The Wild Wild West: The Night of the Big Blackmail Season 4 premiere Excellent episode! Sometimes I'll pop one of these in and question why I like the show, and then I'll throw on one like this and remember. For an episode so late in the run, it's a sterling example of the appeal of this...

Oh if you wanna include animation, the 1967 is my go-to. Stories were adapted from the Lee/Kirby books (which were all they had at the time), albeit simplified. The characters were spot on, although Sue was - as in the books - something of a "damsel" which doesn't help those stories in...

Yeah, Doom was in both Tim Story films. Galactus was really just talked about until the end (where he appeared in the form of a cloud), but the Silver Surfer was the main "villain" - I use quotes because he was really more of a "crisis" character and not a villain. Hence Doom. Rise of the Silver...

The series was sold to syndication. It is still considered "in syndication." What would you call it then? Also...

This dropped down to $33 on Amazon so, music edits and all, I went for the upgrade.

Underrated film with a great period soundtrack.

Usually when a TV series is released to tie in with a feature film version, it's timed so they both feed off each other. To enhance the interest in the source material while trying to interest fans in the remake. If there were plans to release The Fall Guy TV series, not only would we have...

You may have a point about the music rights, but at the same time, they also replaced music that belonged to them. It was a weird situation that only impacted seasons 2 and 3 for the most part. As for the cleanup of the prints, that's done. They wouldn't have to redo it for HD. They did the...

Well literally all that have to do is take the prints used for the current DVDs and release them in HD. There's no further work to. Just take from the right files.

If they do get around to them (so far I've heard nothing), they certainly would be single sided. I think we're long past the double sided trend. My worry is that Mill Creek will cram 6 episodes or more on each disc.

When I was a kid, if it wasn't a fast paced adventure or a comedy, I wasn't interested. Mission: Impossible was neither. I didn't realize how good this should was until, well, the 80's.

Meh, it still applies. ME-TV is a network but not one of the networks. The Dick Van Dyke Show ended network production decades ago and the syndication package (a term still in use) was eventually sold to ME-TV for broadcast until those rights end (whenever they decide it's no longer profitable)...

I am really amazed at how great these HD prints are. I never got the UK releases, so all I've had are the old A&E DVDs. Night and day. My only regret is that they didn't give an option to play each of the first year Emma episodes with the US Chessboard opening at the start of the episodes. That...

From what I understand, Sony is merely a distribution arm for Disney releases going forward and that Disney owned catalog titles from the various studios would be put out by Mill Creek in the same formats they were in previously. DVD to DVD, Blu Ray to Blu Ray. No upgrades to HD or restorations...

Everyone has their favorite Batman voice. Kevin Conroy gets a lot of love and Adam West's forays into Batimated adventures (like this release and the Super Powers show) are fairly well celebrated. But my guy growing up was Olan Soule. He did the original Filmation series and since Filmation used...
