I have had discs sent to me for the 1st 6 seasons of the show, below are the reviews - BUY THEM AT

www.amazon.de

FAR OUT MAN !!!


I am by know means a video or audiophile, I am an everyday person who enjoys high quality shows and blu-rays. I will skip the review about the show because IF you are reading this you know about the plot already.I was sent a copy of the 1st 2 seasons by the production company from Germany.


MENUS:Has German language but is easy to navigate even if you do not know German by using common sense as to where each section is at. The song playing in background appears to be the song from season 2 and beyond (not the 1st season variant of the theme song. The background is the kids jumping up and down (sorta like the scene bumpers from the tv show) but hidden within the lush colorscape.AUDIO:Has German & English subs available and 2.0 Master Audio that is true to the original American & German tv broadcasts. The show being dialog driven is very crisp and easy to understand and also the audio pitch is perfect no "PAL speedup" is noticed (on SD & HD material) on the English audio. The music that plays in the background is very crisp and according to Tiberius the music is the same as German tv broadcast, now IF their are music subs I don't know because I watched the episodes and in a few spots I noticed song differences, but not having watched the series during its original broadcast run, I do not know which version (Tiberius or Mill Creek) has the most original music.VIDEO:The German episodes are all uncut. The Mill Creek episodes do appear a bit brighter (1 or 2 shades) then the Tiberius versions, but the Tiberius ones to me feel more like the 70s would appear on film. Now the German video is 1080i and suprsingly to me is just as rock solid as the 1080p Mill Creek releases. Actually in some of the video it has more fine detail in the German release over the Mill Creek release. I found no instances of aliasing or compression artifacts in the German release. - Season2 does not appear to have same problems of Mill Creek's release of Season 2.EXTRAS:These are the same as the American version.ON SCREEN:The opening titles are in German and when they list the day and time onscreen it's stylized in German words. Also when there are onscreen words during the scene they are also in German as well. The starting and end credits are all in English.CONCLUSION:A very solid relase by Tiberius and for any consumer it would be a great addition along side their Mill Creek versions of Season 1 & 2.________________________________________________________________
STONE COLD GAS MAN !!!

Now the German video is 1080i and are superior to the AMAZON + ITUNES and other cloud versions out there. I found no instances of aliasing or compression artifacts in the German release. When viewing these versus what MILL CREEK put out on DVD is NIGHT & DAY. Tiberius is the clear choice for owning this series on disc. These will not be removed by a cloud service, you will own them and that is always the way to decide when you own your media.EXTRAS:These 2 releases contain the same as the American DVD versions of Season 3 & 4 - EXCEPT - SEASON 4 has TV SPOTS for all the episodes that Mill Creeks DVD release for that season lacks. - THE 1ST 1000 COPIES COMES WITH SLIPCOVER.ON SCREEN:The opening titles are in German and when they list the day and time onscreen it's stylized in German words. Also when there are onscreen words during the scene they are also in German as well. The starting and end credits are all in English.CONCLUSION:A very solid release by TIBERIUS and for any consumer a SUPERIOR replacement for your FOX and MILL CREEK DVD versions of Season 3 & 4.

KEEP YOUR HEAD OUT OF THE CLOUDS, MAN!VIDEO: ---ADDED NOTE--- The Masters for these episodes were found by the German company releasing them to have several errors (which Carsey Warner, ITUNES and Mill Creek missed !!!) But the producer in Germany found the errors nobody in 5 years could and they are all corrected EXCLUSIVELY (as of the day of this review being posted) on these Blu-Ray sets of Seasons 5 & 6EXTRAS:These 2 releases contain the same extras as the American DVD versions of Seasons 5 & 6 - EXCEPT - SEASON 6 has a 10 minute+ long BLOOPER REEL (Some funny stuff in there) that Fox's & MillCreek's DVD release for that season lacks. - THE 1ST 1000 COPIES COMES WITH SLIPCOVER and those slipcovers are housed under the shrink-wrap, not over it.ON SCREEN WORDS:The opening titles are in German and when they list the day and time onscreen it's stylized in German words. Also when there are onscreen words during the scene they are also in German as well. The starting and end credits are all in English.CONCLUSION:Another "FAR OUT" set of releases by TIBERIUS and for any consumer SUPERIOR replacements of your FOX and MILLCREEK DVD versions of Season 5 & 6.

since you STUPIDLY CAN NOT EDIT POTS ANYMORE AFTER CERTAIN AMOUNT OF TIME - I NEED FOLLOWING ADDITION TO THEM ABOVE

EACH COVER IS A DUAL COVER FOR THE COVER ART - SO YOU CAN TURN THEM INSIDE OUT AND NOT HAVE TO SEE THE HUGE RATING LABEL



COVER ART:Is in German language with big ratings label on front, BUT TIBERIUS is FAR OUT MAN because the covers are reversible so you can reverse the cover art and that ratings label disappears MAN.

I received an email from Amazon.de stating the complete series Blu-ray boxset was delayed from OCT 2 until OCT 22. However, looking at Amazon.de, it looks like the season 7 and 8 Blu-ray sets are still set to release OCT 2.
