To modify a line from an old SNL routine of Al Franken's, the next few months are
looking good for me, Adam Finley. First I find out Wonder Showzen is coming out on
DVD, and now the first season of another favorite show of mine, the sorely missed Dr. Katz, Professional
Therapist, is also getting the digital versatile treatment. Dr. Katz, like the first season of Home
Movies, was filmed in SquiggleVision, an animation technique in which the characters would wiggle and vibrate on
the screen. It featured comedian Jonathan Katz as a therapist to several stand-up comics who would come on the show and
basically just do shtick. The first season comes out May 9 and will feature audio commentary from co-creators Jon Katz
and Tom Snyder (not this Tom Snyder, a
different one) and guest stars Ray Romano and Dave Attell. According to TvShowsonDVD it's unclear as to whether or not H. Jon Benjamin, who played
Katz's son Ben, will be featured on the audio commentary.Dr. Katz coming to DVD in May

This is glorious news and ABOUT TIME. I have every episode of Dr Katz on VHS and have refused to give up my VCR strictly so I could watch Katz. Needless to say the quality of the tapes is terribe...can't wait for DVDs!
