Tickets were sold out the moment they went live

Assuming that means you didn't get any?

Tragically. I doubt there were any to get, I was online at ten on the dot and they were already sold out

Entire cast wants to do another season or a movie, pointedly made looks at Hulu execs in the audience during the reunion

The writers of Happy Endings are writing a new "lost" episode, to be performed live by the entire cast at Entertainment Weekly's Pop Fest in October (in LA-- booooo)

Calling it 401 is pretty neat though. Hopes obviously still aflame

The Happy Endings writers' Twitter has been posting vids from the table read, lots of NSFW moments and big laughs-- the cast went in blind, so it's a cold read, but hopefully they post the whole script somewhere soon. Dave doing (Scott) Hamilton raps is the highlight.

Update: I have this in hand and what I've rewatched so far looks excellent with great picture/sound quality. I still can't believe we actually got a compete series Bluray set for this show

Was just coming in to share that Blu-ray.com seems pretty displeased with the image quality, but if you're enjoying it, why does it matter?

That review is nonsense. The Blu-ray looks and sounds great, they only gave it 3/5 because it's from Mill Creek

Probably, though I'm curious if you see any merit in this specific criticism:
Take a look at the last episode on disc one, a scene in which Penny is in training at a self-defense class. Noise is clumpy and dense, as it is in much of the show, and that scene is another good example of the severe macroblocking and banding that can pop in

Literally saw none of that, and I rewatched that episode a few days ago. I would bet money the reviewer is demeriting for image issues that are present in the way it was filmed (like color banding in the opening credits, which has always been there), as I've seen these episodes enough times on DVD, iTunes, HD cable, Hulu, and now Blu-ray that I saw nothing out of the ordinary other than increased resolution. You can see a screencap of the episode in question here, and I don't see what the hell they're talking about here either

Best Buy has this and the Masters of Sex Blu-ray complete series mispriced for $9.99. YMMV obviously, and they'll probably start removing the stickers once corporate realizes

Have to get over there at lunch tomorrow. Guessing this won't be #1 on their docket when they unlock the doors.

Why did no one here alert no one here that the entire cast got together via Zoom a few months ago to record a new episode for charity

Well that was great overall. Not every joke works and Penny's bit from the midpoint on is lame, but a lot of the material lands and the cast easily slip back into their roles, especially Jane. Dave's plotline was inspired

I finally watched this and oh my goodness, I can't remember the last time I laughed this much. I was in tears of laughter more than once. The writers and cast didn't lose anything in the interim years. So many great lines. How have we not gotten a revival season yet? This proves it would be as good as it ever was.
