    Time/Life Press Release: Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In: The Complete Series

    The video also looks rather good, I will say! :) CHEERS! :)

    Time/Life Press Release: Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In: The Complete Series

    On a side note, the videotaped sketches look proper to my eyes on the Netflix presentation of JOHN CLEESE'S PERSONAL BEST, from the 2005 Monty Python's Personal Best series. CHEERS! :)

    Time/Life Press Release: Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In: The Complete Series

    I can still tell the difference, but the MPFC video segments just don't display their original brightness, especially in the first two series. At least, the film to video ratio is fairly high with Python, which is not at all my recall with R&ML-IN. Did they even have filmed segments in every...

    Time/Life Press Release: Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In: The Complete Series

    I'm currently noticing a fake film like appearance in the non filmed segments of MONTY PYTHON'S FLYING CIRCUS, which is now available on Canadian Netflix. Is this also prevalent in the complete DVD series release? CHEERS! :)

    Time/Life Press Release: Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In: The Complete Series

    Without having the privilege of viewing any of the DVDs, I suspect the visual results could be somewhat a "Your mileage might vary" according to one's individual setup. This is one series that I would very much like to get individual seasons of, at some point, finances permitting. CHEERS! :)

    Time/Life Press Release: Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In: The Complete Series

    Could it be that any video related anomalies are more obvious on some Televisions than others? I ask this with the mindset that any not original to broadcast jerky movements would be most bothersome to me, whereas, I could probably live with the reported film like appearance by itself. CHEERS! :)

    Time/Life Press Release: Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In: The Complete Series

    I'm not sure how it'll translate for Canadian orders, but buying the seasons individually is pretty much the only viable way for me to get this series, which I may start doing after we move. The first two seasons might make for a nice Christmas gift! :) CHEERS! :)

    Time/Life Press Release: Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In: The Complete Series

    Since Prime has been reported as not being a representative source, perhaps the next best thing might be to just buy the R&MLI Season 1 Time-Life DVD set, as it is less expensive than the rest. That way, you're not out many $ if its visual presentation proves a deal breaker for you, and you can...

    Time/Life Press Release: Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In: The Complete Series

    This series delightfully surprising availability is probably my biggest regret (At least I have THE MONKEES 2 Seasons on DVD!) of our having to direct all available spare funds elsewhere! Even the individual seasons are currently out of my reach! :( I'm glad that others are getting to enjoying...

    Time/Life Press Release: Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In: The Complete Series

    Regarding SD content on Blu-ray discs, the inevitable interlacing further reduces its visual quality, and tends to produce an undesirable stair step effect. In other words, for maximum visual quality, you DON'T want SD material on the Blu-ray format, but DVDs, where SD material doesn't have to...

    Time/Life Press Release: Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In: The Complete Series

    The odds might not be in my favor, but more and more, I find myself hoping for a massive discount for this set! Unlike the unfortunate situation with the many Carol Burnett sets, LAUGH-IN sounds like the real deal, in terms of completeness! Yeah, who would have ever thought this possible? Not...

    That's Alan Sues, NOT Seuss. However, I do wonder whether Alan liked Green Eggs & Ham? ;) CHEERS! :)

    Time/Life Press Release: Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In: The Complete Series

    Unfortunately, as with last year's THE MONKEES Blu-ray series set, I have to reluctantly pass, as it is so far beyond my financial reach. It's fantastic that ALL of the episodes are finally getting released, nevertheless! Hopefully, the vast majority of, if not all, music clearances were able...
