Why don't they show Dream Team?


Dream Team is such a good series! But where I live, they don't show it now. They've shown the first two seasons, but I want more! Why won't they show us more?

- Five hundred dollars, you say?
- Dog food, you say?

I know what you mean Bregalad! Are u in South Africa? We only got the 1st two seasons ages ago but nothing after. I can't bear to think how many seasons I've missed out on. Glad to see Karl Fletcher's still around. Bloody gorgeous guy....

In the US, we're waiting for season five to start on fox soccer channel

I can't believe this! There've been 9 seasons already. Now I absolutely hate the SABC who got us all hooked into the show when it 1st started yonks ago and then they took it away without any warning and we've already missed out on all that!

The only characters I remember from back then, besides Fletch, is Dean (he was sooo cute) his little brother (what was his name again? He was cute too) the manager's slutty daughter Georgina who tried everything she could to get Dean into bed and Dean's girlfriend who worked as a TV reporter and eventually ended up with Fletch. She was beautiful though.

And loads others....But I think once Footballer$ Wives started here most South Africans forgot about Dream Team. Which is a shame.

I think I remember the 1st episode...Was it when Ron Atkinson resigned as the coach? Or am I thinking of Footballer$ Wives here?

But everytime I see Frank Lampard I think of Karl Fletcher and how he used to love his blow. Ah, the good 'ol days.....

I'm in NZ, we got series 4-6 last year but we won't be getting anymore. wish there was somewhere to download it, havent found anywhere yet.

reply

poor you we've just started series 9 and it looks like its shaping up to be a good series
if you do want to catch up on the episodes a good website to go on is www.harchester.net they have excellent episode reviews on the site

reply

yeah ive been reading the website. not the same as watching it though.

Im in NZ too! i contacted TVNZ about it and they simply told me to keep checking the listings...I loved dream team when i came home from uni and you are right reading the site is no where near as good as watching it

reply

so did TVNZ imply that it will come back sometime then?
lol even if it does, you cant trust them to do it properly. we saw series 4-6 last year (well i discovered it part way through series 4, i dont know if we got any earlier series) and TVNZ would be more likely to give us series 3 or 8 than to follow on with series 7 to be honest.
cos I was told they were not going to buy anymore cos it got poor ratings.
anyway, on the dream team website it urges us to contact sky to show there is demand for dvds/videos, so we should all do that. get your mates/family/whoever you know that watched it and wants to see more to do it to show sky that there is a market for it, and perhaps one day they will do it.
i think its quite a popular show so im a bit suprised they havent made any boxed sets.

Woo! Were more than halfway though series 9 over here on the green isle. Rule Britannia!
