David, does your crystal ball tell you if season 3 will be on single sided discs this time?

Yep. Single-sided. Almost assuredly. Hitchcock S.2 (with an identical number of half-hour shows as all LITB campaigns -- 39) being put on 5 one-sided discs is enough of a reason to think that LITB will follow suit with exactly that same format. Although the coming release of "Quantum Leap 5" still being on DVD-18s has me troubled just a tad. That's the only TV release from Universal of late that I've seen still being placed on 2-sided platters.

I have yet to get season 2 for that reason...

I haven't had a single problem with any of the LITB discs (S.1 or S.2). The "Bad Universal 2-Sided Discs" problem is definitely hit-&-miss in nature. I've had only one minor 1-minute hiccup with any of my Universal double-siders. That was a movie disc, not TV. And the replacement disc I received for that one bad one plays perfectly.

My advice to any Beaver fan is to take a chance and get LITB 1 and 2. The shows are certainly worth the risk. And if you use Amazon, there's absolutely no risk at all really (and very little inconvenience). You don't even have to leave the house to make a return or an exchange (via Amazon's fabulous "Returns & Exchanges" set-up, with pre-paid labels easily available from their site).

If you get crappy discs, just keep returning them till you get a set that plays perfectly all the way through. (The Beav and The Wally will thank you for your perseverance.)

Yeah...that could be a drag (esp. if you have to return the same thing over and over again, and wait considerable time for each of them).

But, then again, The Beav's worth the wait. (Ward too.)
