What's the last TV DVD/Blu-ray you bought? (3 Viewers)

[The Obsolete Man]

Doc Martin Series 1,3, and 5
.

If you're collecting the entire series, beware the US versions, because season 6 in the US suffers from Quaalude syndrome, aka NTSC slowdown and no pitch correction, which leaves everyone talking and sounding sloooooooooooooooooooow. I switched to R2 releases afterward just in case, and re-bought 6 from the UK because of it.

Thanks for the heads up, I probably would have just gone ahead and purchased it.

That looks like a really good deal, Dana. I haven't seen any of the show though.

had the first two seasons, the Sony releases, as i had gotten them from my Sony rewards account, but then thy stopped, after season two in the US,, for those that have those first two seasons keep those disc, because each season here is only 2 disc each and the Sony release was 4 per season, so extras and such may be missing from the box set.

Bridget Loves Bernie the Complete Series

I am wading through this series now as I type this. It is a great-looking DVD, with the prints as good or better than when it was made back in 1972-73, but it is one painful watch, let me tell you. It is dated as all get-go. It also doesn't help that Baxter and Birney hang all over themselves on this show, which borders on overkill, and it is worse knowing how things turned out for both of them in real life.

This show, had it continued, would have done a lot of damage to CBS's future legendary Saturday night lineup. It was just not very good. After cancellation because of pressure from some religious groups, the time slot was first inherited by M*A*S*H*, a show that had flagging ratings until it moved into the slot and became a ratings powerhouse and TV classic, and ultimately by The Jeffersons, another television classic.

After cancellation because of pressure from some religious groups

I forget what religious groups brought to bear here that caused cancellation-- was it because the main characters were Jewish?

 

[Susan Nunes_329977]

Yes. Some Jewish groups got upset over the subject of intermarriage being treated lightly. The funny thing is, neither Baxter nor Birney was either Catholic or Jewish.

At the Wal-Mart in Simpsonville today: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Lionsgate all-in-one of the O-R 1987 animated series that is now just over 3 decades old!)

 

[Mike Frezon]

the O-R 1987 animated series that is now just over 3 decades old!

Wow. That's a scary thought.

But my kids are 28 & 32...so that's about right. It just doesn't seem right.

Cowabunga, dude.

Cowabunga, dude.

Perhaps I should have been a bit more clear-- last year was the 30th anniversary of the premiere of that 1987 animated series; I thought that's what I meant.

 

[Mike Frezon]

No I totally got that.

I just think its amazing that TMNT are already 30 years old! But, then, I'm sometimes amazed that my kids are that old, too!
