I also ordered from Amazon & my set (along with Matt Houston) shipped yesterday. I don't mind waiting a few extra days to get it, as it seems like Amazon had the much better price of $25.99.

Had a quick look the other day and the picture's perhaps not remastered but it's entirely acceptable here and more or less much like it was when shown on TV, certainly not looking any worse than most will remember it and that's the important thing. Not bad at all, it's what you might call a solid release.

Season One debuts on R2 in Germany June 25, where it's almost guaranteed to continue all the way through being a monster hit there, so if it ever gets assassinated at home other possible avenues for fans with R2-equipped players exist.

That's good news.  I won't hesitate to get any R2 releases of this show if it stalls in R1.

Any news on how the first season set sold?

 

I'd never actually seen the show but my mum was a big fan so I bought it for her but I've watched it as well and loved it. Really fun show. So I'm hoping to see the 2nd season soon

Yesterday, Axelmusic already sent Season 2 to me.

 

Hopefully Warner will release Season 3 this year as well.

 

In case if Warner will release Season 4 someday, I won´t pick it up because Kate Jackson only made guest appearences due to her breast cancer illness at the time.

It was only the last four episodes where Kate wasn't shown much, she appeared in all of the other eighteen. Season 4 had some great episodes - Night Crawler, Bad Timing, Stemwinder  to name a few, and of course the wedding.smile.gif

Today I received Season 2.

 

The picture quality is O.K. but not as great as some CBS/Paramount remastered series such as "Streets of San Francisco or Hawaii Five 0".

 

Season 2 offered some European locations.

 

Episode 2 plays in Munich. As a German it was hilarious to see how American actors(Kate Jackson, Bruce Boxleitner) pronounced German words like "Glockenspiel" or "Brauhaus"....

 

Hopefully, they´ll release Season 3 this year as well but I think a release date in 2012 is more likely......

Sounds like to me one season per year and it looks to me that all Four seasons will be released by spring of 2013.

 I would guess sales have been strong for the show. I would've thought that sales for Knots Landing would have been strong esp for season 2 but I guess Scarecrow thru WB's is a much better seller. The fans of the show will be thrilled for sure.

Does anyone know if there have been any edits, music or otherwise, the two releases so far? I don't want to toss my CBS network recordings until I'm sure.

I don't know about that, but I can tell you this:

Neil, you are wrong what you said a year earlier. The pilot episode WAS a typical one hour episode. The old L.A. times microfilms that I read at my local library said so. Even this entry from the Library of Congress says so.

53 minutes does seem a bit too long for an hour-long show from the 1980s. Maybe it's supposed to represent how long is not only the episode itself, but also the duration of blank spots in between the segments of the episodes (the blank spots signifying where the commercials/local news updates should go in).

Maybe my memory is getting faulty but if you looked it up on line then I'm sure I must be wrong.

Where is this 53 minutes coming from that you are talking about?

Apparently, my session time out, but here's what the contents said:

1 film reel (53 min.) : sd., col. ; 16 mm.

At the time, hour-long shows were typically 48 minutes without commercials. So what on Earth could 53 minutes signify?
