At Costco today I found the Anne of Green Gables DVD collection on sale for $49.99 and into the cart it went. Once upon a time I used to own the VHS tapes but gave them away when we retired our VCR. I absolutely adore these movies. When they used to only come on during PBS pledge drives I fondly remember being glued to the television each time Anne made her annual appearance. To this day I still have a crush on the actor who played Gilbert Blythe. Jonathan Crombie: be still my heart.

You have NO IDEA how hard I have looked for these. My mom and I want them so bad. I wish I had an extra $50 dollars to go out and get it, but now I know where to get them when I do. This series is one of my comforts.
I have the DVDs and am now wondering why I didn’t spend this weekend with a bad cold watching them!!
I need to find these! I can see these becoming my “sick at home” or “Will’s gone” movies! I lived for the times they would show up on PBS.
I just bought these at CostCo this weekend, too! I’ve been afraid to watch the 3rd movie up until now. It’s my understanding that it has NOTHING to do with the books. But my love for Jonathan Crombie and Megan Follows is going to win out now that I own it. I still have my VHS tapes, but now that I own these, I plan to include them in my bag of books to be taken to the used book store.
I KNEW IT! I KNEW we were bosom friends!!
My mom and I were/are obsessed with those movies, but we only ever watched them on PBS. Then when we got them on tape I thought I would die! Course then VCRs went to the wayside, so my dear dear friend Julie bought them for me on DVD a couple of years ago when they were harder to find on DVD. She’s the best!
I love those movies so so much…I can’t even express to you how much. However, I will share this story: When I got engaged to Drew, my mom pulled me aside and said, “You found your Gilbert!” It was the highest compliment she could have given him.
