About this site
Home Video Playground is a Wiki where you can upload imaginary home video covers, labels, and release schedules (based on existing ones, of course) for motion pictures and television shows both fake and real, from set templates, in the form of videocassette releases past, present and future, on formats both obsolete and current.
Let your imagination run wild (as far as the rules are concerned, of course) in the realm of home video!
