Any word as to what Universal's plans are regarding season 1-4 Blu-ray sets of The Office? Now that the series is finished, wouldn't upgrading the first four seasons make sense?
At this point in time, one big exception would perhaps be "The Big Bang Theory". Warner released seasons 1 and 2 on bluray last year, while the other bluray seasons have been released in sync with the dvd version.TravisR said:Sitcoms seem to be a real tough sell on Blu-ray.
Make sense, but at the same time, most studios abandon Blu-ray releases for TV series if the previous sets don't sell well enough, like Fox did with How I Met Your Mother with only season 4 being released and WB did with the first seasons of Mike & Molly and 2 Broke Girls. There are others, I'm sure as well. Given season 5-9 of The Office have been released, I would think there could be some kinda of market for their previous season sets.TravisR said:Sitcoms seem to be a real tough sell on Blu-ray. Unfortunately, I think if the seasons of The Office that had come out on Blu-ray had sold well enough to warrant them going back to the earlier years, it would have already started happening at least a year or two ago. I'd guess that the series being over actually works against the earlier seasons coming to Blu-ray because there's no start of a new season to tie a release into.
