I understand that one big reason Ed wasn't released on DVD long ago is that it featured lots of music and that it is difficult to get all of the songs' copyright holders to give licenses for the songs to be used on home video.

Although set in the fictional town of Stuckeyville, Ohio, the majority of the series was actually shot in various towns in northern New Jersey including Montclair, Hillsdale, Haworth, Westfield, Cranford, Nutley, Ridgewood, Harrington Park, Allendale, Northvale, Demarest and Rockland County, New York ( Tappan, Nyack ). Many of the street names and towns mentioned on the show are real New Jersey street and town names. The opening sequence showed Ed driving past the Rialto movie theater in the downtown of Westfield . Stuckeybowl was actually the former Country Club Lanes in Northvale, NJ, and also served as the show's headquarters. Many of the show's other sets were built in a cleared out portion of the bowling alley such as the interiors of Stuckeyville High School, the courtroom, and The Smiling Goat. Country Club Lanes has since gone out of business, and was completely demolished in the late Spring of 2006, to make room for new housing.
This article is about the NBC comedy-drama. For the MSNBC show hosted by Ed Schultz, see The Ed Show. Ed is an American comedy-drama television series that was co-produced by David Letterman 's Worldwide Pants Incorporated, NBC Productions and Viacom Productions that aired on NBC from October 8, 2000 to February 6, 2004.
The show revolves around Ed Stevens, a hotshot New York lawyer who, on the same day he is fired from his job (for drafting a contract with a misplaced comma that ended up costing his firm $1.6 million), comes home to discover his wife having an affair with a mailman that she claims she met at Starbucks. Dejected, Ed decides to return to his (fictional) hometown of Stuckeyville, Ohio, to spend some time. Upon his arrival, he is reunited with friends that he has missed, as well as Carol Vessey, his high school crush. Determined to win her heart, Ed decides to stay, buying a rundown bowling alley and setting up a new law firm in the process, earning him the undesired nickname "The Bowling Alley Lawyer" which leads him to make a distinction to a judge during one of his first trials: "I am a lawyer, I own a bowling alley. Two separate things."
Carol's best friend and a chemistry teacher at Stuckeyville High who eventually becomes the principal. Molly was unpopular in high school but becomes close friends with Carol and Nancy. She is Ed's first client when he tries a case as he had never been to court while in New York, a case that he wins.

You’ve always had an entrepreneurial spirit, you want to be your own boss and run your own business.
In order for your bowling alley to flourish, you’ll need to have a firm understanding of what’s working in the industry these days.
Now that you have an understanding of the market and a plan to draw customers, it’s time to figure out where you’ll set up a shop.
Once the location has been decided, it’s time to purchase all of the equipment that you’ll need and build your alley.
As you may already know, bowling alleys can be a phenomenal place for offering food and beverage to its clients.
Some of the permits you’ll need to gather depend on whether you’ll serve liquor at your bowling alley. If so, you’ll need a liquor license. You’ll also need permits for cooking and serving food.
You might have proper experience with working in bowling or you might not. If you don’t, then you’ll want to hire staff members who have the experience.
