DVDTiger.com has The Muppet Show Complete Series DVD Box Set on sale for $49 with free shipping. 10 DVD set is not available in stores and includes all 5 seasons (120 episodes). It's time to play the music, it's time to light the lights...
Is this a legit product or a bunch of pirated episodes? From what I can see, there was never an official release of Seasons 4 and 5, let alone a complete set of all episodes. It also doesn't show up on Amazon.
Some of these DVD's haven't even been released yet. How is it possible that you sell them?
There is a section of the American copyright law known as "The Berne Act" that Clearly states: films unreleased in the United States, including original versions of films altered and/or edited for release in the United States, are NOT protected by American copyright, thus, they are considered public domain. The entire purpose of our website is to provide otherwise unavailable films or television shows to the serious collector. Thank you for choosing our services.
I'm suspicious that these are actually on-demand DVD burns like MGM sells, and not proper DVD prints. Who knows what the quality is, too. You probably get station idents and commercial breaks.
If you buy this yarr-pirated video set, Jim Henson will never create another Muppet delight again! Only buy Genuine copies of TV shows, especially the ones that rightsholders can't be bothered to put out on disk yet.
I disagree, Dave. The buyer may not have an alternative source for the content, but he still has two alternative choices: to buy or not to buy. Possible ethical issues and expectations of the quality in production are very relevant in this decision.
As for me, I found that the sex tape is not included so I'm pasing on this one. I did once see Kermit's reaction to the "Two Girls One Cup" clip which was pretty hilarious but that's also not included.
I heard piggy and kermit made a sex tape.

You might also find the production quality to be a VHS-transferred piece of garbage with usual lame auto dealership commercials.
All these factors people are mentioning are sort of irrelevant if you want but lack the originals... if that's the only way to get them.
Are these available at Chik-Fil-A?

Update: The reaction tape is on youtube but I can't find the sex tape anywhere.
