I don't think there are any plans, but you should ask at alt.tv.seinfeld.

At the "Frasier" NG people have asked about a DVD release of the show and David Lee, one of the show's producers who posts there, has said Paramount doesn't anticipate a DVD release would be profitable.

As has been discussed previously, it's pretty unlikely that Seinfeld will get a DVD release especially since it will begin it's cable run next year. Speaking of which, does anybody know when the episodes will begin to be run on TBS, will it be Jan. 1st?

Frasier is a totally dfferent dynamic, although it is funny too. Seinfeld is a "cult" show, that just happened to be watched by millions. If anyone thought that DVD would be unprofitable for SEINFELD, they're off their rocker. I don't see how any syndication plans could come into play. Look at X-Files and Sopranos, or really, ANY old Classic.Numerous shows can be taped--some are on 4 to 6 times a day with all the cable. Howvere, we collectors want the episodes in pristine condition on a medium that won't degrade like tape. I have all but 12 Seinfeld episodes on tape, but would still shell out the $$ for DVD.

Well with Digital TV a G4 (with DVD-R), Final Cut Pro and DVD Studio Pro you can build you own Seinfeld DVD library... each DVD-R costs $10. That's what I am doing.

LOT OF WORK--good idea though. I'm glad to be done with my Seinfeld taping. I fall behind with my new taping list too much as it is.(Simpsons, JUST Shoot Me, X-Files,Raymond,and Norm)
