SitcomsOnlline.com has posted in last Thursday's News Blog that The Drew Carey Show will be among a new group of sitcom titles in their "Televsion Favorites" lineup of DVD releases in 2006. These are typically a single-disc release for around $10 SRP with anywhere from 3 to 6 episodes from the show featured on the disc. Blog writer Pavan Badal says that this is "promised", but doesn't indicate that this is a hard announcement just yet. It sounds like he was told by his sources that these releases are meant to test the waters for possible season-set releases later on, and so he (and we) urge you to pick up on this if you're a fan of the show at all. Stay tuned for further developments!
