Will someone please tell me why all my favorite childhood memories are available for sale but only at incredibly high prices I would never be able to afford? I mean besides to tempt me mercilessly.

GHOSTWRITER guys. Come ON. But... 385 dollars? Freaking ouch. Ghostwriter was awesome enough as it is, but if that's not enough to convince you,

Awww Ghostwriter, that was fun :) I miss that show. It's sort of the same dilemma Daria and My So Called Life faces, both selling for hundreds and hundreds; beyond insane.

It's unfortunate that the companies that own these rights aren't intelligent enough to offer them cheaply to our generation now, but just wait a few years and the 'nostalgia' of the 90s will catch up and we'll buy them all like hotcakes. We have to get more "adult" first :P

[metalphoenix]

PBS had really awesome kid shows. They were QUALITY. Just like cartoons in the 90s. I haven't looked into buying Daria :/ Why are television producers evil?

I hope that nostalgia catches up right when I get a steady job so I can afford to go crazy :D

[soundandvision]

hahah same here!!!

[yenooy]

hahaha i heart huckabees

Dude! I friggin loved Ghostwriter when I was growing up. When you find out where to buy it from, let me know.

[metalphoenix]

So far it looks like just that GPN place is selling them at all. Ebay has random episodes for sale, but I don't know if I'd trust them not to be just recorded off tv. But if I find a cheaper place someday, I'll definitely post about it.

Haha!! That Julia Stiles clip kicks all kinds of ass. I actually remember that episode!

[metalphoenix]

Doesn't it? I have to thank xkcd.com for bringing it to my attention.

*farts on Julia Stiles*

OH OH OH

[metalphoenix]

*rolls eyes* You know who else farts? LEX.

I cannot believe that Bill Nye is so much money.
I now know that if I ever see any of the Bill Nye tapes at a garage sale, that I should snap them up and sell them on ebay. haha.

And I mean, COME ON! They're not even DVDs! VHS, pshhh.

[metalphoenix]

I know, I don't understand how they can justify pricing them that high. I mean, like every science teacher has those tapes. I want to just raid a middle school.

[girlxtragedy]

I bet some of the teachers at Larson/Athens would let you borrow them. & you could make illegal copies or something, haha.

[metalphoenix]

Maybe. Larson would have them; I don't know about Athens though. I could ask the Larson teachers, but I don't they even remember me haha.

Also, apparently the DVDs are $3250. *doesn't comprehend*

I think I saw an episode of Ghostwriter and it really, really, REALLY freaked me out. Something about ooze I think. ...or that was something completely different.

Apparently one of my bro's friend's teacher only shows Bill Nye stuff to his class and doesn't teach them or anything.

[yenooy]

I KNOW THE EPISODE YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT!!! WITH THE BUNNIES WHO WERE DYING IN THE GARDEN! AND THE TOXIC WASTE!

i was forever scared of ghostwriter after that, and i could never stand the phrase "in the garden" because they had a flashback where one of the girls remembers everyone they interviewed saying "in the garden"

yeah.

[dragonnite55555]

Ah, so it was Ghostwriter. Although I don't remember anything about bunnies. Just the ooze stuff. It was all a long time ago. And I think that was the only episode I ever saw.

[metalphoenix]

Aww that's sad. I don't remember it being that scary, but then I don't remember it very much at all. Just the random scenes. I totally remember them interviewing people though. And writing in their little sleuth books with very kid-like handwriting.
