These two tapes are recorded in the low-resolution American NTSC format; if you life outside the US and Japan, you need a special multi-system VCR and TV to play them. I bought my tapes at Tower Video in New York City in July 1996. They were on sale for only $1.99 each (!) at all BEST BUY stores in August 1997, for example in Wilmington, Delaware, (302) 993-0495 (thanks to Kristin Zerbe). |
The tapes / DVDs were to be ordered via Amazon.com (January 1998, Nov 2002). They were brought out by the same company that published the 5 CD-Box, see above. The DVDs were playable in all regions.
November 2003: There is a poll on the Fox's site. So vote to get The Wonder Years out on DVD:
http://www2.foxhome.com/tvdvd/poll/. Amazon.com offers alert for DVD release. Please use it; it is a vote for a release.
November 2005: A German DVD of the first season is to be released by Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment on 13 March 2006. The episodes of all six seasons have already been cleared by the German Film Classification Authority.
October 2006: No DVD yet in Germany nor the US.
