Hart 2 Hart

As a Netflix member, I've noticed that virtually all DVDs are one-sided. This is mostly so the DVD creator can screenprint one side to tell you how cool the DVD is and why you should buy it (something that's kinda lost on Netflix subscribers-- by the time I see the DVD in-person, I've already decided to watch it!). However, a few DVD manufacturers opt to use the full capacity of the DVD by burning video on both sides. Oddly, Ive only found 2 TV series so far that do this: Newhart (the old Bob Newhart issue, not his Vermont-based dream show that hasn't yet been released to DVD, sadly), and Reba. Reba stars Reba McEntire, but the characters name is Reba HART, and two of Newhart's characters have made guest appearances on the show (Julia Duffy and Peter Scolari). Its weird that the two shows with double-sided DVDs both have HART in them, hmmmm. I wonder if Hart 2 Hart has double sided DVDS ?!
