Monday, November 3, 2003 (On Sale Nov. 11)
I have had the pleasure to watch the DVD already for
review. It is excellent and the quality of the
episodes amazes me. Fans have been complaining for
years about the edits the reruns have on TV, now the
complaining will stop! As each episode will be
unedited. Season 1 had only six episodes, and run
about 24-25 minutes per episode. Only one episode has
a tag scene in season one ("Roper's Niece"), but when
season two comes out, that will be a different story.
In this DVD, we have of course, the six episodes,
along with an "In Memory of John" feature, and a sneak
peek at "Season Two." The "In Memory of John" feature
also has a nice clip from the charity John was so
involved with, UCP. Portions of the money from the
sales will go to that charity. So it will be for a
good cause. All fans should DEFINITELY buy season one
in tribute to John and also, so we can eventually get
all eight seasons on DVD (yes, that means unedited!).
Hopefully the DVD's sell out fast and they realize
that they made the right decision on making seasonal
DVD's for Three's Company. Chris Mann was involved in
this project as well, so for sure all fans will be
pleased, as his judgment is the best. Though, this
DVD was supposed to come put in early 2004, I was
still impressed on how well it was made. The title
shot and menu screen is amazing--everyone will love
it. All the episodes have a synopsis before you watch
an episode. All the extras that were planned for this
season, will be inserted in the season two DVD, which
will now come out it in early 2004 (Spring or so).
Also a more in depth tribute to John Ritter will be in
that DVD. Each season will get better and better. If
you have not ordered yet, it's not too late. You can
click on one of the links above and buy a copy (or
two!). So, please everyone buy it, so we can get all
eight seasons released.
