If I don't get this from a family member for Christmas, there will be you-know-what to pay. Posted by Sterling (Member # 8096) on :
Looks nice, but I suspect refusing to offer the final season seperate from the complete set is going to push a fair number of fans to piracy.

From what the review says, a season 4 set may be out Fall of 2009.
Piracy...bootleg copies of near every Henson-era Muppet project have been available online for some time. I've even seen "The Complete Muppet Show" DVD sets offered on Amazon.com now and then, even though the official release of that is probably 3-4 years off. I guess they're hoping more will want the complete series now than are willing to buy each separately. We'll see.

The closest thing I read was
quote:Hopefully, 2009 will bring the release of a separate Season 4 (even if the discs are identical to the ones included here). Our hunch is that Season 4 will eventually be released separately, likely next fall.
Which sounds more like wishful thinking than any sort of word from on high.
To be clear, I'm not encouraging piracy. I just think failing to provide the faithful who bought the first three seasons with so much as certainty of a season 4 release, let alone a release date, is probably a bad business decision.

That's why I said "may be."
The company hasn't said "never", so I'm optimistic.
