The Fugitive: Complete Series UK release - Blu-ray Forum

A long shot but does anyone have the UK release of The Fugitive: Complete Series and are you able to confirm that there are no replaced music issues with it?

It's this release from MediumRare:
32 discs just like the US version.

One review mentions original sound, another says some music has been replaced for seasons 2 and 3.

Clear as mud isn’t it!

Did you ever buy this after?from what im reading they all say this has all the right music.

No, I haven't bought it yet.

Was considering getting the American release, but I want to make sure it's the release with the original music intact. I've looked at some customer reviews on Amazon.com, and they say there were a few releases. I know about the music replacements on some of the earlier American releases.

I have the UK complete season release.

I am most way through season 2 (CBS Justice are running episodes daily and are now ahead of me).

I think the versions on my set are possibly the same versions being shown on CBS Justice.

I can tell you that they dont have the terrible replacement music from the original US releases.

None of the music stands out as being out of place.

If anyone knows an episode which contains different music in different versions, please post which episode and where the music sits in the episode in this thread and I'll try to check with my completely untrained ear...

And an off-topic aside, Sony Channel in UK are showing Crazy Like A Fox from the Pilot episode onwards Monday 16 November then every day at 4pm. That show featured the legendary Jack Warden.

I haven't seen the show since the first UK broadcast in 1984/85!!! I hope it has aged ok.

Didn't know about this, so many thanks for sharing this TV listings info. Crazy Like a Fox, as far as I'm aware, hasn't had a physical media release (both the series and the reunion TV film Still Crazy Like a Fox. I remember very little from when the series was originally shown.

That's all I'll say, as it's off-topic (but if you wish to start a thread for the series in the Wishlists sub-forum, then please do).

The second season reaches the halfway point tomorrow (episode eleven). I'm not sure what's going on after that. The Sky TV listings still have it as the first season being shown by Sony Channel UK. But there were only thirteen episodes in the first season (twenty-two episodes in the second and final season). The Sky listings say Sony Channel UK are going back to the pilot episode on Friday.

The reunion TV film Still Crazy Like a Fox is being shown on Sony Channel UK on Monday 28th December at 7 pm.
