Re: At long last, Mission: Impossible!

I too hope they release the new version of the show also.

Bring back John Doe! Or at least resolve the cliff-hanger with a 2hr movie or as an extra on a dvd release.

Re: At long last, Mission: Impossible!

There's a report that Hawaii Five-0 season 6 comes out in April. Seems they've been putting out Mission Impossible a month before Jack Lord and the boys. So hopefully America will get the next season in March.

Re: At long last, Mission: Impossible!

Fine by me- I'm looking forward to the "Casey years", even when Lynda Day George was pregnant and Barbara Anderson played Mimi! A definite improvement over Seasons 4 and 5. Of course the problem here was that the producers ran out of foreign countries to invent and began having a 'mobster of the week' instead.
Bring "The continuing story of PEYTON PLACE" home on DVD: the one that started it all- from Dallas and Dynasty to Desperate Housewives and Gossip Girl!!!

Update on Season 6:

"Lars-Erik Wikberg has written to say that the official Scandinavian release date for season 6 is June 24th. That should mean that it also will be released about the same time in other region 2 countries."

Re: At long last, Mission: Impossible!

Provisional front cover artwork for Season 6 was posted on Gnudawn last week. It was in small size, so seeing the larger front cover artwork on TVShowsOnDVD was great. Wish they could have used the Season 6 promo images printed in the Complete Mission: Impossible Dossier book and on Gnudawn.

Link below to the TVShowsOnDVD news article with the larger front cover artwork for Season 6:

Mission: Impossible DVD news: Announcement for Mission: Impossible - The 6th Season | TVShowsOnDVD.com

*****

Bought the Region 2 DVD boxset of Season 5 yesterday. The box is a plastic DVD like the Season 2 boxset of The Invaders on Region 1. There are the same pictures from some of the episodes on the inside of the DVD sleeve, as on the three separate DVD sleeves from the Region 1 boxset. Trouble is they've had to shrink the images to make them fit on the one DVD sleeve.

Is it cheaper to release DVD boxsets in the plastic boxes compared to the cardboard boxes? CBS/Paramount DVD boxsets are being mostly released as plastic DVD boxes in the UK. The pre-order prices on Play.com are more cheaper now. Must be because CBS/Paramount R2 DVD releases are being released in plastic boxes now.

Re: At long last, Mission: Impossible!

I like the box art, glad it's the same style as the previous sets. I'm looking forward to picking up this set. I still haven't purchased season 5 yet, though. This is such a great series,I plan to guy all sets for the original series

I wonder if they will sell the 2 seasons from the 80s as season 8 and 9?

I really hope so. I have most of the episodes on vhs tape. But, they are not that good. We need a Paramount chat to ask.

Bring back John Doe! Or at least resolve the cliff-hanger with a 2hr movie or as an extra on a dvd release.

I remember watching this one when it aired but haven't seen any since then. As an original M:I fan, I can say that the 80's version was surprisingly good, imo. Others will have to correct me on this one as it's from 80's memory, but I think Peter Graves was in the 80's version as was Greg Morris' son.

Yes, the first episode showed the current head of the IMF killed on assignment, and his mentor, Mr. Phelps, coming out of retirement.

Later on, Greg Morris appeared in his old role as Barney, as did Lynda Day as Casey.

For the most part, though, the young "kids" were directed by Peter Graves as the head of this IMF team.

The show was reserrected during a writers' strike, and they actually re-did stories from the earlier incarnation of MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE. A memorable one was "The Killer" re-done with John DeLancie in the Robert Conrad role.

I liked the update to the theme music too - available on a soundtrack CD.

Re: At long last, Mission: Impossible!

Some new news was posted on the Gnudawn website for the Mission: Impossible TV series in the past week about Season 7. Season 7 of the original Mission: Impossible will be released in Scandinavia in October. So hopefully Season 7 will be out on Region 1 and 2 around September or October.

Re: At long last, Mission: Impossible!

As we wandered around in a Wal-Mart, I was surprised to see them carrying MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE Season Six, and at the reasonable price of $29.96. So I picked one up. I haven't had a chance to look at it yet, but given the track record these should all look and sound fine.

It was certainly a better price than I'd seen elsewhere this week.

I bought it for $29.99 at Walmart myself. Glad I did too.

Re: At long last, Mission: Impossible!

Season six is released in the UK a week on Monday. Can't wait to see it. I should get my copy in the post a week on Saturday. Normally new releases arrive in the post on the Saturday (or even earlier) before the release date.

EDIT: There is a clip from the season six episode "The Tram" on Play.com.

Re: At long last, Mission: Impossible!

If you count the two seasons from 1980s, there are two more after this. Hope they put those out as well. Plus that website only talks about the Scandanavian set.

Yeah I got my copy. I actually got it last Friday w/ the 2 Zorro Disney Treasure sets. I have watched the episodes "Speed" and "Two Thousand" and the quality of the remastering is just as good as the first six seasons.
