I'd pay monthly or for each episode to watch...also, you won't have to worry about problems with the music (I did notice the Doogie Howswer scene with Ed & Michelle was cut out in the "Dreamgirls" episode) I know several people that are more than willing to pay just to be able to all of these episodes. My friends and I are are thinking of starting a campaign for this...what do you think?

I would have loved the Hall of Mirrors episode, but it had music we couldn't use. The music will be changed and that episode will be available someday in some capacity. We were working for this set from Oct. 1979 forward. I really wanted Rita and Eve featured and Eve appears but it didn't work out this time. Some of my favorite Rita stuff is pre-October 1979 but there is still a lot to choose from once we got through them all.Roger Newcombhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17605713149480918249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-48518475070743285512012-01-21T11:27:05.658-05:002012-01-21T11:27:05.658-05:00Since we got a 5 ep disc for Christmas with ATWT, ...Since we got a 5 ep disc for Christmas with ATWT, a similar single disc for GL would be fun for Valentine's day- greatest love stories- two 80s, two 90s, one 00s. Maybe not necessarily weddings but there are so many couples to choose from for this DVD. Maybe ones that were not able to be featured as much on the first release.

Can't wait for future collections and when GL episodes (as well as the other P+G soaps) eventually go online.<br /><br />One question: Will there be a one-disc companion volume available for Guiding Light like there was for the As The World Turns collection and if so, what would be included on it?Raptor Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10082074763166644957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-89858640419910987542012-01-19T23:07:43.243-05:002012-01-19T23:07:43.243-05:00I was hoping for some Manny (which you probably kn...I was hoping for some Manny (which you probably know by now), but I think this is an excellent selection.
