Oh man, has it been a good month for TV shows on DVD or what? Honestly, between the Olympics and the pile of new sets that have streeted in the past few weeks, I’ve barely seen regular TV since before Michael Phelps took his first dip. But as awesome as it is to have some of my favoritest shows to watch at whim, a few of them inspire a sense of melancholy I like to call the “I Wish They’d Release ‘Em Blues.” —Damian HolbrookGossip Girl — I dare you to find me a boring episode from the Upper East Side story of teens and the text-messages that ruin reps. Oh, it is hot! And even though I was totally Team Serena when it started, watching the set over again, I can totally see why Blair was so miffed with her BFF. Ho slept with her man before she could! That ain’t right.Makes Me Wish For…Jack & Bobby, the WB’s time-jumping tale of two brothers, one of whom would go on to be Pres, the other who wouldn’t go on at all. Soo good. So,...

Did the Waltons scale the entire mountain? Could anyone keep up with the Keatons?

OK, first off, how fun was last week’s interview with Joss Whedon? You guys went to town on that one. Honestly, I haven’t taken that many hits since high school, if y’all know what I mean.Which brings me to this week’s bidness. Being November, the month of Thanksgiving, I’ve decided to devote each of the next four columns to shows I am grateful to have on DVD. And since high school is on my mind these days—just had my 20th class reunion last weekend (and let me tell ya, we still look good!)—the first batch are all shows from back when the Bonner boys were wearing our Capezio jazz shoes, thin leather ties and trying to understand why all the Prendie girls thought their massive Aquanetted walls of hair and liquid eyeliner looked good. So for Jerry Leyden, Chuck Wurzbach, Art Hoath and the rest of the crew, I offer you the best of the Class of 1987!The Cosby Show By its third season, Denise was just about to show off her Angel Heart (and more), Rudy ...

Justine Bateman, Men in Trees
In a candid TV Guide interview, former '80s teen star Justine Bateman opens up about making mayhem on ABC's Men in Trees (Thursdays at 10 pm/ET), her kids, and... knitting sweaters for Courtney Love?!
TV Guide: How did you land the role of Lynn on Men in Trees? Justine Bateman: This is going to sound so made up, but I was on an airplane and [series creator] Jenny Bicks was also on the plane. We didn't have a conversation. She saw me, called my agents and said, "Oh, can she play Lynn?"
TV Guide: Lynn was a character on the show before we even met her. She was discussed for months, right? Bateman: Yeah. Sometimes in theater, they'll talk about your character a lot before

Meredith Baxter, David Birney, Bridget Loves Bernie
Question: A long time ago there was a sitcom set in New York (I think). It involved a Jewish boy and a Catholic girl who got married. (I might have their religions reversed.) Of course, the usual problems developed. I want to say it was called Beth and Bernie. Am I right? Thanks.
Answer: Close, A.C. Actually, you're thinking of Bridget Loves Bernie, a sitcom that debuted on CBS in September 1972 in a cushy slot between All in the Family and Mary Tyler Moore. David Birney (St. Elsewhere, the TV version of Serpico) play
