Hi All,
Does anyone know if transcripts for the Oprah show are available anywhere?
They have season 25 on the Oprah website but nothing prior to that. I found a
source that said Burrelle's distributes them but on their website they don't
mention Oprah.
Cheers,

I assume Harpo productions would know best. Can't you email them?

Video is the catch-all term I use to refer to the wide variety of formats

All the recent discussion of videos on VHS but not on DVD kinda
blurred that the master list is broader than that and includes storied
films that never made it out on video in any form. Thus the Day the

I don't think the film is in legal limbo, it is just that Lewis has no
intention of ever allowing it out. Ironically one truly great film which is
