    Where is "Hill Street Blues" & "St Elsewhere"???!!!

    I need to note that Hulu (and the Hulu window in Disney+) is now missing episodes from every season of St. Elsewhere. I believe some are also mislabeled. I don't remember episodes being missing before, but they are definitely missing up to 4 episodes in some seasons.

    While I'd love to see St. Elsewhere released as a full series by Shout, I don't think it's in the cards at this point. I truly wish it was.

    A Few Words About A few words about…™ 100 Men and a Girl – in Blu-ray

    A few quick notes to catch up: Jack, looking at the nominees for Best Score for 1937, there were several good options. To be fair, I have a feeling that with 14 nominees, this turned into a bit of a bumper car situation, where two or three shows cancelled each other out and another option came...

    A Few Words About A few words about…™ 100 Men and a Girl – in Blu-ray

    I'm standing by to receive my copy of the Kino set. (I should say jumping up and down, but that would be unseemly.) I'm hoping they'll include Three Smart Girls in their releases, along with First Love. The sixth film my grandfather made with Ms Durbin, Spring Parade, is sadly unlikely to...

    DVD Review Hill Street Blues: The Complete Series DVD Review - Recommended

    Ben, yes - I'm referring to the photos right next to the episode names. Some of them are still lined up with the wrong ones, as that was where they'd originally put the episode files. I would love to do a more in-depth review of a series like St. Elsewhere, or Magnum or Miami Vice. NYPD Blue...

    I too have been enjoying that Hulu has made St. Elsewhere available in all seasons. Although they initially drove me crazy by putting some episodes in the wrong order, and the existing photo markers for each episode are not always accurate as a result.

    What's on your Daily Viewing List?

    Thank you for the recommendation. I do need to note that the movie is actually a British adaptation of the 1931 German film ICH BLEIB BEI DIR that my grandfather wrote with Wolfgang Wilhelm. The British film includes I believe the first screen appearance by a young David Niven in an...

    Star Wars: a brief history of the original trilogy on video

    JJ Abrams was asked about whether the original versions could be released in his press events this year - I believe he said that they could not based on complicated things at the studio. I would love to see decent Blu-rays of the original cuts but this sounds like it is unlikely.

    Space:1999 Complete Series from SHOUT FACTORY!

    I thought I'd chime in, now that I've been able to come home from filming and go through the new Shout Factory set. For those who remember a few years back, I did the review here for the A&E Blu-ray set of Season(Series) One. I was particularly interested here to be able to see the new bonus...

    DVD Review Hill Street Blues: The Complete Series DVD Review - Recommended

    Thank you Jim. You've just provided a great example of why this series continues to merit attention. Your points are spot on. And if you dig even farther, you'll find plenty of other really interesting character moments and surprise appearances by actors who would go big on later TV shows...

    The Cotton Club coming to blu-ray in new Director's Cut

    Bumping this thread to keep it in view. I understand that Coppola was asked about Cotton Club Encore at David Lynch's Festival of Disruption last October. He discussed his re-edit of the movie (although his comments may have fooled some people into thinking that he was editing videotape into...

    I have to agree with both of you. I hadn't made all the connections that Mark did, but they are totally valid.
