That one is in the next round of After School Special releases. The first 2 were packaged as Trapper Keepers, and the ones that came out in January were packaged as lockers. smile Very cool. I snatched them up as soon as they were released, because I grew up watching them, and because they were under $10 for a DVD with 4 episodes. Great fun! We've watched them at work, and I will have to remember to watch them again soon.


On this release:



...there is an episode called Thank You Jackie Robinson, starring a 15-year-old Felicity Huffman, billed as Flicka Huffman! falloff
