Great! That's what I was hoping for. I've been waiting for 7 Days to be released on DVD for years. I don't know why they put the Highlander set in fake widescreen, though. I'm glad that they put this show in the correct aspect ratio. Anyway, thank you for replying so quickly.
-Mike
Harry-N: Since you have the 7 Days DVD set, I have to ask you a question. Are all of the episodes in full frame aspect ratio (as they're supposed to be) or did VEI put them in cropped widescreen, such as the annoying way that they did the Highlander series set? Please reply ASAP. (I want to get...
Heather, I'm glad that you enjoyed reading all of the posts on my thread. Yes, it's hard to believe that I created this thread back in 2006 and people are still posting replies to it 12 years later. It's crazy. It just shows me how popular "Sightings" was and that it would probably be a good...
I am just now reading this post on March 1, 2018, as HTF didn't send me an e-mail notification about this reply on my thread, for some reason. This IS interesting news, Mattfire64. I didn't know most of this info. Unfortunately, when I clicked on your link, a page came up that stated "This site...
Has anyone here heard if Baywatch and its spin-off series Baywatch Nights are going to be released on Region 1 DVD sets either this year (2016) or next year (2017)? (There is a Baywatch theatrical movie coming out next year (I think in May 2017), so I was wondering if any Baywatch TV series...
Everyone is entitled to their opinions, but I never thought that Sightings came off as a poor man's knockoff of Unsolved Mysteries. As others have pointed out, Unsolved Mysteries was a good show, but the bulk of the show mainly dealt with crime story mysteries. They did just enough paranormal...
In reply to Mattfire64 and Pathfiner:
Mattfire64 - As for the reason that Sightings was cancelled after only one season and a series of 5 specials on the Sci Fi Channel: I don't know for sure, but my guess is that the show didn't get the ratings that S.F.C. wanted. If you go to tvtango.com and...
Quote: With VEI starting to release much of CBS's back catalog recently, I sent them an e-mail this morning about the show. They got back to me this afternoon and told me that Sightings did "cross their interest", but that they were too many issues to get the show out on DVD. Sadly they didn't...
I want "Encounters: The Hidden Truth" and "The Paranormal Borderline" to be released on DVD. For those who aren't familiar with these TV shows, I'm including brief summaries of them.
Encounters: The Hidden Truth was an hour-long TV series that featured real-life stories of paranormal...
Well, as I feared, Sightings was not even mentioned on the SyFy 20th Anniversary Special. That's a shame as it was the last chance for the show to get some recognition on an anniversary special. It wouldn't have hurt them any to at least flash the logo of the show briefly during the special, but...
I recently saw a commercial for the upcoming SyFy 20th Anniversary Special which is scheduled to air on December 10th. As most of you know, the 5th (and final) season of "Sightings" aired on the Sci Fi Channel (now called "SyFy"). Sci Fi also aired 5 original Sightings specials in the year after...
I'm checking in again to voice my disappointment in the Fox 25th Anniversary Special that recently aired. Out of the 2 hours of that special, "Sightings" wasn't mentioned at all. When I first heard about the special, Fox was still putting it together and it was several weeks before it was going...
I also read that "In Search Of" is going to be released on DVD later this year (if they get the rights to a couple of videos shown in an episode or two of the series). I'm also hoping that this will eventually lead to "Sightings" being released on DVD. I doubt that Paramount will be the company...
I PM'ed the Paramount insider about any news for this show. He (or she) said that there are still no plans to release Sightings on DVD as of this time. The insider said that new titles are being added all of the time and he (or she) would let me know if Sightings is added to their schedule in...
To Paramount insider:
As the guy who started this thread, I would also like to thank you for your reply. At least now I know it won't be released this year. But I'm still hoping for a possible 2011 Sightings release. Thanks again for letting us know!
-Mike T.
Even though I would prefer the whole seasons, at this point, I would take anything! I don't know why Paramount hasn't released "Sightings" and the other shows I mentioned on DVD. Maybe they're not interested or they think they won't sell. Maybe there are rights issues between the various...
I am bringing this thread back up because I found out that Paramount Home Entertainment is watching this site now. I still hope that they decide to release "Sightings" on standard DVD in season sets and maybe if they see this thread, it will help.
I think that Paramount also owns the...
Okay, I was just going by the fact that TVShowsonDVD.com states that the license to the 1990s TV show "Sightings" is owned by Paramount Home Entertainment. Also, on the Paramount site, it listed the "Sightings" VHS tapes that were sold back in the '90s under Paramount Home Video. So, I'm...
Has Home Theater Forum had a Paramount Home Video Q & A session yet? If not, does anyone know if they will have one with them in the future (and when) ? I really want to get on here with them and ask them about some TV shows that I would like to see released on DVD. I know that Warner Bros...
Hope no one minds if I start up this old thread again. I'm still hoping that Paramount will wise up and release "Sightings" on DVD soon. I haven't heard anything about it, but it never hurts to hope. I've written letters and e-mails to a few other DVD companies in hopes that maybe they can buy...
I'm a big fan of paranormal documentary shows, so: -Sightings (much wanted in season sets, unedited) -In Search Of... (the original version with Nimoy/ seasons) -Encounters: The Hidden Truth -The Paranormal Borderline (not likely, since there were only 9 episodes) -Mysteries, Magic, &...
Just thought I would type a few things and keep this going.
My favorite topics on the show were UFOs and creatures (such as Bigfoot, werewolves, lake monsters, etc.). The UFO / airplane pilot encounters and Bigfoot segments were especially intriguing and fun to watch. (I wish that they had...
I definitely want full episodes ("warts and all"), full-season releases. (I know I've already said this, but it bears repeating.) I suppose I would accept "by subject" releases (if that is the ONLY way that they would do it), but I would much prefer the full-episode season treatment. I like to...
Good questions, Nick. If you are talking about the people who were interviewed, similar shows which had interviews on them have been released on DVD (such as "Unsolved Mysteries" and "Mysteries, Magic, & Miracles", among others). So, there doesn't seem to be a problem with that for most...
I should have stated earlier that I would prefer this show to be released in the current standard DVD format. I know that many people are talking about the new high definition blue ray DVDs and players on this site, but I have a standard DVD player and I won't be buying a new "blue ray" DVD...
Does anyone remember two Japanese kids' shows in the late 1970s? I think they were called "Spectreman" and "Space Giants". Spectreman: A guy turns into a giant super hero to fight monsters. Space Giants: A family of robots(?) that can turn into flying jets or spaceships. Their names were...
There was a cartoon series in the mid-1990's about a small group of monster hunters. They fought werewolves, vampires, etc. I think it ran in syndication for only one season. It wasn't the best adventure cartoon I've ever seen, but it wasn't bad. I want to call it "Monster Hunters", but I'm not...
