Jeffrey Scott:
The deals I found were at a local DVD store. I shop there on my lunch hour.

All I can speak for is Big Brother, because when Trevor & I talked to Jun (winner of BB4) she said that the entire cast has to sign releases to allow a DVD release, it was in their contract.

Yes, you are allowed to talk where you find the best deals, of course, I would like it if you got it from http://store.realityfanforum.com but I am being realistic, and want people to find the best deals. Go ahead and spill your guts! :D

So does it depend on the cast then?

Jeffrey Scott:
That's what it sounds like. I wonder if that's the reason why older Survivor seasons are not out. It's possible that the contestants now have to sign release forms so CBS can automatically put out the DVD's without having to get everyones consent.

JamesUK:
It would be nice if they could at least put out BB2-4, Amazing Race 2-5 and Survivor 3-6 on DVD so that people who want to catch up don't have to watch postage stamp sized files on their PC...

 :lol:

Or files that look like lego people when blown up to the size of your TV screen!

The only "available" versions of most of these series are horrible. Actually I meant to ask this - do these series ever get repeated on some channel somewhere? I'd love to pay someone to record the early series onto DVD for me when they're on...

I have always said, why not put it in the contract they sign to automatically allow for DVD release. It just doesn't make sense to make them decide.

And James, Usually we don't have any channel that re-runs episodes. Unless something like Fox Reality (Sorry for the curse word) re-airs the show. Survivor used to play on the Outdoor Network, but I haven't been paying attention lately. Big Brother, to my knowledge, has never been re-aired in the US.
