In an effort to help promote the release of the Life Goes On (The Complete First Season) DVD - this website (Caught in Kellie's Web) was donated a set of the DVD's (from Warner Bros. Marketing) to give away (for FREE!**)

I have seen these DVD's and the entire package is TOP NOTCH. The packaging is exquisite, the interface to the shows is inspiring. There are, of course, no commercials, no fuzziness that's usually associated with VHS tapings of the show, and like any other DVD you can jump to any show you'd like to see (or see again.)

It's just really, really great for this to have finally happened!

The winner of the 1st set was chosen and CONGRATULATIONS goes to Alice from Indianapolis, IN!!

Even if you didn't win, you can still buy a copy of Life Goes On Season 1 on DVD! Isn't this AWESOME?!

I was NOT paid to say or do any of this - I know that the release of Season 2 (and 3 & 4) depends on how well LGO Season 1 sells now.

So support our favorite actress and favorite television show! Click here for the official LGO DVD website!

Scroll a little lower to see an Official Press Release concerning this truly great television show! NOTE: the press release states a Suggested Retail Price at $39.98 - but if you go to the website link (on the OWN IT NOW link)- you'll see that's it's actually $10 off that already! They are also currently offering FREE SHIPPING - I think this has GOT to be a limited time offer...so hurry and save money while you can!

Thank you for your time and support.

This website is working in conjunction with Warner Bros. Marketing to give away a copy Life Goes On: The Complete First Season to help promote subsequent releases of LGO Seasons (hopefully 2, 3 & 4!)

I wasn't required to give away a copy of this show, I just wanted to do something for the fans of LGO!

This promotion is a way to further expose the release of this AWESOME television show! Life Goes On always has been respected as one of the best shows ever on television - so the release of it on DVD was practically inevitable (and I heard it was almost lobbied for in Congress! ;)

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

WARNER HOME VIDEO SET TO RELEASE THE GROUNDBREAKING SERIES “LIFE GOES ON: THE COMPLETE FIRST SEASON” DVD ON MAY 9, 2006

ABC’s Best Loved Family Drama Comes to DVD for the First Time

BURBANK, CA (January 30, 2006) – After thirteen years, the Thatchers have finally returned to warm our hearts with Warner Home Video’s (WHV) release of Life Goes On: The Complete First Season on May 9, 2006 for $39.98 SRP. This groundbreaking family drama starring Chris Burke (“Corky”), Kellie Martin (“Becca”), Patti LuPone (“Libby”), Bill Smitrovich (“Drew”) and Monique Lanier (“Paige”) was the first network series to address difficult social issues including Down Syndrome, AIDS and teenage sex. In its inaugural season, Chris Burke was presented with a Young Artist Award and was nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role in a Series. And actress Vivica Lindfors received an Emmy for “Outstanding Guest Actress” for her portrayal of Mrs. Doubcha in the episode entitled “Save the Last Dance for Me.” Life Goes On: The Complete First Season includes all 22 episodes and bonus features in a 6-disc collection. Order due date is April 4, 2006.

Meet the Thatchers - Drew, Libby, Paige, Becca, and Corky. They are your typical suburban family with their own set of unique issues. Paige, the oldest of the three Thatcher kids, is Drew’s daughter from a previous marriage. She has graduated from high school and returns home frequently to help her hard-working parents take care of the rest of the clan. Becca is an antsy teenage girl eager to date boys and fit into in her high school social scene. Corky, the Thatchers’ only son attends high school with Becca but is dealing with a different set of acclimation issues. Born with Down Syndrome, Corky struggles to keep up with the “mainstream” students while striving to maintain a healthy social life in a world where his peers are different than he is.

In addition to the entire first season of this heartwarming series, Life Goes On: The Complete First Season contains never-before-seen special features, including:

• Bill Smitrovich and Patti Lupone’s screen test.
• Gag reel.
• Commentary on the Pilot Episode with Chris Burke and the series Creator, Michael Braverman.

“We are proud to be releasing the first season of this incredible series,” said Rosemary Markson, WHV Executive Director, TV Marketing. “A staple of ABC’s lineup for four seasons, Life Goes On was not just another family drama, it was a vehicle for discussing important issues of the time. No one had ever seen an actor with Down syndrome play a lead role in a series before this show. Chris Burke was an inspiration to people everywhere.”
