Yet another artifact from my childhood is coming out on DVD. I figure eventually I'll actually be able to live out the latter half of my life as a kind of rerun of the first part. This, my friends, is my dream. Anyway, one of my favorite cartoons from my youth is coming out on DVD in November, Dungeons and Dragons. The series ran for twenty-seven episodes from 1983 to 1986 and featured the voice talents of Happy Day's Donny Most and Willie Aames of Eight is Enough and Charles in Charge (you know, before he became Bible Man). Actually, maybe Aames left the show because all the sword and sorcery nonsense didn't fit with his Christian viewpoints. That's absolutely not true, but we should try spreading that rumor around anyway. The set comes out November 7 and will retail for $49.98, which isn't too bad for a full series.Complete Dungeons and Dragons series coming to DVD

Got this retro-urge to watch this earlier this year so I just imported the boxset from the UK. Cost a little more, with the exchange rate, IIRC, but at least I didn't have to wait all that extra time for a domestic release. And you have to have a region-free DVD player, of course.

It's playing on Saturday and Sunday evenings at 6 and 11 central time on the Toon Disney channel. I've been watching for a few weeks now.
Why waste the $50 when you can watch it for free? It's not like it really holds up to repeated viewing.

How about that final episode that was written but never produced?

There was a rumor that it was going to be made recently, but I think that was just a bunch of loose internet talk. Still, though....interesting stuff.
