That's great news!  Any chance this release would feature interviews with surviving cast members Mary Carlisle (who turned 100 last week) and Marjorie Lord?

Don't expect.  With rare exceptions, Warner Archive DVDs do not include bonus features other than trailers, if the trailers still exist in Warner's vault.

I have a few W&W films on DVD, why funny todays audiences wouldnt sit thru them, too much singing and dancing.  By the way W&W where much more famous than the Stooges in the 1930s.  W&W stard in features and the Stooges in shorts for a poverty row studio

A little of W&W has always gone a long way with me. But I do like HOLD 'EM, JAIL I'm also curious about seeing DIPLOMANIACS to compare it with DUCK SOUP.
