      Subject: Season 2 DVD question
      
      I sent this yesterday but never saw it go thru.
      
      Does anyone remember when the AnchorBay site said they'd be
      releasing the Season 2 DVD set? I don't remmber if they said spring
      or summer, summer sounds familiar though. I was looking at their
      site earlier today and couldn't find the info. (I know it was
      there awhile ago though.) It was interesting to see in the future
      releases section they said they're going to be releasing Hercules
      and Xena DVD season sets. Since DavisPanzer had been releasing
      video sets of some of the H/X seasons it's not much of a suprise
      that Anchor Bay will be doing those along with the HL sets.

      Actually, it did go through but I figured someone else would be answering.
      Anyway, as I recall, it was sometime in the summer.  I think I found it by
      going to the link for coming attractions.
      
      Hmmm. I'm not finding it now, but I do remember seeing it before. Maybe the
      Highlander store asked them to take it off for now?  I did see that the
      Rick Springfield Nick Night is coming out next month.  We didn't get a
      channel with the Forever Knight series so I've only seen a little bit of it
      when visiting in other cities.

      The DVD?  I've had it for well over a year.  Maybe it's a souped-up version?

      Yes, that's the latest atrocity....  But there's a whole page of photos of
      him & friend taken at that party, at
      http://www.wireimage.com/GalleryListing.asp?navtyp=gls====&evntI=293&PageNum
      =1
      Just type Adrian Paul in the search box to get to his page.  Lots of
      previous stuff, too.
      
      Several years ago, I think AP mentioned in an interview that his Italian
      aunts sent him fantastic silk shirts, & so those poor ladies took some of
      the blame for his highly public sartorial blunders.  It's not just shirts,
      though--he has a propensity toward unpleasantly splashy suits, ties, shoes
      even.  I LIKE bright colors, patterns, etc.--just not HIS, for some reason.
      Even his jewelry often seems...strange & too much.  He's long had an oddly
      retro look going, which is fine, but I don't happen to think it suits him.
      
      He's so blasted gorgeous--anything that pulls the eye away from the lily
      itself is just wrong.
      
      Nina (Or, maybe it's just the subconscious knowledge that AP looks his best
      wearing little-to-nothing at all. Except when Cole was stumbling around in
      those briefs--that was just creepy.)

      Someone posted this here on the list on 12-28-02, as taken from Anchor Bay's
      site--
        HIGHLANDER: THE SERIES - Summer 2003
        Following the recent success with our release of the first season of
        HIGHLANDER: THE SERIES, Anchor Bay Entertainment is happy to report
        that we will be releasing the remaining seasons of the show (as well
        as the spin-off season of HIGHLANDER: THE RAVEN) in 2003 and beyond.
        Look for Season 2 to hit DVD next summer with extra features to be
        announced.

      shrink-wrapped, but still looking askance at my _THICK_ DVD instruction
      manual & wondering if Santa doesn't have a sick sense of humor)

      It's entirely possible that he just has crappy taste in clothes. Or that he wears crappy clothes so that people will notice him. In a town filled with gorgeous people,  one has to do something to stand out - especially when one is not going to be recognized for one's work. He isn't a star..he doesn't have any decent recent work or anything big on the horizon- crappy clothes at  least get you photographed. (How else to explain Lara Flynn Boyle's incredible ugly tutu at the Gold Globes?)
      
      >He's so blasted gorgeous--anything that pulls the eye away from the lily
      >itself is just wrong.
      
      Maybe he needs a woman in his life to pick out his clothes?
      
      > (Or, maybe it's just the subconscious knowledge that AP looks his best
      >wearing little-to-nothing at all.
      
      Nothing subconscious about that at all <g>.  AP has a  handsome face- but one that can look decidedly weird- something about the eyes. The body, OTOH, always looks good.
      
      >Except when Cole was stumbling around in those briefs--that was just creepy.)
      
      Cole was frequently creepy...but not in a "stranger in a strange land" sort of way. (Which would have been appropriate, after all)
      
      Wendy(Was that PW I saw in the XMen2 ads?)(It was dark but the nose looked familiar)(There's a punch line there, I'm sure)

      Yeah, I knew about those, but they are so small that I couldn't see *how*
      horrible that shirt was until I saw the one on ebay.  ;-)
