Wiil MTV be releasing the taped Broadcast of "Legally Blonde: the musical"? Now that the show is closing I thought they may be releasing it?

Also, will "The Seach for the next Elle Woods" be released on DVD?

Post your thoughts and comments?

It would've been announced already. It's been a long time

Nope. MTV doesn't own the rights to the LEGALLY BLONDE taping therefore they can not release it commercially on DVD. Also, though MTV does release on DVD some of their series and some of their reality shows, its unlikely that THE SEARCH FOR ELLE WOODS is even in consideration. It has too much of a limited demographic which isn't profitable in their eyes, unfortunately.

I think it would be a great idea if they released the taping to DVD and sold it at the tour stops like CATS does.

Who does hold the rights? The producers, Jerry?

They COULD release it on DVD, but the producers would have to go back to the unions and negotiate the dvd release, which they won't do until, at the very least, the tour ends.

I guess now that the show will close soon, DVD could be released?

Dear god, I hope so.

They could sell the MTV recording and LB:TM-TSFTNEW as a package.
