As I mentioned, I will look into it. However, here are a couple questions that apply specifically to my experience with the show.

I originally watched Knight rider for the first time, when it was on Netflix quite a few years ago. Then I bought the DVDs that were put out by Universal, when Netflix lost the rights to the show. So how does the current set I have compare to those other two releases that I've seen, and had access to?

The other thing I mentioned is, I purchased the series through VUDU as well to have a digital version as well for portability. I love physical media but also in the case of TV shows, if I can buy a good digital copy to cut down on physical storage space for discs, I'm also willing to do that.

Awful and the vudu version is just the awful mill creek releases there scenes where music’s supposed to be playing and because it’s not the scene plays odd and the missing footage is a thing that shouldn’t be your missing part of the story. so yeah the turbine release is the way to go plus on season 4 your getting the stereo audio that wasn’t there for the episodes that had it. If price is i issue which believe me I get was until the cheaper version is made.

Well, my thoughts were, since more and more things are coming to UHD in time, I figured I'd wait for those, There have been plenty of examples of things in history getting a poor Blu-ray release, but getting a much better 4k release. So, if I'm going to buy another set, I'd much rather do that.

I hate to break it to you but this most likely won’t be one of them don’t get me wrong I’d love that but classic tv shows usually don’t warrant that kind of treatment.

I know, and I would have settled on DVD quality for Knight Rider as well. So seeing it on Blu-ray at ALL was a nice surprise. As far as the Turbine set, I've tried to look it up, and I just haven't found any US sites that have it for sale, and I don't want to deal with imports or anything. You think If I wait long enough, someone might just release a corrected Blu-ray set in the US directly?

Please Understand, it's not that I'm apposed to getting a corrected version. I just don't want to deal with imports or anything like that. I had considered that with the Bionic Woman when I wanted to see it, and it wasn't available here in the US.

I waited a few years, and it showed up at Walmart in a box set. So all I'm saying is, maybe if I put Knight Rider on the shelf for a while, a new release will come along that's better. Even if it's just another standard Blu-ray release, that will be easier for me to get a copy of.

There’s a way to import easy enough you don’t have to buy directly from and import site in every case you buy from a go between and then boom you got the set coming to you and plus it region free so no hassle there either.

Though I just recently bought the Mill Creek set I broke down and got the Turbine release. Its sitting at an airport right now. The audio is what finally got me to pull the trigger.
