I’d throw down for a DVD of the Japanese games shows and the humping robot. And if the “bonus” footage had anything to do with Rosie O’Donnell – heaven on earth, baby.

While you are doing that housekeeping, could you please fix the RSS feed for the Vent so that only Vent shows are listed in it? Right now, the Vent RSS feed is the same as the main HotAir RSS feed.

Thanks.

I would buy a DVD as a way to financially support the community.

#1 on my wish list: a feature like the Lizard Lounge, where we could discuss headlines & OTs.

A DVD purchase for me would depend on the extras you guys include. Behind the scenes stuff, bloopers, cut segments – things I haven’t seen before. Because I’ve already seen the actual shows once, and now they’re all kind of dated, since they usually address whatever was going on at the time they aired. It’d be like releasing a DVD of Geraldo at Large.

I predict in future years you’ll want to reuse some of those Vents, so save a back up.

I wouldn’t be interested in DVDs unless they had something extra, say out-takes?

And, Allah said the new Vents were always going to be right under the headlines, but actually, they move down the page. I prefer them easier to find, either way

I would buy a DVD. The HotAir shop needs to expand. Michelle and company are taking over the blogosphere! MORE HOTAIR STUFF IN THE SHOP!

I saved my two favorites – “Ching Chong Rosie” and “So Long, Farewell”.

Bryan can really sing! (No offense, Michelle :)

Hey Bryan, care to try for American Idol? :P

I second all these motions, especially a Vent greatest hits, and an outtakes disc. Releasing discs say, once or twice a month would be good for one’s budget.

Vent helped get me through a long summer last year, and I want to congratulate Michelle, Bryan, and everyone involved for a great 18 months. Btw, I love the Vent theme music and the background music!

Enjoy your time off, Bryan.

Congrat on the 16 month mark. I just learned about it 3 months ago and was able to sign up last week. Hot air rocks

Maybe I’m just throwin’ down the Obvious Card but HotAir Networks, LLC will sell 10,000 copies of the DVD if you include code on the disc that adds WordPress comment preview and spellchecker buttons whenever the DVD is inserted into the computer.

When the current show is mixed in with the top picks sections, I think it’s more easily overlooked... Liked it better when it was on top, as a marquee, and very noticeable… Schweggie on July 6, 2007 at 12:31 PM

Schweggie, you took the words right out of my ~~mouth~~ fingers. Re: purchase of DVD: I'd love to see a "blooper reel". And are we talking an instant download (greatly interested) or an actual DVD/disc sent by snail mail (not so much)? Congratulations on your successful "overgrowth". You have improved my understanding of geopolitics, validated and challenged my opinions, raised the level of debate as well as the decible rate at family gatherings, helped me win a few bets and shed a few ~~friends~~ tin foil asshats. Many thanks! Now if only you'd put in a preview button, I'll buy the house a round of drinks!

Oh, and I also agree with the suggestions to put the marque back at the top for each media type. That was a better way to read the column IMO.

I would purchase select Vents as well as Jihad Watch, possibly topics that are in regards to specific issues such as illegal immigration statistics, etc.
I would definitely buy a couple DVD’s of Bethany, especially any that are more about her, and less about stuff…….”it puts the lotion in the basket” LOL!!! “Keep your poodle out of the basement” ROFL!!!

Best of The Vent please, with Peeps bonus.

By: PowWow

In case I forget, have a great vacation Bryan.
And yes, I’d be very intersted in buying a best of vents type DVD. Likely some others too.

By: BacaDog

BacaDog — Fri, 06 Jul 2007 19:37:58 +0000

16 months? Wow. Time flies by these days.

Greatest hits DVD might be something I’d buy with maybe some outtakes.

Thanks to the entire team for all of their hard work the past 16 months. HA is usually my first and last stop of the day.

Ditto the vent back on top. It sometimes gets lost in the hot topics.

Last but not least………..preview button.

By: MirCat

MirCat — Fri, 06 Jul 2007 19:36:39 +0000

DVD! I’d have a Greatest Hits version and The Complete Anthology type thing.

Oh, and If you can swing it, a The Malkin Factor one.

Bryan, I know she plays with the other team, pardon the pun, but I need to know: is she hot? She would certainly seem to be…

Also, just my .02 here, but I would put the current show back on top as a marquee again, say a permanent fixture on top of the headlines. When the current show is mixed in with the top picks sections, I think it’s more easily overlooked (especially when at work and can only pop in and out of Hotair). Can think of many instances where I noticed a new Vent or JihadWatch long after it was posted. Liked it better when it was on top, as a marquee, and very noticeable…

Ditto.

Please, please return the Vent to the top. You don’t have to excise the headlines, just make room for a button.

Second the Bethany/Kirsten spam eliminator.

If the DVD has content previously unavailable, I’d pony for it.

More MKH “The Week in Peeps”!

By: Anton

Anton — Fri, 06 Jul 2007 19:00:53 +0000

I’d buy a copy of such a DVD. I’d really look forward to some additional behind-the-scenes and blooper content. And I second the suggestion to include some HamNation episodes — at least the ones you’ve linked to on the blog. If my memory is correct, you helped MKH get launched into v-blogging.

Oh, and here’s a feature suggestion for the next website upgrade: can you add a spam filter so I can automatically block posts devoted to the adoration of Bethany or Kirsten Powers?
