Those of you without the episodes, I am sure some nice FoLC will tape/send the episodes to you if you just volunteer to pay for the tapes and the postage. I don't have the episodes so I can't volunteer. I am sure if you asked nicely and offerred to pay for the blank tapes/dvds and the postage, rather than whined, someone would be happy to do it. FoLCs are really nice people  . - Laura

Ok Laura . I´m not whining anymore. I was just making a statement that´s it. As I was saying it wil take ages for it to come to Brazil. that´s a problem for me. Of course I´d pay for the DVDs. It would not only be my obbligation but a pleasure as well. If anyone could volunteer for that, I´d appreciate it.  what do you think Simona? Better in Italian or the original sound?

Okay, you got me curious, I went and checked... I have about 50 video tapes of L&C stuff. Some of that is promo/best of/gag reel stuff. Some episodes I have twice. Some tapes have 4-6 eps, some have only one or two. Some are in order, some aren't. I was not really very organized about this Honestly, I have no idea how many episodes I have. I'd guess about half of them, but... I haven't looked at them in years, though, so I've no idea what quality they are anymore. If I were set up to copy tapes, I'd offer to send some, but I'm not... and I don't think I'm quite ready to part with the originals PJ

It´s ok chief!!! I´ll just wait for them on DVD here...or just ask someone who´s eventually going to the US to bring me them when it´s released. Do you think they will be released soon and all the 4 seasons? Does anyone know about that?

So Tank's my MN contact then (shipping would be cheapest) Tank I'm asking seriously, if you're willing to help out a whiny FoLC such as myself and share your EPs I would be eternally grateful and I'm willing to send blank tapes and UPS labels for shipping.

We have most of the episodes.
As far as I can tell we have all but two and those are intentional. Never on Sunday and the one with Drew Carey in it.
The reason for not including them were for personal theological reasons. Besides, the Drew Carey one was just awful.

If you go to Ebay and type in "Lois and Clark" +DVD there is a selection of a the episodes, each season sold seperately. Please note that after paying, you have to request that the DVD's have labels and slim cases for an additional 10 bucks. I do not know the seller or the quality, so buyer beware. James

Buyer beware indeed. I'd be very wary of buying LNC DVDs on Ebay. There are too many scammers out there to be sure that you'll get what you pay for.  Personally, I don't think it's worth the risk. I've frequently been angered by auctions set on Ebay offering DVDs of Stargate, which are extremely nebulous on the fact that they're offering material taken from the TV. Bidders are often paying extortionate amounts and I'm fairly sure half of them think they're getting official merchandise. It's sickening.  LabRat

I have all the episodes on VHS which I taped at SP from the network or TNT. I eliminated the commercials from most of them so they are second generation and the quality is not always very good. They include some extras like trailers for the next episodes and the hype for the wedding. I now have these transferred to DVD, thanks to a kind friend, and have no use for them. I'll gladly give them to anyone who'll pay the shipping costs. I haven't a clue as to what that would be for 44 cassettes. I would prefer not to break up the set. Just understand, these are not fancy and I haven't watched them in quite a while, so there could be problms with some of them. In other words, there are no guarantees.

I know, I know, it's creepy,isn't it? (but you have to admit it's a beautiful voice) Now, I know this is going to interest only italian fans (really only two people?), but do you prefer first season voice or Ridge-sigh-Forrester voice? Simona

All of them in two languages... how's that for obsessed? Kaethel!! Well, I have all the episodes on tape. 15 tapes, 6 eps per tape (except #1 <5 eps> and #15 <3 eps?>). I got some eps that I was missing from a very nice folc *years* ago and sat for DAYS and put them all together and in order. They're far from perfect, but they're all I've got until this dvd thing is resolved. Mad Dog Lane...I'm worried that if you get tapes from someone...well, isn't there a conflict of technology between countries? I just don't want you to go to any trouble and find that you don't really have the episodes. Sara (who needs to go email her friend TEEEJ 'bout some tapes...)

yeah I didn´t thought about that. :rolleyes: I guess you´re right. Maybe I´ll just wait for them to get here but i still think some kind digital Nerd could make them downnloadable here.. or is it something illegal? I don´t know anything about American royaty laws.. But it´s good u mentioned it anyway cause i was seriously thinking about purchasing some at the e-bay, presuming that they would send it all the way to brazil. thanks a lot for the warning!!!

Some of the episodes are available at Supernova (look under TV Shows/Other)using bittorrent software. I think all of the episodes are available, but may be mistaken. There are also some old comics available from the same site. There are many available bittorrent clients out there, including one at SourceForge.net. My youngest daughter has discovered my L&C tapes (full set), and has been watching them while she exercises. Frank

I have them all but one (and it's early second Season so I don't care - Lois was still looney and I find it kinda painful to watch her until the middle of Season 2).
I was surprised to find out that several of my son's teenage friends, as well as my 53-year-old brother are FoLCs, and I'm talking FoLCs with the episodes on tapes and who have voted for their DVD release.
So let's enjoy our tapes but hopefully we'll soon be able to watch Big Girls Don't Fly on DVD!

Well, that explains a lot. <g> I'd been disappointed to discover it was pay too, since I'd just decided I was going to crack this torrent thing. Thanks, El! LabRat ![[Linked Image]](http://www.sg1archive.com/forums/html/emoticons/scotland.gif)

I only have maybe season 2 to the end on VHS but I never recorded it on regular basis. Maybe I should get rid of them like Laura, it's just sitting in my huge plastic container of all my VHS. I don't have any organizaiton system to it. Some time I would record a new movie on the same tape.
