If they just re-release the ALREADY released first three seasons, I'm sure we'd all be a whole lot annoyed and angry. I mean, unless season 1's rights are renegotiated and we get the missing songs put back in... at least 90% of the fan base would double dip for it if we get to see Vincent Price's manic performance of "You got a Friend." Sure, you can see it on youtube, but dang if it isn't worth spending another 30 bucks to see that again.
It's just the annoying problems they refuse to disclose regarding the now 3 year gap, especially since there was a 2 year gap between the first and second release. Not only should we have the entire series by now, but we would have had them 2 years before the movie was even released, and we'd be finishing up Muppets Tonight if it was split into 2 seasons.
There is no hope for this being released with the movie's DVD like everyone predicted. We would have had news of that before the DVD's release.
Like I said before, I can wait 10000000000 years to get these DVD's. Fine. I don't care. It's the fact that Disney refuses to disclose on why there's such an annoying hold up that's bugging me now. If it's a music rights issue that has to be re-negotiated, fine. Understandable. if it's just sheer unwillingness to release anything in season set form, inexcusable.
