    GILLIGAN'S ISLAND - DVD SEASON & SERIES SETS (2004-2012) - Pros, Cons, Incongruities & Imponderables

    My main reason for preferring production order is to avoid confusion with ongoing characters. "Hey, didn't that guy get killed in a previous episode? Why is he suddenly alive again?" "Didn't Lori already leave the Five-O team? Then why is she back all of a sudden?"

    Fugitive comes to DVD in a 33 disc set on Nov. 1st 2011

    The music in your download copy is not the original, night-of-broadcast music. But I'm glad you liked it. There's plenty more where that came from. That same Fugitive replacement music was used as background music when Yoko gave a live performance in exchange for a ride to Starbase 4.

    Thanks for the heads-up regarding Moon of the Wolf. I must have missed the news of its release in HD on blu. In addition to the aforementioned HD releases of Warning Shot and Superdome, David Janssen can be seen in HD in the following blu releases (although he generally has only minor roles in...

    What did you watch this week in classic TV on DVD(or Blu)?

    Darren McGavin's easy, breezy, two-fisted Mike Hammer is one of my all-time favorite detectives. I converted all of the episodes to MKV files, stored on a memory device connected to my Smart TV. I found that six of the episodes had damaged IFO files, making it difficult to convert to MKVs. I...

    What did you watch this week in classic TV on DVD(or Blu)?

    Honestly, you're making me wish that I had asked Santa for a T.J. Hooker set. "You go ahead and go home, officer Romano. I'll see to it that Stacy takes a shower after her workout."

    Favorite Christmas Episodes

    Just before Christmas, I always make a point of making a quick trip to the moon to get some fresh cheese. My guests always comment on its freshness!

    Contemplating a purchase, but don't know whether to order the Fabulous Films set or the Viavision set. Is there a difference in video quality?

    The Thin Man (1957)

    Perhaps a few of the rare-video websites might have The Thin Man series. Thomas Film Classics comes to mind, as well as Loving The Classics -- both sites have a lot of rare videos. Google them.

    What's the last TV DVD/Blu-ray you bought?

    Better Call Saul complete series blu-ray. Been on a Breaking Bad binge lately. Bob Odenkirk is such a hoot.

    Fugitive comes to DVD in a 33 disc set on Nov. 1st 2011

    The role of Lt. Gerard's wife was played by two actresses. Rachel Ames made a brief appearance as Ann Gerard in Never Wave Goodbye part 1, and then Barbara Rush was given the meatier role of Marie Gerard in Landscape with Running Figures. Coincidentally, both actresses appeared in the 1951...

    Fugitive comes to DVD in a 33 disc set on Nov. 1st 2011

    I can imagine someone at CBS wondering WHICH audio clip they ought to use -- the one with Richard Anderson, or the one with the anonymous cop. It's easy to imagine that CBS decided on a compromise. "We'll use the Richard Anderson dialogue for the audio track, and the anonymous cop's dialogue...
