Want every season of your favorite show?
They have every season of Bionic Woman, Dragnet,Adam-12 and a whole lot more. Bionic Woman is $78.99. They also have Bewitched.
So far I have found everything I have looked for there.

They're illegal bootlegs.

Re: Want every season of your favorite show?
This site is a bootleg site. Their shows are all recorded off-air.

Re: Want every season of your favorite show?
I was wondering about that, but I wasn't sure how to tell. Thank you.

Any time you see something that advertises every episode of a popular series, and we don't list it on TVShowsOnDVD.com, you can bet it's a bootleg. I've heard from many, many people that ordered from these guys and didn't receive product, or a refund. They're crooks all right, and they're probably making tons of cash doing it.
Barbara, you may want to edit your original posting to remove the name of the site - no point in advertising for them.

All in all, orders of magnitude less people than those getting ripped-off by "legitimate" studios with every manner of defective releases, from cut episodes to unplayable double-sided discs.
Anyone who makes available material the studios refuse to release or have butchered, is performing a valuable service to society.

Re: Want every season of your favorite show?
I actually saw a Google ad for their site on a TCM page earlier today! You would think both entities would be aware of these guys.

Umm...did you even read Gord's post about sites like that NOT sending anything at all? Valuable service to society? How is offering up illegal product, taking (rather naive/ignorant/whatever) people's money and not actually providing them a valuable service to anyone but those asshole's own pockets?
I just wonder why sites like that are allowed to exist without being shut down.

well, from what I've heard, the people who've bought from these people were ripped off. Plus, I'm willing to bet most of the shows are edited as there are a lot of 60's and 70's shows there that were there before the heyday of video

Well, not the ones that take people's money and don't send anything in return. But those whose only "crime" is to make available material the studios have either ruined or refuse to release are providing a valuable service to society.
And in raw dollar terms, the studios are by far the greatest crooks of them all. How many people are stuck with double-sided DVDs that won't play? How many have been disappointed by "complete" sets that are missing music, scenes or entire episodes? These studios deserve nothing but contempt.

Re: Want every season of your favorite show?
I'm glad I posted that and got some opinions before doing something stupid!
Thanks Gord, everyone

Re: Want every season of your favorite show?
I Am so amazed how these sites can advertise so openly and sell complete series which are obvious bootlegs and get away with it.Either the studios just don't care or they don't want to spend the money to have them shut down.

Re: Want every season of your favorite show?
well, I'm mixed on the issue. If a company states outright they aren't planning on continuing with a series on DVD, like Mad About You or Boy Meets World for instance, are they really going to be losing money if the fans who want the rest of the sets will obtain them legally? It's the Seinfeld/Simpsons/X-Files type sets that I think are the more offensive ones to be bootlegging because they're the ones you know are finished/will be finished
