Now for the bad news, Roxbury and/or Infinity have matted the top and bottom of the episodes to give it a FAKE WIDESCREEN look. So in certain scenes, the tops of the actors heads are missing. This might not be readily apparent to people who have never seen the show, but after releasing the first 15 episodes in volume 1 in the correct, full-screen aspect ratio, it becomes glaringly apparent.

Well that is most unfortunate, Bob and I'm just stymied by such an egregious alteration as this. So the image gives the appearance of looking like a 16:9 AR but is still really 4:3 with a portion of the top and bottom masked? Just great.
I admire Mr. Hallam and Roxbury/Infinity for getting the show released and for fast tracking it as well, but boy between this and the poor image quality in set 1, they really are quite the neophyte in this tv on dvd thing. They really have no idea when it comes to meeting 'classic tv' consumer expectations.
