e-mailed them questions and heard back from them directly. In the package was a nice note from them and they're having some fun with people taking pictures of themselves in the T-shirt and sending it in. Really nice folks!!!

ANYWAY, 5 stars for this DVD package!!!

Might have to spring for it now...I also placed an order w/their store for one of those Starcade tees, which up to now was only available as a bonus for purchasing the DVD.

If they ever do a DVD w/the Eruzione and/or Trebek pilots, I'd def go for it...time will tell.

And for those who wanna read more about the aforementioned pilots, check out:

BTW, about the Starcade pilot with Eruzione:
I emailed one of the producers that they should put a few clips of the pilot online, but he replyed by saying they were saving it for something special.
What do you think that could be? I think it's probably going to be on a video...
Who knows?
