    Daily Show: Indecision 2004 pixelation???

    Towards the beginning of the first episode of disc 2 (the Republican National Convention), is the pixelation during Rob Corrdry's intro part of the show, or a defect on the disc. I guess it would make sense if it were part of the show because of its context, but being the anal DVDite I am, I...

    RED ALERT Three's Company Season Two defective

    Just got my replacements Fed Exed from Anchor Bay. The set came unsealed, so I was a little skeptical. I was even more skeptical when I tried the discs and had the exact same problems. I called Anchor Bay and they assured me that the discs were replaced, so I guess this set just doesn't work on...

    Anyone who has MSTK: Eegah...Please help!

    I'm trying to figure out if I got a bad copy of this disc or not. Does yours do the following: 1) Is there a noice and some color pixelation when the Professor's helicopter is landing? 2) When you manually skip chapters, is chapter 2 the point of the theme that introduces Joel? 3)...

    RED ALERT Three's Company Season Two defective

    I spoke with Anchor Bay customer service today. When I told the woman how widespread the problem appeared to be, she was surprised saying she only got a handful of problems. In any case, she told me to send the entire set back with an address to send a replacement. I've done that, and I will...

    Three's Company S2 Problems

    Just resurrecting this topic because I just bought the set, and am having that exact problem on disc one, episode 4 ("Strange Bedfellows"). I had the problem on both my DVD players, but the ep seems to play fine on my computer. Has Anchor Bay said anything about a widespread problem? Is this...

    "A Streetcar Named Desire"...new DVD?

    The unfortunate passing of Marlon Brando has made me want to buy "Streetcar" on DVD? I know the release was bare-bones, so before I plunk down my money, I was wondering if anyone has heard of a special edition (Warner has been really good about re-releasing their early DVDs.) If such news has...

    'Clerks: 10 Year Aniversary Edition' still coming this year?

    Looks like I'll have two Clerks DVDs. I got the original signed by Kevin Smith, Jason Mewes, and Brian O'Halloran, so there is no way I'm getting rid of that baby! Derek

    Friends Finale DVD contents?

    I just pre-ordered the "Friends" Finale DVD. It says it contains the "two-part" finale. Does that include the hour long clip show NBC is airing before the final episode, or is the two-part finale the one-hour episode? Thanks, Derek

    DVD Review HTF Review: Frankenstein - The Legacy Collection (Highly Recommended!)

    For those who want a better version of "Bride" without buying the set, I just bought the australian version, and while I cannot comment on picture/audio quality (not having seen the new release), according to this review, the framing is significantly better. Derek P.S. Count me in as one...

    Chappelle's Show (Season 1) - Defect on Disc One?

    Welcome to the forum! I had the same problem. It only happens if episode 2 is the first one you select when putting the disc in. Try it again, and you should be fine. Derek
