On the other hand, I've been a Little House fan just about all my life, and I don't think I've ever seen the pilot. I need to pick that up. But, you won't be in the dark if you jump right in with the box set. If you are pretty confident you'll like the show, it probably would be best to watch...

I think fixing future releases should be enough. I hope they start with season 3. Having a recall for these first two sets would be a nightmare, I believe. I'd love to have the intros, but I'm not going to ask for it. As far as I can tell, this is a real small company releasing their first major...

That's pretty impressive of this company. Thanks for asking, Ben, as it'll be because of you that the future sets are improved.

Thanks, Ben. I thought I was picturing Albert, but I wasn't sure. That was a fun episode, now that I think about it.

I don't remember that episode at all, but I do know there were some pretty abrupt commercial breaks in The Raccoon. If there was anything cut there, it was nothing major, but it did seem the score was cut off before it could reach the "commercial break" crescendo. I'm kind of at a tough spot...

I'd wait. I didn't find the pilot yet, either.

I was able to get them to give me the $20 off deal with just my receipt, so I'm in the catbird seat. Thanks, David. No way I would have thought to check for a deal on these if you hadn't given the heads up.

I've got to say, for some reason, the quality really took a nosedive on the second episode on disc 2. Very dull, with a little jumpiness in some scenes. I just watched a little of the third episode, and it looked much the same. On the bright side, it looked about like it does in syndication...

I suppose I'll find out soon enough, but does anyone remember what carol is played throughout the first Christmas episode? I was thinking it was Good Christian Men Rejoice, but now I have reason to believe it's While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks. Either way, it goes a long way towards making...

I plan to. I liked both seasons 8 and 9. There are some really good episodes in season 8, such as the Christmas retrospective and the season closer (granted, it was a reworking of a Bonanza script, but it was good). And, I even liked the Carters.

I went to Best Buy today, but they still didn't have season 2. Hopefully, they'll put it on the shelves tomorrow. The returns people said all I need is my original receipt for season 1, and they will honor the deal. That's great, but it'll only work if they actually get it in stock. She said I...

I've only watched the first episode so far, and the picture quality was quite nice for the most part. A few problems here and there, but I do believe the color and detail were better than in syndication. When you look at it as a TV show from 1974 that has probably taken a beating over the...

David, based on your experience in retail stores, is there any way I can just bring my receipt and have them give me the discount plus a little off on season 2? It seems a waste for them to have to send back a perfectly good box when I just need a better price.

You're right, Scott. The credits aren't there. :frowning: Not even Ernest Borgnine for the Lord Is My Shepherd episode. But, since I was remembering wrong, at least it doesn't affect the "back from the commercials" segment. I can't judge the set yet--some of the images I'm seeing look better...

I haven't watched the set yet, and don't know if you're responding from hands-on experience with the set, Scott, but here's how it works in syndication: the standard title sequence plays, with only the main actors credited (I think this sequence remained unchanged until the very last...

Thanks, Ben. Good news about the uncut episodes. I am tempted to complain about the theme not being attached to every episode, but it really wouldn't make much sense. I used to record Little House every morning, and I would almost always skip the intro. This'll be the equivalent of that. As long...

You're welcome. Hope that information helps. I got season one today, I believe at the same chain from which you got yours, David. :) Strangely, they only had season one. No big deal, as I only planned to buy the first one today. I hope they have the second season and the pilot next week...

Aryn, here's a thread with more information: http://www.hometheaterforum.com/htfo...hreadid=144527 Ben_D: if you're reading this thread, could you provide specific lines of dialog cut from Country Girls? Maybe we could get David to check those for us if you do. Or, if I end up finding the...

At least one of them--I'll Be Waving As You Drive Away--is either a two-parter or a long episode from seasons later than 1 and 2 (in the other thread, I believe I had the exact information). Since these are being released as season sets, I don't think you'll be expected to buy them separately...

This show has long looked bad on broadcast, so hopefully the sets will beat what I'm used to. I really don't want to be spending $80 right now, but it's going to be hard to resist. I have to at least get the first season when I find it. :) Now, it's time for me to find the other part of the...

I am so there! Thanks for keeping us updated, David! I don't know Goldhil from Adam Kendall, but I hope this title is a quality exception for them. David, given that you said they would be available at retail, I assume that means I can expect to walk into my local Best Buy and find these...
