DVD
Do to the
overwhelming email that I receive in regards to the
DVD and "when will it happen?" questions, I decided
to place all of the information that I currently
have on one page. I'm just the messenger, I
don't really know much more than what comes down the
pipe :)

Ok, some new news. Had the pleasure of a brief
contact with Mr. Mandell last week and he
mentioned that it "looks like things are finally
working out" in regards to a DVD box set
release. Brief words, I know, but better than
the project being dead in the water.

".....
plan allows me to completely digitally re-master
all episodes from the original masters sitting
in the Gaylord vaults, including 5.1 audio
expansion. The plan is an ambitious 8 DVD
package (8 episodes each), although it might get
broken up. Each DVD will be filled with extra
stuff like full length recordings of songs,
original demo presentations, voice over
commentaries (mystery science theater style)
audio tracks by me .... and anyone else we can
cajole into sitting with us, original designs,
sketches, storyboards, some new animation, some
old animation, and whatever else we can think
of.
The other interesting thing is that it
seems I may have to re-freshen the package of 65
original episodes with 26 new ones if I want to
get the series back on the air in a meaningful
way here .... it would mean a new team of series
6 Rangers, 20 years later. Well, it's fun to
think about anyway.

Galaxy Rangers (Thought I'd forgotten?):
The pursuit for a release (be it VHS/DVD) is
holding a backseat at the moment while Cartoon
Network is reviewing "Tortuna" and "Shoot-Out"
for a possible broadcast window. (Dea Perez
is the VP of programming down there in Atlanta -
R.B.) The possibility of sending some eps
to W.B. for review was mentioned. If all else
fails, "we'll continue to pursue the video
releases..."
