Yes, we TV fanatics have to nip this behavior in the bud!

^While good titles, those are not TV on DVD/BR titles...

You are correct sir. Apologies.

^Part of me wishes I'd waited on that all-in-one release. I got a good price on the individual seasons but not quite that good and I've still not made my way through the entire series!

It's not the last set I've bought, but I thought this might be of interest here. King Of Queens blu-ray from Germany. Region free. Comes in a pizza box.

Bought the 3 Blu-ray disc set of "The Night Of", the very highly acclaimed HBO 8 hour plus limited series which premiered on HBO in July of 2016. Can't wait to start watching it as Rotten Tomatoes not only gave the series a 95% fresh rating, but the consensus of the opinions that Rotten Tomatoes surveyed for "The Night Of" was summarized by the site saying "The Night Of is a richly crafted, exquisitely performed mystery that will keep viewers enthralled and leave them devastated."

I pre ordered Gunsmoke Season 13, V1 and 2, on Amazon Canada at $30.89 Canadian each...that's $23.60 each in American Dollars at the current exchange rate...Amazon Canada currently has double postings for both volumes, V1 and 2 with the cover image attached at $42.09 CAN ($32.16 U.S.) and another set of postings WITHOUT THE COVER IMAGE at the aforementioned $30.89 CAN ($23.60 U. S.)...don't ask me to explain any of this, of course, as it is the usual price algorithms of automation at work, and our Canadian dollar has been falling against the U.S. greenback all this week...what I do know is they always honor these pricing mistakes. American customers can always cancel their pre order if a better deal arises before May 22... but for the time being, this is the best pricing I've found...and a nice deal, even if you include shipping...your dollar will likely appreciate against ours in the interim too!

In WalMart today and found the Gunsmoke Season 1-4 ($32.96) all-in-one, last one left, so I brought it home. Sure do enjoy these remastered episodes.

My deal of the day... stopped in a pawn shop today and got this brand new... still sealed for $1.00!

Botherly Love is put to the test as all thirteen Season One episodes of the action-packed adventure series Simon & Simon arrive on DVD for the first time! Gerald McRaney and Jameson Parkey star as the sibling sleuths whose approach to fighting crime are as unrelated as they come. A.J. (Parker) is slick, sophisticated and ambitious.

Along for the exciting ride are popular guest stars Markie Post, Peter Graves, Jerry Stiller and More!

The Californians, Season 2, Bluray

The Californians, Season 2, Bluray

Sweet Bro! Did you take the 10, to the 405, to the Ventura Freeway to go pick it up?

 

[Jeff Flugel]

Perry Mason, Season 1, Vol. 2
Riptide, Season 1 (guilty pleasure fave from my teenage years, one season will be enough of this one)
Rawhide, Season 1 (already have season 2; just need to get season 3 completed and then I'll call it good for this series)
The Beverly Hillbillies, Season 2 (likewise will probably be satisfied after I pick up season 3)
Bewitched, Seasons 1 & 2 (non-colorized episodes, of course)

Plus:

The Fugitive: The Complete Series (I already own the half-season sets for seasons 1 and 2, but at $35, the Complete Series set is less than what I would pay to pick up season 3 and 4 individually. And, if I'm lucky, I'll be able to avoid the music substitution issues that plagued the middle 2 seasons on the original half-season releases.

Hope to grab the season one Blu-Ray of The Outer Limits soon as well...

Riptide, Season 1 (guilty pleasure fave from my teenage years, one season will be enough of this one)

Why would only one go of that 1984-86 NBC detective/action series (the first one, early '84) be enough for you?

 

[Mike Frezon]

Mister Rogers' Neighborhood: It's a Beautiful Day

But PBS has apparently screwed up this release and NOT included the "bonus" first-ever B&W episode of the show...

 

[Jeff Flugel]

Why would only one go of that 1984-86 NBC detective/action series (the first one, early '84) be enough for you?

A couple of reasons, Ben. I'm not a completist, so for many series, a one season "taster/sampler" is enough for me, just to have some episodes of a given show. Of course, if I really love a show and feel it maintains its quality all the way through its run, then I will gladly buy all seasons (for example, I promptly bought all 4 seasons of The Wild Wild West as they came out, as that is one of my all-time fave shows).

Also, in many cases, I just don't want all seasons of a show (i.e., like many fans, I'd wager, I only own the first 5 seasons of The Andy Griffith Show - the Barney Fife years, basically. I'd be up for watching some of the later seasons, but don't feel the need to own them.) Riptide is a show I loved as a teen, and I've seen enough clips on YouTube to think I'd still enjoy it. But I'm not willing to take a chance on getting the whole thing and being stuck with a show I don't really care for anymore. Taking a punt on season 1 (which is the season I remember the best) for $10 is a fair gamble.

Finally, there seems to be some music substitution issues which affect season 2 and beyond...but so far, I've not heard of those problems occurring in the season 1 set.

Of course, sometimes it's cheaper to buy a complete series set than individual seasons, but it all comes down to how much I like a show and whether I think I'll ever watch all the episodes (not to mention storage issues).
