Loved the movie and the series

I absolutely loved this movie ever since I first saw it in 1987. I watched the series every week and was so disappointed when it was cancelled. I had purchased the vhs-movie but over the years have some how misplaced it. I was hoping that it would be in dvd. This was a great family movie. I loved all the singing and the great story line. For those who have never had the pleasure of seeing this movie...you have really missed out. I hope it eventually will show up in dvd. This movie will always be one of my favorites.

Connection to my sister

For the 25 yrs I've been alive no movie has ever touched my heart like Rags to Riches. When I was a little girl, I would go to my grandmother's house and I would try to remember to bring the movie from home so my cousin and I could watch it. At the time, Ash and I were the only girls of our generation and having no other siblings of my own (brothers/sisters) it was like watching the show with the sister I never had. We loved the movie so much we memorized all the songs and would always sing them together. Now at age 25 and it being near Christmas I wanted to do something special for both Ash and I, I was planning to buy the movie on DVD and surprise her, plus buy one for my mother and I as well, but I was painfully hurt when I found out amazon did not have the movie in stock. We are in a time where not many people still have VCRs anymore, everything has gone high tech, and to see certain movies that have not been transfered to DVD is really sad. Movies like, "Sing" and "Rags to Riches", these movies are special to people and to not find them on a DVD is really heart breaking. I know most people don't read reviews but I hope you read this one because it's important. Having a connection is important, and having them with the people you love and admire, people you've grow up with, people you're honored to have as family, it's important to keep that connection. I hope someday in the near future to come on amazon and find Rags to Riches moved to the DVDs. I hope one day to see the over whelming look on my mother and my cousin's faces when I give the movies to them. But most of all I hope to sit down with my own children someday and watch it with them and see them as they develope that same connection I developed with my cousin Ash.

The movie that started it all

Reviewed by Renee King, 2008-08-06

I just wanted to chime in that the movie preceded the series. It was NOT a piecemeal of the series to create a movie. The movie introduced the characters or could be better described as the PILOT for the series. I am praying that NBC will release the series (with the movie included) as a DVD set. If nothing else, it would put the vultures that are charging upwards of $100 bucks for their pirated copies out of business. It would be nice if they can do add updates on all of the cast members as part of the extras on the dvd....I can only tell you about Joe or Tisha....but I loved them all! I highly recommend this wonderful series to anyone who has an affinity for mid-century bebop music and truly believe that DREAM MAKERS exist!
