An earlier thread discussed the fact that Paramount generally releases their TV show DVDs pretty bareboned. It got me thinking. What would you consider the must haves that should be on every TV series DVD?
This is my list:
1) Every episode uncut as it appeared during it's initial showing. Not a syndicated version of the episode.
2) For comedy - ability to turn off laugh track
3) For a 1st season DVD - How the series was developed and cast
4) Best available sound
5) Video should appear as shown during it's network run, but cleaned up of any defects.
6) For post 1st season DVDs, I'd love to see a synopsis of the changes from one season to the next. For instance, season 4 of M*A*S*H should discuss how and why McLean Stevenson and Wayne Rogers left the show, and how they came about replacing them with Harry Morgan and Mike Farrell.
Nothing else IMO is necessary. I can do without the interactive quizzes, blooper reals, commentaries, etc.
