Concerning the MONO sound, here is a bizarre one:
If you play episode 5 on Disc 3 (The episode is called "Job Hunting" ...I think). The episode is mono, but from about 7:00 to 7:30 (end of chapter 3 and beginning of chapter 4), the sound suddenly switches to stereo for about 30 seconds. The music and the laugh track are obviously in stereo (I was listening with headphones, so it was like night and day, and quite frankly it sounded great compared to the rest of the episode).
I didn't listen to the whole episode, so I don't know if there were other stereo bits. The only episode I watched in it's entirety was on disc 3 but it was mono from beginning to end. I didn't check the other 2 discs yet either.
Gee, looks like someone in the sound dept really screwed up! Pretty sad that we were able to listen to this in stereo almost 20 years ago, but not on dvd in 2004.
I have the first 4 seasons on VHS and everything is stereo including pilot episode. AAARGH!!
Gee, this does not say much for quality control at Buena Vista Home Video!
I will write them a letter asking if my discs are defective since the packaging states stereo, and the stereo sound kicked in for a while during at least one episode (I will listen to all episodes before I start ranting and raving on paper though). I will ask if I can get replacement discs, and if I am the only one reporting this problem... ;- )
Think I'll get a reply? Stay tuned...
I hope they don't screw up Season 2, it's the best one!!
