Don't let that familiar-looking logo fool you! The Vorhees-free “Friday The 13th: The Series” had nothing to do with the movie series beyond the fact that the TV show’s producer, Frank Mancuso Jr., produced seven of the “Friday The 13th” movie sequels. The syndicated show, developed under the title “The 13th Hour,” was grotesquely devoid of randy teen campers getting hacked to tiny bits by a murderous psychopath. (One assumes Mancuso and Paramount figured they could get away with this because “Halloween III” had nothing to do with Laurie Strode or Michael Myers and few seemed to notice or care.) The TV “13th,” which ran 1987-1990, was about a pair of cousins who had to track down and reacquire the cursed antiques sold by their cursed late uncle’s cursed store. One of the first-season episodes, “Cupid’s Quiver,” was directed by Canadian director Atom Egoyan (“Exotica,” “The Sweet Hereafter”). Another, “Faith Healer,” was directed by Canadian director David Cronenberg (“The Dead Zone,” “The Fly,” “A History of Violence,” “Eastern Promises”). This series might have been shot in Canada. Now that we can do anything on basic cable after 10 p.m., why not mount a real “Friday The 13th” series, with Jason Voorhees stalking and dismembering a new set of campers every week?

If you’ve been wondering what Seth Rogen and Judd Apatow were up to between “Freaks and Geeks” and “The 40-Year-Old Virgin,” note that the complete series set for the hilarious “Undeclared” just fell from $36.99 to $27.99!!

The 10th season of “Cheers” went on sale this month, so the good folks at CBS Home Entertainment have lowered seasons one through eight to record-low season prices of $16.99!!

Don Knotts’ Emmy-winning turn as Barney Fife during the first five seasons of “The Andy Griffith Show” made the series arguably the funniest of the 1960s. The whole series has just dropped to $16.99 per season. Particularly impressive pricing when one realizes each season ran 30 to 32 episodes.

The pricing on the “Cheers” and “Andy Griffith” sets turns out to be part of a much bigger CBS DVD sale. .

All five seasons of the 1959-1964 “Twilight Zone” just fell to $32.49 each ($1.50 cheaper than last week). These are the “definitive” sets that were selling for north of $100 last year. They are packed silly with extras and were designed for fans (like me) who have already seen every episode 10 to 20 times.

“From The Earth To The Moon” was $51.99 two weeks ago; it’s now $23.99.
