They took out the lame laugh track, put in the pilot, and the disc has 4 audio commentaries by the creator. Woo!

Sounds like Anchor Bay did a really bang up job on the transfer. I'll check out the R4 release whenever, if ever that is.

I used to have a couple of episodes on Laserdisc. Not sure if I am going to buy this set. Maybe I'll go with torrents. :D

Ha ha, this set rocks. The video is a bit soft, but otherwise this is a great package.

First three discs have 6 episodes, fourth disc has 4 episodes. Each disc has a commentary for one episode by Alan Spencer, the creator. He's pretty amusing to listen to, and seems to harbor a real dislike for republicans, Mr. Belvedere, and Malcolm in the Middle.

Bonuses on the fourth disc include a recently put together 32 minute documentary ("Go Ahead, Make Me Laugh"), a bunch of old commercial spots, and an extended pilot episode. There are scripts, promo photos, and other stuff as DVD-ROM content.

Man, watching this show brings me right back to the late 80's again, skipping Miami Vice and Cosby because I thought those shows sucked compared to Sledge Hammer.

"Real men don't need women." , "Sledge! Without a woman, you wouldn't have been born!" , "Prove it."

"Sledge, I bet you think all women should be barefoot and pregnant" , "Nonesense, Doro, I believe women should be able to wear shoes."

"We're here at the scene of a liquor store robbery that was thwarted by the man beside me, Inspector Sledge Hammer. Inspector Hammer, tell us what happened.

Well, Miss, I was in this store when two thugs entered and threatened the owner with shotguns. At that time, I drew my Magnum and killed them both. Then I bought some eggs, and some milk, and some of those little... cocktail weenies.

Inspector Hammer, was what you did in that store absolutely necessary?

Oh, yes, I had no groceries at all."

Awesome to hear that the package actually has some bonuses to it. One would think that a DVD based on a really obscure show would be just shitted out onto the market.
