Well since Universal Studios Home Entertainment has (wisely) decided to release the upcoming ALFRED HITCHCOCK PRESENTS - SECOND SEASON DVD set in 5 discs I'm willing to give this tv premium another try.
The second season (1956-57) has one of my personal favourite segments "I Killed the Count," Parts One (17/03/1957), Two (24/03/1957) and Three (31/03/1957) guest-starring that reliable Hitchcock stock company player John Williams in its exceptional cast which is an absolute hoot to savour and enjoy.
With the 39 half hour black-and-white episodes now spaced out over 5 discs hopefully all of Mr. Hitchcock's prologue and epilogue narratives will be included in their entireties in addition to the mid-episode bumpers with the (fantastic) orchestral overtures similarly present this time.
If only Universal would go back and redo the first season (1955-56) episodes on a 5-disc set with all the omissions there figured in as well.
