I would love to see Twelve O'Clock High released to dvd. I have the original movie, but would love to own the TV series.
Count me in on this one as well. I have the "History Channel" captures, thanks to a good friend here. They're good Q but edited. The edits aren't too intrusive to me but I'd get a pro set if available.younger1968 said:I would love to see Twelve O'Clock High released to dvd.

Wow, didn't know there was such a thing. Details please.Harry-N said:My experience with the MeTV broadcasts are that they're unedited, full episodes, but time-sped to cram 52 minutes of programming into about 46 minutes. With one of my DVD players that has a speed control, I can slow these episodes down to something approaching normal.

My older Sony DVD player, a DV-NS50P model, has a slow and fast playbck button on the remote. Click the slow once and the playback slows to "0.9", which I suppose is about a 1% slowdown. Click it twice, it's "0.8" - and it goes down to "0.6".Neil Brock said:Wow, didn't know there was such a thing. Details please.
Are you referring to the music from 12 O'Clock High? It was on a couple of years before Star Trek.Harry-N said:I wouldn't be surprised to find out it's a music issue with the "Fanfare" that sounds like it was lifted from STAR TREK. Harry
Yeah - it's not a matter of which was first, just that someone might be suing someone else. Just a thought - the similarity is quite remarkable.David_B_K said:Are you referring to the music from 12 O'Clock High? It was on a couple of years before Star Trek.
There is a tiny little fanfare that plays before Dominic Frontiere's sweeping main theme on 12 O'Clock High. I suppose one could say it has a similar vibe to the fanfare that begins the Star Trek music; but I don't think a case could be made that either copies the other. I need to listen to it on an episode to compare it. Most of my 12 O'Clock High episodes were taped off a channel with "Nostalgia" in its name. I used to get the channel back when I had C-band dish in the late 90's.Randy Korstick said:I recently watched the entire 12 o' clock high series on METV and never noticed any similarity to Star Trek in the music so if there is one its very slight. I'm not sure which fanfare is being referred to.
