Shout Factory reissues "limited edition" DVD of "Freaks & Geeks," charges Arm & Leg

7935_s While writing my annual holiday DVD roundup, I noticed that the same "Yearbook Edition" DVD of "Freaks & Geeks" that came out a few years ago is out again -- at a nice hefty $130 price. This reviewer takes it apart pretty well and advises picking up a used copy of the complete series instead.

What's working for me this week

Waiting for NBC to be sold. Preferably to someone who knows how to run a network.
The audacity to remake. Over three nights beginning Sunday, AMC is airing a new take on the 1960s boggler “The Prisoner,” a task not for timid cable channels. See my review in Sunday's A&E.
"Andy Barker, P.I." on DVD. With the release earlier this year of “Andy Richter Controls the Universe,” our collection of the funniest sitcoms nobody watched is now complete.

... AND WHAT'S NOT

Writing ill of the dead. Richard Schickel gratuitously roasted the new Robert Altman biography (author Mitchell Zuckoff is at the Plaza Branch on Monday), calling the director an angry, drug-addled auteur of "historical curiosities."
Rupert Murdoch's war on fair use. The Fox chieftain doesn't believe anyone should be allowed to quote or mashup his content without paying for it. Sadly for him, recent court rulings have all gone the opposite direction.
Waiting nine months for "Mad Men" season four to start.
