The Twilight Zone (Which version?)

[jee]

Greetings folks,

I am torn on which one of the following I should purchase (yes I have region free equipment)

https://www.amazon.com/The-Twilight-...=ATVPDKIKX0DER (24 Discs)
or
https://www.amazon.de/-/en/Klugman-W...0&s=dvd&sr=1-2 (30 Discs)

Both appear to have highly praised remasters, and while the German release will obviously have some non english friendly bonus features, most should at least have english audio as it was produced by native english speakers.

Price differences are not significant enough to sway my decision on this and the rerelease date of the american version (re-release, as this exact set was released some years back) is not far enough to have any impact on my decision either. Anyone watched content from either of these releases? Would appreciate any information you can offer.

Thanks

As far as I understand, the blu-ray transfers are identical on all releases worldwide. They look and sound amazing, and there are even more extras in the blu-ray sets than their same remastered DVD counterpart sets. I have the UK blu-ray set and I've read elsewhere that they are identical to both the US & Australian versions.

The six extra discs on the German release has me curious

Perhaps it could just be that the episodes are spread out further, as in less episodes per disc? Hard to find any info on it, even at the DVD Compare site.

Well you got me curious too. I clicked through the various German releases of the individual Seasons sets and noticed on this site that most indicate Six-disc set (5 BD-50, 1 DVD). But what’s on the DVD?
Example:


I tried viewing the complete series and individual sets on Amazon DE and using English translation to read the descriptions and reviews, but I found nothing more to explain it. Hmm.

EDIT: You could compare each Season collection on DVDCompare. Here's Season 1, and at a glance it looks to me that the content is the same, but I haven't gone extra by extra yet. Also, no mention of 1 disc being a DVD. Of course DVDCompare doesn't always get it right either. Further hmm.

Apropos of nothing, learning of the DVDCompare website via your post made my day. Cheers!

I think the most complete version is the 60th anniversary edition from the United Kingdom, I got It in 2019.

Is there anything besides "The Complete"? What could be in it? Interviews? Gag reels? This Blu-ray set is absolutely awesome! The quality is a 10.
