i think in general, after Leslie began distributing her last few sets via infomercial, her other videos have become more scarce. of course, streaming is also forcing people to buy DVDs. i for one do not want to go the streaming route.

although i have all the Leslies i need, i still look for a few that are on my wish list in the exchange forum.

I am wondering if the pandemic caused some people to buy more of the cheaper used ones online months ago. My sister pretty much only uses Leslie. I am wondering how many of hers she has kept. The record store near me that sells used dvds has hers once in awhile.

A bit off topic, but has Leslie been in any workouts lately? I don't have her streaming, but I have all of her latest dvds and it's been a few years now that she's put out anything. I think Nick and someone did one for the streaming (in the wonky outfits) but that didn't feature Leslie nor is it on dvd.

I hope she is okay, a Google search didn't turn up anything.

Oh I'm not looking for any Leslie's. I have 3 of her workouts that rarely get used as it is. I guess it is just the vidiot in me that thinks Leslie's are becoming rarer so I should pick them up while I can. LOL!

Lori, her Walk 15 set is pretty new. I think it came out last year. Leslie introduced 4 new walk leaders who led some of the workouts and Leslie led about half the workouts herself. And Kathy Garver is one of the background exercisers!

Have you checked your library?

My library has DVDs and was phasing them out. Now the exercise DVDs are circulating again.

You know, I would consider a yearly all access pass with Leslie's site but it doesn't appear to have her full collection of videos.

I'm sure the decision to go OOP was to steer people toward the streaming subscription. But the scarcity is probably driven by the pandemic. "Walk at Home" is probably very appealing to people who don't know much about exercise videos and now find themselves stuck in the house.
