Well if anyone has the commercials in their raw VOB form then please maybe upload them somewhere if you can. But it looks like I'll just continue and finish with my version as is.
Thank you Skot, i just got to read the treatment on your site. I'm betting that its probably Lucas', or at least more in the direction of his, original plan for the thing. Then the TV production team shoehorned in their variety television stuff. In that filmfax article you can just see how once Lucas wasn't involved it just all fell apart. Hmm lets put Carney, Korman, and Bea Arthur to get some "name recognition". Lets put Diahann Carroll somewhere because, I'm quoting:"the network wants black people". The original director wanted to keep it fresh and more obscure like it should have been, but they wouldn't let him so he quit. The original story there sounded like it would've been pretty great if they could have stuck to it.
