From the same minds that brought you the Grammy Award winning "Michael Nesmith in Elephant Parts" and the network series "Michael Nesmith in Television Parts," comes the "Television Parts Home Companion." Based around four of the Nesmith musical numbers from "Television Parts," it contains a wealth of material that will never be seen on the series.
"Home Companion" has "Tales of the Dead Ranger", "Dueling Lounge Pianos", and tips on domesticating a 200 foot tall 20,000 ton reptile in, "Life with Rogar".
Only in the "Home Companion" will you find "The Voyage of the Kona Tiki", rare documentary footage of one man's valiant attempt to cross the Pacific in a Polynesian Restaurant. Say goodbye to canned laughter and join the Nez and his loon-platoon as they move your video library one step further into the zone. Fast paced, hilarious, and at times touching there is something new to be found everytime you see the "Television Parts Home Companion." An original program for home video!
Television Parts Home Companion FAQ
Q: Was this DVD digitally remastered?
A: The original material is 1 inch videotape, and that's what we digitized. It is only a little better quality than VHS, but that is as good as it is going to get given the original format.
Q: Have parts of this DVD been edited?
A: Yes, Nez edited the beginnings of some of the music videos. He made the edits because he didn't like the material. It was material he was forced to include in the TV show and never wanted in the first place.
Q: Is there any additional material on this DVD?
A: No, Nez made the decision not to comment on the DVD because, after having done several, he finds them annoying. He has decided not to do any more commentaries in the future. We didn't add other material to the DVD because there is none to add. This is the reason the DVD is priced so low.
