hmm... I see... but I was hoping for a better quality, sorry but that episode is very pixelated in many spots.

By the way, TellTale, don't let anything here sway you from contacting Nelvana! If you can get the rights to those DVDs, I'll definitely be buying multiple copies regardless of whether or not the episodes are available on VHS/YouTube!

My offer to remaster the episodes for DVD still stands.

I don't see why. Nelvana is just sitting on the episodes. They hardly have any space on their web site dedicated to Sam and Max, and they certainly don't show it anywhere. I can'timagine that it would be so difficult to coax them into selling or licensing the episode rights. They even have a licensing area right on the web site.

LucasArts ... well, that's not a fair comparison. Lucas has this thing called an "ego" that makes him think of some really, really stupid things, like having Greedo fire first.

I am getting this directly from the VHS tapes that were released in Canada but now sit proudly on my desk thanks to someone on eBay who doesn't mind exporting goods to U.S. buyers ...

Sam & Max TM and © Steve Purcell
Series © 1998 Nelvana Limited. All Rights Reserved.


Unless Nelvana has sold the rights since these videotapes were manufactured, they own the rights to the series. Fox Kids licensed them for broadcast from Nelvana, who licensed the rights from Steve Purcell. Just because Fox Kids showed them means nothing. After all, Star Trek is shown on G4. That doesn't mean that G4 now owns the franchise. There merely licensed the rights from Paramount. Look at it this way, too. Steve Purcell owns the characters. TellTale doesn't own the characters just because they're releasing a Sam & Max game.

With respect to cartoons from the 90s ... when the cartoons were manufactured is not the issue. It's percieved cost/profit/demand that drives the decision to release any entertainment medium. We need to get on Steve's and Nelvana's case to let them know that there is demand. I'm actually kind of surprised the Steve hasn't gone to them already and asked how much it would cost to buy the episodes. Well, maybe he has. I don't know, obviously.

Remember, Fox beought back The Family Guy when they saw how well the DVDs were selling. I doubt that Sam and Max has the same amount of fans - you never knw, though - but if enough of us speak out, maybe we could persuade Nelvana to release them.

Oh, don't bother going to their web site. The e-mail address that they have keeps bouncing back with a failure. /

How is this thread still alive? Not that piracy is a good thing but... I've noticed that most of the Sam and Max episodes happen to be on eMule (The P2P file sharing software thingy). If this has been noted already, sorry, but there's no way in hell I'm going to go check throguh all the previous pages. I'm a busy guy. Got Final Fantasy's to play.

Hey guys, sorry, I'm going to have to close this thread. I asked once for the discussion of pirated copies of the show to end but it hasn't. If you guys really want to talk about passing around pirated TV shows please do it privately or on another forum.

I know you're all talking about it because you like Sam & Max a ton, and episodes of the Sam & Max TV show are hard to come by, but this isn't the place to swap links and download locales. Hopefully you can understand!

Thanks,


Jake
