Well a number of reasons cheif among them being that sadly the show is no longer on television and thus is no longer fresh in the viewers mind and therefore the demand isn't out there. Also I think the last set didn't sell as well as hoped. It's too bad I loved the final season.
I think some of there best work was during that season. I was able to buy most of the episodes from that season on iTunes though. I still haven't found the Gay Right vs Christian Right episode but luckily I have the episode on tape. Its also a shame because most MXC viewers don't know that this season ever existed. They think the last sets "Volume 5" means Season 5 and therefore they have all the episodes. Pity really.

Pity the demand isn't out there,everyone went crazy when season 1 came out.They had most episodes of season 5 on YouTube but they've been removed AND so have the clips Spike TV had on their website  :'(If it wasn't for wikipedia and internet episode guides,there would be no evidence there was a 5th season |

I think that's another half of the problem. Because of the way the dvd's are labeled and the way the final seaso was aired most people who are fans think that they have the entire series. Pity. Spike TV pretty much disowned the show at a certain point. I remember they moved mxc from Thurday night at 9 (A decent timeslot) to Midnight on Fridays (A time when no one is home). Luckily though Spike doesn't own the copyrights to MXC so they don't make any money off of DVD sales.  I hope to burn my episodes of Season 5 to DVD. I might even include an original episode of Takeshi's Castle to make it like an official dvd. Anybody interested? |

I have only managed to find a few of the season 5 episodes. I have been looking for these episodes for years and, of course, missed them on itunes as I have never used itunes. Is there any one out there who can help me find the files for season 5 of MXC? It seems so unlikely that these episodes would just disappear. I absolutely love this show and have watched the DVDs I own to the point that I know the majority of their skits by heart. Please, any help would be beyond appreciated.

That's funny that you said that as I have already tried. Pretty good montage, eh? We've messaged back and forth a few times since 4/3/12 and he said itunes had them but now I'm out of luck. Thanks for the thought though. Great minds think alike.

Yes I live in the you.S. Where are you from Notundercovercop32 and General Jonnie? I really don't need DVDs of them if sending the files over the internet would be easier/quicker. Tomorrow is my birthday if that helps persuade you to send them right away. ;D
By the way I can't believe there are others out there thinking of making more MXCs. This is something I have been thinking of since it went off the air. If I were to ever get rich enough to buy the rights for MXC I'm going to. I'd try to rehire the four who made the show first off. Ah, dreams.

That is an odd correction that if you type the letter you, which I just did, it spells out you. Where is this site from? I'm now modifying this message to try something. you with a period at the end. you. That's strange, it let my first one slide but not the next two.

That would be awesome, I own the itunes versions, but a DVD(s) would still be worth it, especially if you have the Religious Right vs Gay Rights Episode which itunes didn't include. I'm in California so hopefully you could send the episodes over here.  |
