That is definitely what I'm going to do Tony! I'm going to give them a call as soon as I can and let them know that this doesn't look like a widespread issue; I've been waiting 2 weeks now to continue watching these Bowery Boy classics and I don't want to wait much longer! Hopefully they'll give in and send me a replacement set after I mention that I talked to you guys here on the HTF.

Thanks Tony! I have tried out the disc on two dvd players and also my PS3, which usually plays discs even my other dvd players have trouble playing. It paused at about 39 minutes in, and it didn't just skip, the movie refused to play at all and I have to turn off my player. It's a bummer to because The Bowery Boys are some of my favorite movies! I've been contacting Warner Archives about this, but as of yet I have not been able to get them to give me a return copy :/.

Just curious. Did you look at the playing side of the disc to see if there were any scuffs or handling marks . Sometimes that causes a disc to freeze or skip.

That was the first thing I did, but the disc is flawless. If so I could just take the disc to a local dvd shop and get it buffed out, but unfortunately that's not the case. Just probably a bad/faulty disc. Giving WB a call tomorrow and hope to be watching "Ghost Chasers" soon!
