Twilight Zone - The COMPLETE Definitive Collection (28-Disc Set)?
I've come accross several listings for this online, and apparently a street date has been given for October 3rd.
It's supposed to include ALL 128 episodes spanning all five seasons of the show.
I'm just curious if anyone has anymore info regarding the context of this?
How will Image manage to include 28 discs and will they be in those slimline cases or some sort of digipack fold-out this time?
Also, the Definitive Edition of the first season came packaged with a softcover "Twilight Zone Companion Book" which was included in the box... will that be carried over to this new Complete Collection along with ALL of the extras (teasers, radio spots, promos, sponsor ads, commentaries & isolated scores, interviews, etc) from each individual Season Set?
I'm just wondering if anyone has anymore info regarding this set?
Thanks!

There are 156 episodes of the original series, Marco. 
I'm glad I bought all of them season by season last year, so I'll probably pass on this re-release....even if Image decided to put them all of them in a smaller box (such as the impressive packaging that FOX did with the "digipacks" in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer Chosen One set, for example). |

Ask and you shall receive!
No word on the book, but I wouldn't count on it. All the re-pressings of the first season lost that part after a certain time. I hope though... because I plan on picking this up (sold my previously owned seasons 1-2 sets when I heard this was coming).

Re: Twilight Zone - The COMPLETE Definitive Collection (28-Disc Set)?
As much as i like the series, i find it kind of expensive.I have just the old image release of volume 2 of the series.Any chance that when this big box comes out, that the individual seasons drop down to around 50 dollars ? I would love to slowly buy the entire series .

Re: Twilight Zone - The COMPLETE Definitive Collection (28-Disc Set)?
This complete series set is a good deal. I paid around $350 for all five season box sets. 3 from Costco and one from Frys and the first one from Best Buy. Sounds like those who buy the entire series box set now could get it at $100 less, but without the book.
Tony, if you're a Costco member, you might find some of the seasons there still. They were going for $59 a season.

Re: Twilight Zone - The COMPLETE Definitive Collection (28-Disc Set)?
I would bet the farm on the set not having the book. The good thing is that you can get the book very cheap on Amazon.
By the way, there's no radio spots on the sets. There's a relatively current series of radio shows that are adaptations of select episodes.

Re: Twilight Zone - The COMPLETE Definitive Collection (28-Disc Set)?
Yes, that's what I meant.
Maybe I'll hang onto the companion book from the 1st Season set than, when I decide to sell that off and pick up this new Collection. I'm really looking forward to this!

Re: Twilight Zone - The COMPLETE Definitive Collection (28-Disc Set)?
Deep Discount DVD is showing a pre-order price for 345.80, but the tvshowsondvd.com news item says the SRP will be 299.00. Which is right? Any other retailers showing prices yet? I want to get the best deal. Thanks.

Re: Twilight Zone - The COMPLETE Definitive Collection (28-Disc Set)?
A quick question - on the orginal single discs from years and years ago, they had a bunch of cool extras - liner notes about the episodes, some of the bumpers - that sort of thing. Did these extras make it over to the season sets?

The Twilight Zone radio series from the 1990s, hosted by Stacy Keach and featuring contemporary actors such as Jason Alexander, are unfortunately all remakes of 1960s episodes, but if you want them all you can get them if you're a Sirius Satellite subscriber. Sirius runs them every weekend -- Saturdays and Sundays at 8 PM Eastern (11 PM Pacific) on Radio Classics -- Channel 118. |
