'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.
I've heard music rights are much easier to come by outside the US. Considering other countries have shown or are showing every episode of The Inside, are the chances of a DVD release abroad better? I'd gladly import the series if that were the only way to get it.
P.S. Does anyone have an mp3 (preferably 192 kbps) of The Inside Main Theme by Robert J. Kral & Andy Ross?

Since the company that owns the show and (presumably) the record companies and artists that own the music are American, I doubt that official foreign distribution would be any easier than domestic.
Can we all get back to being resigned that there aren't going to be any The Inside DVD's? At least until we hear from a power higher up.
In the meantime, when will there be a DVD of Allyson's book?

It wouldn't be easier,but it's not unreasonable to think that the Australian DVD rights (just for example) would be cheaper than the American DVD rights, but it depends entirely on the record company and how they like to do business. (And also whether Fox thinks there's an Australian DVD market to begin with.)
(I should mention that I know nothing about music licensing firsthand -- I'm extrapolating from my relatively thorough knowledge of broadcast footage licensing.)
If you think that a dollar spent on *Inside* DVDs brings you back $1.05, while a dollar spent on *The Apprentice Gets Married And Swaps Wives With Donald Trump* has the 10% possibility of returning $100, it's stupid to spend the money on *The Inside*. You do have limited resources, and you invest them where you think you'll get the best return.
I hate DVDs. TV should just be beamed to the inside of my head. Then I wouldn't have to argue about whether we watch *Highlander* or *Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid*. Sometimes a person just needs cheese, y'know? (P.S. BCatSK has one of the best establishing scenes ever.)

Speaking of, Tim owes me a blurb.
Did you all know there's a long story about Tim in my book? Yep.
Still, no blurb.
Fury wrote me a blurb. But I guess only Emmy nominated writers can write blurbs.
Still, no blurb.
Well, that just means he'll have to record the audio version of your book, right?

For example, how do you account for a show like Point Pleasant getting a DVD release? Clearing the music rights for the DVD wasn't any less of an issue then.

His blurb, like his new show, is a work in progress.

Yes.
But oddly, I don't have the DVDs.
