MST3K Volumes 15 and 17 for $25.99 each on Amazon, today only.

15

17

Just a heads up- Amazon usually offers 100 MP3 albums for $5 each every month. But through the month of August, they're doing 1000 CD instead. If you have any interest in music at all, there's probably something in there that you'll like, whether it's the soundtrack to The Good, The Bad and the Ugly, Dr. Demento's Hits from Outer Space, a couple of videogame soundtracks or one of the three volumes of greatest bits from Crank Yankers. (Shudder)

Funny....I was just thinking that Sunday nights was Dr. Demento night when I was a kid...and how much I miss that.   :)

Hey nerds! Firefly on Blu Ray is Amazon's deal of the day. $26.99

Now, I've never seen the show, but it's been recommended me by a few people. Maybe I'll find a few episodes to see if it's worth buying.

agree ^^^ most overrated show ever.

Thirded.  Only the movie was a bigger waste of time.

Not only did two people just agree with Im, but one of them was PSCD!? Is that even allowed?

Well, I ended up buying it. Reasons:
1. No offense other people that responded, but I trust gbeenie's opinion on this stuff more than the rest.
2. It was pretty cheap, not going to find that very often (ebay was even more expensive.)
3. All the episodes are on Netflix instant stream, so I can watch them before I open it. If I like it, then money well spent. If not, I can sell it, and only take a few dollars loss, if there is any loss at all.

Whats the point of having a non HD tv show on Blu Ray anyway? I dont get it.

Good plan, don't let anyone talk you out of at least checking this one out.  It's one of those shows that you either love or you "meh".  For me the only downside of the series is that it didn't last long enough, and I would have preferred for the ongoing plots and character arcs to resolve over a few seasons as opposed to trying to work all of them they could fit into a movie.

Less discs. DVD- 4, Blu Ray- 3. Also, it was cheaper than the DVD set.
