Where did you buy it? Ed Sullivan isn't part of my era either, but I became a "late fan" after watching the TV specials and clip trip shows in the '90s. I even saw the Christmas special Bob Newhart hosted that featured the Muppets as part of the guest list. I live in downtown Toronto, btw, so I hope I can get it at one of the stores like HMV instead of ordering it through Amazon.

Looks like I may have to order it through Amazon after all. There aren't any Cinema 1 stores in Toronto. However I managed to find another Ed Sullivan DVD at Bay St. Video, a store that boasts itself as having "Toronto's biggest DVD collection." This DVD contains the edited version of a Kermit skit that's not on Muppets Magic! ("Music Hath Charms") It's the 1st Ed Sullivan retrospective hosted by Carol Burnett, and I remember watching it when it aired on CBS about 12 yrs ago.

Can't wait to get Vol. 2, the Muppets Magic and the Holiday Greetings DVDs! If there's a place you know in Toronto that might sell any of these titles please let me know.

That's OK, I'll just order it from Amazon because it turns out there are other DVDs I want to buy that don't appear to be available here. I've looked at the major record stores downtown w/o success.

I got mine yesterday, I ordered it a week ago from a canadian online store.
I must say that this DVD is well worth the money spent on it. Except that poor cover.
It was a great thing to see those old skits.
I just hope they will realease another DVD with the missing skits and The great Santa Claus switch.

Hey Prickle, where's a Cinema 1 store? $19.99 is the lowest price of heard for this so far.
Someone told me they saw it at DVD Wave for $23.99.
