Definitely the girlfriend lol

So I haven’t been here in a while. Got a new girlfriend a few months ago and haven’t been watching a lot of my usual TV shows on disc. Been so long I forgot how much time and money they take lol. Anyway I’ve had the first season of Kojak on my shelf for a long time and just started watching...

Thanks to a heads up on this forum I bought the complete Streets of San Francisco DVD set from Walmart a few years ago for $20. It does look great, like Columbo and Mannix. It really shows when studios care about the product they release. And it shows when they’re just in it to make a buck too.

I bought the complete Columbo series years ago and watched the first season. At the time I was thinking it’s ok, not super impressed but I realize it takes time for a series to hit it’s stride. So a few nights ago I started the second season. I’m liking it more now. I definitely think the...

Referring to Spenser For Hire.

I got season one of this a few weeks ago and would love to watch it. Unfortunately no subtitles and no CC. So I’m SOL unless I can get it streaming and they offer subtitles.

We had a rough day of rain, our high was around 70.

Continuing the Buck Rogers Blu-ray set, on disc 3 now of the first season. It’s definitely a product of it’s time, the late 70’s. I don’t say that as a bad thing. I dig it (see what I did there). The clothes, disco music, guest stars, I love it all. Seeing things like props that were used in...

JAG was a series I didn’t want to end. Even after 10 seasons I was literally sad knowing the last episode was it. I enjoyed season 1 although I think it became a better show with the revamping in season 2. At the time when I was finishing the first season, I put in disc 1 of the second season...

Well after watching on and off for years I finally finished Mannix last night. I doubt I’ll revisit it again but you never know. In season 6 of St Elsewhere. It’s still enjoyable but I really don’t care much for Ronny Cox coming in to take over. He’s a solid actor but it just doesn’t work for...

Tonight I watched two episodes from season four of The Twilight Zone. I’m not really a fan of the hour long format but I enjoyed the second episode “No Time like the Past”. Left me wondering if it had influenced BTTF 3. After that was a Mannix episode, I have eight left in the last season and...

Midway through season 4 of St Elsewhere. PQ got a lot better in season 2. Well written show, I like it when shows develop their principal characters giving backstory, showing where they live, etc. I’ve heard mention about last episode, final scene, don’t spoil it for me!

Started season 4 of The Twilight Zone Blu-ray set. I still marvel at how well done this set it. May be the finest Blu-ray transfer of a TV series ever. Also got Hulu so I could pick on St Elsewhere where I left off, I have the first/only season on DVD. Really enjoying this one. I’m sure it...

In addition to watching season 8 of Mannix, I just started the first season of Scarecrow and Mrs. King. I didn’t watch this when first aired although I was around. I remember my brother liked it. Picked up a few seasons awhile back. I watched the first two episodes tonight. Not very...

I have to say I was really surprised by Jag. Rarely do I watch 10 seasons of a show and have the genuine wish it wasn’t over.

Started the final season of Mannix. Kind of a radical car change but I like it, looks like a Camaro (car guys can correct me if I’m wrong, haven’t seen a badge closeup). Moving through Doc Martin rapidly. Very funny British show. Wasn’t sure I’d like it but got the complete series plus the...

In the middle of season one of St. Elsewhere. Man, what a show. I just wish they had released all seasons to DVD. Even though I grew up in that period it’s funny to see people smoking in hospitals. Started the British show Doc Martin. Funny and entertaining. Finally about to start the last...

I bought the complete Little House on the Prairie digitally awhile ago, got it cheap $20. I remembered a little of it from back when it was first run but not all that much. , I was very impressed. Great acting, good writing. The HD presentation looks great. Not too many shows I watch for 9...

So I could use a DVD player remote? How do I get it to learn commands?

Watched 4 episodes tonight. Looks great. Money well spent. The colors and the definition are so much better than the DVDs. I’ll still buy a Blu-ray set if it ever gets released here domestically with subtitles. Otherwise this will be the best I’ll ever see it. Obviously I don’t have a...

Bought it and an Apple TV today!

I’m into so many series right now and added another, streaming an HD version of Magnum P.I. from Prime. It’s looks waaay better than my DVDs, I’m limiting it to two episodes per evening. I have read some on here say that iTunes versions of various shows look better than Prime, while I’m happy...

Honestly I didn’t like it as much after RDA basically left.

I just broke out my DVD sets of this. I have the earliest releases as I bought them as they came out. It’s been five years or so since I watched them. Watched two episodes from season one tonight. These sets are 1:78 widescreen. I thought for sure they were the OAR. Getting older...can’t...

I enjoyed season one with the “spy technology” type of genre it was set in. Season two brings big changes. I do enjoy it, just sometimes it feels lacking. As mentioned, not a binge type of show for me. Mix in a few episodes here and there. Regardless, I’m 3/4 of the way through the set, I’m...

Switched it up quite a bit last night. First was two more episodes of Streets of SF. In my experience most shows usually take at least half of the first season getting things together. This show has been great right out of the gate. Well written scripts. Great scenery. Enjoying the early...

I hope so too. If your phone can have it why not the tv?

The colors look great. If MC had bothered to include CC or subtitles I buy it in a second. If it becomes available digitally with subs I’m in.

This is the Blu-ray set?

Those screenshots look great for being from a DVD.
