Re: Wings is FINALLY coming to DVD!!!

Any word how how the Seasons 1 & 2 sets did "sales-wise". The TSoD news story that came out a few months back said Paramount anticipated a Fall Release for S3, and S4 potentially coming out before years end. It DIDN'T say whether or not this was contingent upon the sales of the first set. Has anyone heard any word on this?

Also, how is it that Paramount seems to be so much more adept at consistently "fast tracking" its shows (i.e. Brady Bunch, Andy Griffith) than the other big studios?

Re: Wings is FINALLY coming to DVD!!!

I didn't buy the first set, but with news of the quick release of season three (and possibly season four to soon follow), I am now seriously re-considering collecting Wings. If the other studios would fast track their releases, I think they would find that a lot more folks were willing to make the plunge into investing in some shows they might otherwise be ambivalent about.

It's the same thing with the Andy Griffith releases for me. I had originally only planned to buy through season five, but since Paramount is releasing the entire run of the show so quickly, I thought what the heck, I'll go for all eight seasons.

I think for a lot of people (like me) there is a reluctance to start collecting a show (especially a long running show like the two mentioned above) if there is a chance (a pretty good chance with some studios) that you'll be left high and dry after a couple of seasons are released. If a few seasons come out pretty quick and at a regular rate, then at least you have some confidence that it's worth the investment.

But with all of that having been said, Paramount has still let us down by (seemingly) quitting on Taxi, so I'm still not 100% confident even in them, although they do better than some of the other studios.

Season 6 is coming: March 25th, 2008

Wings DVD news: Announcement for Wings - The Complete 6th Season | TVShowsOnDVD.com

Great news.....however, It would be even greater news if Paramount would get around to releasing the remaining Seasons of Cheers too.

Season 6 keepcase

I just got my copy today and the case has changed. Instead of individual slimcases for the discs, two are attached to the case themselves and the other two are housed on a hinged door-type holder (one disc on each side). The episode summaries are on the back of the cover sheet/insert! So you either have to read through the plastic or remove the paper altogether. The discs themselves no longer have artwork on them. They are plain gray with silver text.

We paid the same price for this set. I hope the extra money CBS DVD gets is used to get Seasons 4 and 5 of Taxi out for release. That is, if this set cost them less than the previous configuration.

Re: Wings is FINALLY coming to DVD!!!

CBS is getting pathetic with this standardized crap. I don't have a single series from them that looks the same throughout because of this.

Re: Wings is FINALLY coming to DVD!!!

I wish they would use a different color besides gray on those discs. I can't read them unless I tilt them toward the light.
