Hogan's Heroes S1 boxset query? (1 Viewer)

[Carlo S]

To those that already have this set, just a query not sure if its only to do with me, but I noticed on my set, that disk 2 had the first 7 eps and disk 1 had the sewcond 7 eps....

Anyone else had the same happen

 

[Steve Phillips]

I heard something about an early batch of sets with this issue. A recall was mentioned but really it is no big deal, just watch Disc 2 before Disc 1 and all is well...

A couple of the early reviews noted this problem and said that Paramount promised the sets would be corrected by street date. Guess not.

For any of you that have the set already, would you mind going over to Scott Kimball's review thread and checking out my most recent post? I've listed the run times on the pilot episode and three other Season 1 episodes from the CBS Video VHS releases from the late '90's. According to another poster, there may be a possibility that the pilot episode is edited on the new DVD set.

What about the DVD releases of this show from Columbia House some time ago, is the Pilot ep would that be uncut?

Gord just posted news about the problem with the contents of the discs being reversed:

His item also includes the number to call to get your situation resolved if you received one of the reversed sets.

The Discs beign reversed is really nothing when you think about it (i just put disc 2 in disc 1 holder and vice versa)

but this edited pilot i like to be able to get the full version pilot if i can

 

[Jeff Willis]

fyi, for those that have the "switched-disk" sets, like me, I just called the phone # that TSoD posted and they were super-nice . I have a replacement set coming in ~2 weeks.

OT: If only Universal was as nice about giving us TV/DVD fanatics some upcoming info from their "Ft Knox" vault of press releases ....sorry....just a little impatience for a few Uni-owned TV series that I'm wanting badly

 

[Carlo S]

It doesnt concern me that the discs are reversed......i still got all eps, they all work fine, nuthing is wrong with them so thats what counts

Anyone who got a mislabeled copy, where did you get it? I wonder if mislabeled copies were sent everwhere, or if it can be isolated to certain stores. As Carlos says, it's not a big deal, but I'd like to get a correct set if I can.

 

[Billy P. Floyd]

Got mine from Amazon.com and the disks 1 and 2 where switched at birth.

 

[Jeff Willis]

Ditto for me.

I got it from Circuit City today and it was labelled correctly. I do wish they had gone with the Brady Bunch thinpaks that hold two discs in one, as it would have made it thinner. Still, it's not bad.

 

[Dan Lindley]

Hi, I got mine from Amazon, where I had preordered, and mine were switched, too.

Now the question on everyone's minds... when does Season 2 come out?
