My Mr. Belvedere Season 4 DVD has finally arrived!






















Oh yeah! It was a long time coming, but it's finally here! My Season 4 DVD of Mr. Belvedere! I had no means to buy it directly from Shout! Factory, where it is available (aside from Ebay), so I asked a friend of mine to buy it for me. If you want your own set, you can order this DVD at this link:

The earlier seasons you can also buy at Shout! or at other online retailers (links on the left column).

I'm excited to watch these episodes all over again. From the episode list, I remember really liking episodes like "Heather's Monk", "Kevin's Model" and "The Diary".

There are no commentaries or interviews, but I'm nevertheless glad that Shout! still decided to continue releasing Mr. Belvedere in complete season sets in spite of the reduced numbers that bought the subsequent sets.. I hope us Mr. Belvedere fans would support Shout! by buying this DVD so they'll go ahead and release the rest of the series.

I will be posting my thoughts on each episode on this blog eventually.

Mr. Belvedere Needs Help!

Hello guys!

What do you think of the Mr. Belvedere DVDs so far? Me, I just love em! Unfortunately, dwindling sales have caused the online retailers (like Amazon) from carrying Season 4. Right now, you can only buy this DVD set from Shout! Factory directly (or from Ebay).

If you've been holding off buying the DVDs, I do suggest you buy Season 4 from Shout! because they need the encouragement to release the rest of the series. I heard that someone from Shout! had been lamenting about the absence of fans who promised to buy the DVDs when they became available.

Well, here it is! If you want to see the rest of the series on DVD, you can help out by ordering Season 4 from the site here:

Ilene Graff in "Castle"

Aaaand I'm BACK! Sorry for being away so long. The BIG JOB has been pretty demanding of late. Hopefully I can squeeze in time here and there to update this blog, specially since my Season 4 of the Mr. Belvedere DVD is finally on it's way! YEAH!

It got hard for me to order when they went Shout Factory! Direct. I really can't blame them, though. In fact, I think they're awesome for continuing to release the DVDs in spite of the numbers, which have since discouraged the big online retailers from picking it up. Boo Amazon! Boo everyone of you online retailer companies you! I'll be back posting detailed reviews of Mr. Belvedere episodes soon enough!

What brought me back? Well, I saw Ilene Graff in Castle! Actually, I'm quite embarrassed to admit that I saw the episode a long time ago (this is the 4th episode of Castle's second season) but Ilene Graff completely flew below my radar. I was staring at her all that time and I didn't even notice. My Belvedere cred has taken a serious hit, folks!

I only noticed it when I saw Castle listed among Ilene's IMDB credits and I was shocked to realize she had been in that episode. I saw it again and now I realize why I didn't notice her. She didn't smile at all, except slightly and briefly in the entire episode. I guess I'm just used to seeing Ilene smile all the time.

Oh yeah, Geocities has finally gone down. So my Mr. Belvedere site there has finally gone kaput. But I have it all saved in my hard drive so I'll be transferring info from the site to this blog slowly.

Be back soon!
