The HBO series , The Hitchhiker, comes to DVD on March 16th !!
Here's the news according to the DVDfile:
"Next up is the DVD debut of the long-running erotic anthology series The Hitchhiker. This steamy cable staple arrives on March 16th with a two-disc set featuring the series' first ten episodes, each remastered in 4:3 full screen and Dolby Digital 5.1. Extras include audio commentaries on five episodes by such directors as Paul Verhoeven and Phillip Noyce, plus deleted scenes. Retail will be $34.95."
Anyone a fan of this late 70's - early 80's HBO series ?? What is your favorite episode of the series?
I thought it was a well done series that had some pretty good chilling/thrilling moments to some of it's episodes.
Looking forward to picking this one up.
Later!
Troy

Nonetheless, David, those of us who do frequent TVShowsOnDVD saw it a while back when it was posted. It's certainly good news -- better news would be a better release type for the series.
Just give me the freakin' '80s Twilight Zone already! It's driving me crazy not being able to watch them!! Night Gallery, too!

This series popped up on one of the HBO channels a few months back...it wasn't really as well crafted as one might remember, though it did bring back memories. Time is never kind!

I just rented the 2 DVD set...
Many of the episodes it seems are from the later seasons 1987-1990...
As a matter of fact, there are no episodes from Seasons 1 or 2 at all on this set...
Some of the episodes were ok on this set, but I will have to get the Season 1-3 set from Canada (Canada's Season 1) when it comes out to see if the earlier episodes still hold up well...
I dont know how this is a best of set??? Many of the episodes here (6 or 7) didnt belong here at all... Most seemed to have just been picked out at random from the later seasons...
They even had the nerve to include one of the horrifying USA episodes... Talk about disrespect to the fanbase...
I was interested in seeing the 1983-1985 Seasons 1/2 episodes... Not one appears on this set...

David,
How will this set be different from say the US 1st season set if and when it ever comes out? Since it's canadian,
will there be anything that differs from it's US counterpart?
thanks
troy

Can you post a list of exactly which episodes are on this set? Was wondering how many (if any) overlap what is on the Canadian set. |
