This and Knight Rider were my favourite shows growing up good news.

Indiana Jones · 10-12-2016, 04:10 PM

With 37 discs the RRP has got to be pushing £250

Jompa · 10-12-2016, 07:47 PM

Saw season 2 a few days ago. Fun and entertaining series. I will buy it in January.

Temujen1975 · 10-12-2016, 10:01 PM

Wow, I never expected this to be released on Blu-ray. This gives me hope that we'll see MASH on Blu-ray one day.

SymbioticFunction · 10-12-2016, 11:51 PM

37 discs!!

PowellPressburger · 10-12-2016, 11:59 PM

I would be very interested in this set as long as we get original audio released in HD audio 2.0.

One of the few 80's shows I would buy on BD. Hope Mill Creek do it in the US, but if they never do I will import this.

revgen · 10-13-2016, 02:16 AM

I want to buy this. Hopefully, I can afford it.

hedliniv · 10-13-2016, 03:28 AM

I hope this is region free as Mill Creek does not have english subtitles on their release so I can't buy the US version on Knight Rider

Sad when UV copy has more features than a blu-ray release...

Fabulous RB lock almost certainly as required by the rights holders they licence from, in this case Universal.

BTW Fabulous don't include subtitles either.

I wonder if Mill Creek is planning on doing the US release? Not sure I can afford the Fabulous version.

The Fabulous Films logo is unskippable and in a PAL video format. IE: if you attempt to play their discs on a normal US player they'll likely freeze before they ever get to the main menu regardless of region. Even if the set says A/B/C on the back cover I'd recommend not buying it.

Probably depends on how well Miami Vice and Knight Rider sell. If they got those from Universal I am sure they could get Magnum, Columbo, Quantum Leap and others.

blahsi · 10-13-2016, 03:57 PM

I'll have to keep an eye on this. Magnum is one of my mom's favorite series ever. Fingers crossed it's region free!

Bluyoda · 11-07-2016, 11:04 AM

Are the episodes 20ish or 40ish minutes long?

Jompa · 11-07-2016, 11:12 AM

48 to 49 minutes long.
