Does anyone know...
 

A place I can download an old episode of RAW? More specifically December 22, 1997???

Actually I would settle for a place I could download the HBK/HHH European Title match...

I usually recommend PWTorrents. I'm not sure if they have this one up yet but I believe someone was uploading all of the Raws(monthly) from 1997 so they may have it.

what was so special about that raw in particular?

It was the Christmas of '97 episode...

Santa Stunner, DX wishes Merry X-Mas on their asses, the teased DX break up fallowed by their European Title "match", back when Rock was IC Champ and in the Nation...plus it's one of the only RAWs I don't have on tape rom 1997. :p

I'm really surprised the WWE has not come out with Raw seasons DVD's. Every other tv show has.

RAW has 52 - 2 hour episodes (approx 80 minutes without commercials) per season...

Other shows have 24 - half or hour episodes (approx 20-40 minutes without commercials) per season...

THAT's why they don't do it. IF they did do it they would at LEAST have to split each year into winter, spring, summer and fall quarters or something...

I figured that it would be about 3 episodes per DVD, dual-sided DVDs making it six, coming out to about 8-9 disks, which is the equivalent of one to one and a half TV show season DVD sets.

Dual Sided discs are the worst shit ever. Which is why they would probably do it.

I don't really mind them, but what is up with the Mania disks from the Anthology? I have come across maybe two that used the second side. (Mind you, I don't use the fourth set because I have the originals on DVD uncensored.) You'd think they'd only use them for ones that, you know, needed two sides.
