Title: Question About Jim Hensen's Storytellers

Okay, I was in Best Buy and I saw this Jim Hensen's Storytellers dvd. It boasted that it contained ALL 9 episodes. It was priced at $16.99, I didn't really look closely at it because I was also shopping for a new vcr and looking at dvd copy software at the time. I noted the price because I wanted to see if it was cheaper at WM. Well, I found one at WM, I bought it for $14.88 and when I was looking at it in the car, it said it contained ALL 4 episodes. So, I'm wondering if anyone knows of another new release of Jim Hensens's Storytellers...or are there actually more than 4 episodes of the Greek Myths? Will there be other releases?

And just for the heck of it: Anyone want to sell their complete first season of Farscape on dvd to me for half it's worth? LOL

Woah. I did see that the "Greek Myths" were being released (that one is listed in my new releases post) on September 7th. I don't know if that is all of them or there will be more released. Hopefully someone out there can answer this question. Of course, if I come across any info I will pass it along to you :)

I read your post and that is why I went looking for the Storytellers in the first place. :D I did some searching online and I think that there are two separate dvds...one that is Greek Myths (which I bought) and the other has 9 other stories on it. I am going back for it. Heard anything about the Fraggles being released on dvd???

The studio are not currently producing it on dvd yet.
Go to this link and if the studio sees that people are waiting for it, that should kick them into gear, lol :
Amazon.com - Fraggle Rock (1983)

Oh and I just wanted to tell you that I just saw that there *are* two different Storyteller Collections:

1. Jim Henson's The Storyteller Collection (1987)

And the newly released:
2. Jim Henson's The Storyteller - Greek Myths (1997)
