I was looking for Race to Witch Mountain and one of the sellers also had Hannah Montana listed as brand new and sealed, so I took a chance and both came in.

Everybody Loves Raymond: The Complete Fourth Season, $19.99 at Target

Also, I was surprised to see that at Target, all 7 seasons of The Golden Girls were on sale for $8.99 each. Costco had each season for the same price. If I didn't have them all I would buy them, considering I spent around $40 on each set! Just saying, I know there are a lot of Golden Girls fans here.

I know. Normally with most DVDs (and especially TV season sets) I always wait until they come down in price. But with "Golden Girls" I always made sure I grabbed them as soon as they came out--love them sooo much.

I recently bough Race to Witch Mountain for $19.96 at Wal*Mart with $10 off coupon a couple of days ago. I was really mad since they wouldn't even try to price match Toys 'R Us's price of $24.99. They said they needed an ad but I didn't have one, so I told them to check online or to call them. (That's what the price checkers at Best Buy do.) But they refused and there was a long line of people behind me so I just took the Bluray at $20.

I went to a local Half-Priced Books Store yesterday and purchased The Departed in the Best Buy exclusive steelbook and E.T. the Extra-Terestrial Limited Special Edition for $5.98 each.

Is "Felicity" a good TV show?

"Felicity" is one of the shows I grew up with as a teenager and given that it was about the trials and tribulations of college, I initially though I wouldn't really relate much to it beyond the fascination of "Look, it's Keri Russell from MMC and Kimberly from Power Rangers!". But the college aspect really is just one of the many aspects of the show, it's more about the characters and their interactions and behaviours.

Like most other fans, I stopped becoming a regular viewer Felicity cut her hair in the second season. It wasn't so much that the show's quality declined, more that after a year, I really wasn't that interested in the characters anymore. I'd tune in now and again, usually if an episode promo looked interesting. I forget which season it was, but it "shared" the timeslot with "Jack & Jill", so there was like, a long break between the first half and second half of the season, as they aired "Jack & Jill" during that time instead.

I'd love to revisit the show again, especially since the DVDs suddenly reappeared on store shelves this year with the lower SRP and slimmer (and more consistent) packaging. I know they changed the music on the series, but since I don't even remember what the original songs were, it likely won't be that big a bother to me as it is for "Dawson's Creek", where I have a bigger recollection of music from the early seasons.

I agree- "Felicity" is a really good show. I didn't necessarily watch it every single week, but I didn't stop watching it after she cut her hair. :P

I LOVED the HBO movie. Definitely one of, if not, Drew Barrymore's best performances to date. Jessica Lange was spot-on, as well.

I still have yet to see the two original documentaries, though I've been meaning to for a while.
