Am I reading right? Time Warner - Parent company of WB or vise versa or not at all? So confusing!

This should bring on OZ and Sex and the City on Blu, among other shows.

Oh, and let's not forget about Rome and the good old Tales from the Crypt series. The Sporanos is already out with season 6.

As proof, here's a press release from 2004...when Warner announced they'd be sitting on the fence:

I'd like to see Band of Brothers and From The Earth To The Moon both come out. Band of Brothers is probably my favorite and most watched DVD.
