Has the Dave Chapelle DVD "The Complete First Season" sold MORE copies
than ALL of the combined DVD sales of all the Simpson series or any
other series, for that matter.  Can you please provide me with numbers
and a source. If you can provide me with the sales numbers of each
simpson dvd series that would be great. I believe the Simpsons have
SEVEN series out on DVD's
but I am not sure. I have read that the Dave Chapelle Season 1 The
Complete First Season on DVD is the best selling tv series of a DVD
ever. But I can not believe that it out sold ALL of the COMBINED
simpson dvd sales. I have had difficulty finding any reliable numbers.
Thank you in advance for you assistanec

"HOLLYWOOD, October 19, 2004 - Paramount Home Entertainment and Comedy
Central Home Entertainment proudly announce CHAPPELLE'S SHOW SEASON
ONE: UNCENSORED DVD box set has become the #1 all-time selling TV show
on DVD ever with over 2 million units sold, according to Videoscan and
retail sources. It puts the two-disc collection of Dave Chappelle's
top-rated Comedy Central series ahead of previous record-holder, The
Simpsons - The Complete First Season, which has sold 1.9 million
units."

" Rounding out the six major studios was Paramount Home Entertainment,
in sixth place with a 9.9% market share. Paramount's big title was
"The Longest Yard," though much of its market share came from its
TV-DVD output, which included the year's top TV-DVD seller, Comedy
Central's "Chappelle's Show: Season 2," with unit sales estimated at
2.8 million by Home Media Retailing."

"The Incredibles" was the top-selling DVD, with total sales to date
estimated at 17.4 million units by Home Media Retailing. Second place
went to "Revenge of the Sith" with 10.4 million units, while
"Madagascar" and "Shark Tale" tied for third with sales of 10 million
units each.
