Fresh Prince, Full House, Night Court - 2/8/05 (1 Viewer)

[David Lambert]

"Whose Line" is the Drew Carey version.

I don't think these are the syndicated versions, but I don't watch a lot of syndication reruns so I'm not the best judge without something to compare it to.

Night Court is 2 single-sided discs, and was always planned to be (only 13 eps in the sort first season). Murphy, Fresh Prince, and Full House are changed from 2-disc double-sided to 4-disc single-sided.

Warner seems to be switching away from DVD-18s, per the recent announcements of West Wing S4 and ER S3. I wonder if there's a shortage of these on the market or something, because many DVD delays recently are sets that planned to use DVD-18s.

Even if the sticker isn't on the packaging, I think David or Gord said earlier that the bonus disc is still inside.

I'm picking up Fresh Prince hopefully tomorrow, but if I can't, Saturday. From what I've heard, I'm not too thrilled with the packaging from the sound of it, but as long as the discs are alright, I'm just glad to have the show on DVD.

 

[Anthony Wolfe]

Yea, that's what it's all about. Thanks for the correction Dave, I don't like DVD-18's at all, I think the whole Dual-Sided thing is terrible, I mean, what is going on, I stick it in a case, and both sides are liable to get damaged, there is no winning with those things...aye aye aye...I was never so happy to hear that Fresh Prince was making a switch.

I hope there is a shortage of them...like gone...

On the syndication thing, I don't think they're syndicated, considering the Fresh Prince episode aren't the syndicated versions, but I'm in the same boat as David in that I have no direct comparison.

Can anyone post a volume to volume list for the "Warner Televisions 50th anniversary celebration" bonus shows and to which sets they're attached to?

I got Night Court so I know about "Perfect Stangers" and "Who's Line.." as being part of "Volume 3" any way.

I thought someone mentioned this earlier but I can't find it. Which episode was a two-parter that's only one episode on the DVD?

 

[Dillon*G]

Also Jamie Foxx.

The episode "Someday Your Prince Will Be In Effect" is subtitled "Parts 1 and 2" on the episode menu, but the booklet gives one airdate (10/29/90). The next episode is from exactly a week later. Was this an episode that originally aired in two parts or was it double-length?

The main reason for its extra length is clips from prior episodes, but I'm still curious.

 

[JasonLa]

My guess would be this was aired in a one hour time slot. Looking at the info on tvtome lists it as 2 parts (probably split for syndication) with the same air date for both.

Man I can't wait to watch night court. I think I'm going to wait until next weekend and watch it with my dad over at my parents house. We used to watch this show together every time it was on.

 

[JasonLa]

For full house how come the unaired pilot is like almost 27 minutes but the aired episodes are almost 25 minutes long?

 

[AnthonyC]

Don't worry--they aren't edited. Since pilots aren't usually aired on TV, they sometimes go a little longer/shorter than actual episodes.

Any news on Fresh Prince S2?

 

[Paul Miller]

Good to see the Fresh Prince of Bell Air get a second season release, is there any news on any of the other WB First Season Titles that were all released on the same day like Murphy Brown and Night Court?

Hopefully season 2 of Full House won't be far away either.

 

[ElijahS]

PLEASE let Murphy Brown be releasing the same day...

 

[Doug Wallen]

More Night Court please.

 

[AnthonyC]

Fresh Prince is four discs again for season 2, right? And does anyone know if the packaging will be changed?

 

[Johnny S]

Yes Fresh Prince: Season 2 will be 4 discs again! And the packiging will be the overlapping digi-pak again. I think.

 

[AnthonyC]

I'm getting Fresh Prince S2 tomorrow...anyone who already has it, what's the packaging style?

 

[Gord Lacey]

It's the overlapping style like before.
