Canada Update

I said in an earlier post that I may or may not do some sort of "Canada Update" segment. In the aforementioned post, I also said that I liked Canadians and thanked them (sincerely) for their support in the US war on terror. For this, I was accused (by individuals not to be named here) of disliking Canada and Canadians. This could not be further from the truth. Sarcasm doesn't lend itself well to print media. So for the record, at least in the scope of this one particular blog entry, I am not being sarcastic and applaud Canada's Video Service Corp.


From http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/newsitem.cfm?NewsID=3074
"Here's some happier ALF news: Video Service Corp, the Canadian company that previously released The ALF Files (which contained uncut episodes), will be putting out Project: ALF on April 12. While this is a Canadian release, Amazon.com is stocking it ($10.49), and releasing it a week earlier than in Canada. Every set will come with a free ALF keychain!"

Apparently, in the US only the syndicated versions of ALF are available on DVD. Meaning that several minutes of the original NBC airing that were butchered will not be on the US DVD and will be available only in the Canadian release, which may be purchased online.

Thank you Canada.
