Greetings from Videoranch!

The street date for the new Elephant Parts on DVD is March 18th. But
Videoranch has it available now! It’s got a great new commentary by
Nez. Plus, the sound and picture quality are improved. The cool
thing about DVD is the chapter selection feature. Every clip in the
Elephant Parts DVD is a separate chapter, so you can go directly to
your favorite part and watch it over and over.

The MP3 live version of “Listen to the Band” from the Gretsch
concert is available again. It’s a worthwhile download. Check out
the sample.

We’ve been upgrading the quality of our videos at the Formosa
Diner. Check out the Daily Specials and you will see what we mean.
If you’re on a fast connection, choose “Large”. Here’s a sample.
Choose “Small” if you’re on at a slower connection.

We have 2 new sale items this week:
Pretty Much Your Standard Ranch Stash is $12.95, regularly $16.95.
Sample Tantamount to Treason is $11.95, regularly $16.95. Sample

That’s it, for now. Give us a holler if you need anything.

Sincerely,
Your friends at Videoranch

On page 64 of the February 14th issue of Entertainment Weekly, there
is a picture of the Monkees and a brief mention of the "modern"
Monkees show currently in development. The text reads:

Bea Arthur, call your agent: Several shows from TV's past may get a
second lease on life this fall. NBC--which has already ordered new
episodes of the '80s cop drama Hunter to air on Saturdays this
spring--is developing a modern-day Monkees with American Idol
producer Simon Fuller. Fox has a remake of Mister Ed in the works,
UPN is working with Aaron Spelling on a new version of his '80s hit
Hotel, and The WB wants to bring back yet another incarnation of
Tarzan. Though it's only in the script stage, NBC Entertainment
president Jeff Zucker is already singing a happy tune about The
Monkees, an updated version of the classic '60s comedy that will
chronicle the search for four young men who can sing, dance, and act
goofy for the camera. (The gang may even recut "I'm a
Believer".) "Look at what's going on in TV right now, with
unscripted programming and musical talent," says Zucker. "The
Monkees combines all of that."

Best wishes to all,
Kelly

I just ran across a wonderful article in the February 2003 issue of
Harp Magazine written by Peter Buck of R.E.M. entitled "Reflections:
Peter Buck on the Monkees". A quick quote: " I could think of a
thousand groups and a thousand albums, but you know, I hate to admit
it, but The Monkees' TV show was probably my biggest influence."

Worth searching out a copy of the magazine for. It's on the last
page.
