Re: Burke's Law/Honey West

I have seen this show before and have always enjoyed

when that channel was worth talking about)!
my set is on it's way from DeepDiscount(only $24.38)!

Re: Burke's Law/Honey West

MANY THANKS, TIM!
I would have never known about this! So, now I will be getting Honey West and both Volumes of Burke’s Law for a total of 49.99 AND FREE SHIPPING!
If, like me, you were “on the fence” on these titles – you’ll probably never have a better opportunity than this! Go check it out before the offer expires!

Re: Burke's Law/Honey West
I love my Honey West and Burke's Law dvds. Great picture quality and uncut episodes. I have enjoyed rewatching shows I thought I would never see again.

I wonder what the reviewer meant by this:

If this is endemic of the entire release, it's a real head-scratcher--was this "time compression" added to make these broadcast ready for cable? I'd love to have more information.

Anyone else seeing this problem?

Re: Burke's Law/Honey West
Add my thanks to Tim! I got both the complete Honey West and the second half of the first season of Burke's Law, along with several other titles.
Bring "The continuing story of PEYTON PLACE" to DVD: the one that started it all- from Dallas and Dynasty to Desperate Housewives and Dirty Sexy Money!!! Tell Fox Home Video to bring this TV classic out of the vaults and onto store shelves!

Re: Burke's Law/Honey West
Re: The time compression issue
I've watched the first three episodes and have noticed some minor instances where the audio track gets out of synch for a brief second or two, but I don't think it's an issue of time compression since the episodes are timing out in the 51 minute range which would be correct for a mid-1960s television show. On an overall basis, VCI has done nice work with both "Burke's Law" and "Honey West." I really hope that we'll see season 2 of "Burke's Law" in the future.
