    Starting in 10 minutes at 2 a.m. EDT on the Biography Channel is the repeat of the Biography treatment of the show.

    It was on earlier and I'm watching it out of my DVR right now and it looks like must-see for fans of this great show.

    Loved watching this show.

    Too bad I don't get that channel.

    Set my DVR. Thanks for the heads-up.

    I just finished watching it out of my DVR. I can't believe it's been 16 years since it ended. Much like the last lines of the final show say, life goes by in a flash.

    For only being an hour, the show really captured the essence of the series' six years.

    Going back to Jan. 31, 1988, that pilot episode right after the Super Bowl may have been the best pilot episode of any show ever.

    What a great series. Bought a bunch of eps on bootlegs DVDs a few years ago.

    I would die for that show to be out on DVD. I read that it has the same problem as "WKRP In Cincinnati," in that the music rights are the major hangup and probably why we won't see it on DVD for a long time -- if ever.

    Just get the rights for the theme, and everything will be good. Right?

    This is like asking if there are any fans of breathing out there.

    Not necessarily.

    That was said more tongue in cheek. Forgot the blue font.

    Great show, one of the shows I would buy every season of if it came out on DVD.
