It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
This is kinda sad:
Several hit TV series of the past, including WKRP in Cincinnati, The Wonder Years and Beverly Hills, 90210, have not been released on DVD because they contain popular music on their soundtracks and the producers did not purchase rights to use the songs for home-video, the Wall Street Journal reported today (Friday). Owners of the shows have since learned that relicensing the rights now is either too expensive or too difficult to negotiate. Sony has produced DVD versions of four seasons of Married ... With Children, but without the theme, Frank Sinatra's "Love and Marriage," because it was unable to reach a licensing deal for it, the newspaper said.
However, it renews my amazement that Miami Vice is out on DVD.
Okay. New project #2 meeting went okay. Now I have to see what Boss² wants to do about #1. If it's not too urgent (ha!) I might get that nap after all. Worst comes to worst, I get a walk away from perfume lady.

I would very much like it to be 4 hours and 17 minutes from now.
Can someone arrange it for me?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

That seems incredibly short-sighted of the owners of the rights -- a popular DVD is only going to generate interest in their music and an unpopular one seems unlikely to do them harm.

miami vice probably had the foresight to secure the rights.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I know people who are afraid Supernatural will never be released on DVD for that same reason.

I don't think they foresaw the market. How many TV shows did you own on video? All I had was what I'd taped. Now, on DVD, I have bought a brazilian. It would be very easy to not see that technology shift coming.
Boss² doesn't seem overly concerned. Which means either he's going with our estimates or I've had the project yanked.
On my short walk I passed a brunet with blond highlights wearing a blazer over a T-shirt. He was wearing loafers, but unlike Sonny Crocket, there were socks. Otherwise, minus a shift in colour palette, pretty good impersonation.

Syndication was the brass ring for TV shows, where they generated mucho profit. Even then the producers didn't always secure the rights for the music, and WKRP syndicated eps were infamous for having generic rock replacing the hits used as the show originally aired.
One reason why Joss preferred to use unsigned bands at the Bronze.
