Petition for Every Episode of BBQ U From All Seasons

I would love to get complete sets.
Ya' never find the really interesting stuff on a greatest hits album.

My question is, if the time, effort and money have already been spent in making the episodes in the first place why not put them all into publication for sales?

They just started showing BBQ U in my area, and Primal grill (twice a day on average) not too long ago. No more than ever, I want the DVD. I found it on the site so I just need to break down and buy it.

Just an update...I haven't been able to find any willing partners here on the site, but I have started digitally archiving every episode I can find. So far, I have parts of seasons 2 and 4 and by the end of the summer I should have most of the episodes. What can/should be done with it then, who knows?

I guess I missed it when (if) it ran here. I emailed my local pbs about BBQU or Primal Grill, but I never got a reply.

4th of July marathon on Create (which is a PBS sub-channel here)...they're showing all of season 4 of BBQU. Hope you all enjoy your 4th.

Lucky you - I really want the DVDs now because I can't seem to find the show anymore. I had been watching it on Maryland Public Television for a while, but the cable company moved that to a digital channel and I only have basic cable so now I can't see the show at all except for clips on YouTube.

I went to the schedule web page for the BBQ U TV show and it doesn't look like it is even broadcast in this area anymore. Maybe it is operator headspace, but I can't find the show anywhere now.

Does anybody in the DC/VA/MD area know where we can see the shows?

I think this is a great idea. Rarely on in this area so would love to have the DVD's. This would be must see TV.

I'd like to add another suggestion here too.

How about Volume 2 of Primal Grill Season One? Right now the Season One DVD only has seven episodes of that season, and that's only half the season. I actually feel a little bit disappointed as I saw two of the episodes that weren't on that DVD and they were great.

The way I see it is this: you wouldn't want to buy only half a season of Lost, now would you? So why not offer the second half of Primal Grill Season One? (And while I'm at it, why not include all of the episodes from Season Two on the new Primal Grill Season Two DVD set instead of half oF that season as well?)

Well as I'm still not sure about the legality of sharing the shows that I have, I now have at least half of seasons 2-4 of BBQU and all of season 1 of Primal Grill and the first half of season 2 of primal grill. I hesitate to share the primal grill episodes because I'd like to see them finished being released on DVD...BUT if it's not going to happen, then I think the combined power of the community here should be able to get every episode of BBQU and primal grill for everybody to watch, relive, and learn from. Like I've mentioned before, if anybody has any episodes on their DVR or VHS tapes, or recorded to a DVD, please let me know so we can compare notes. Thanks!!

Yes, my vote is to have BBQ - U available on DVD - ALL of the episodes, besides "The Best Of". I love the Grill Cam that seems to be missing from "Primal Grill" (Yes, I have that DVD set, too.)
