I'm good with the Turbine set since it's amazing. At 97+ hours with the episodes and bonus features on 20 UHD's? Good luck with that compression Universal!

The Turbine set is also 20 discs plus a bonus one full of interviews. Assuming Universal uses BD100s, combined with the HVEC compression and I think they're in a much better spot.

I dint mind having both since it has all the movies and even the team knight rider.

Well, a surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one. Makes one wonder, if we'll get F'd in the A, if they release a 4K of "Columbo?"

[rebbirds]

Honestly...the Turbine set is enough and I think as far as it's an entertaining series (but not too much, the season with Rebecca Holden in my humble opinion is the best as overall quality of the stories), a 4k set is too much for me.

[Thunderleg]

Damn, the amount of times I almost weakened and bought the standard German set but managed to stop myself because it didn't have 2000 like the LE did

Jesus - I'd hate to have been the designed whom was lumbered with putting that Hoff pic on - it looks like the floating face from 3D favourite The Mask!

It's a mongrel of a photo to blend, but they could have at least tried to make it look as though his head was behind glass.

I hate to say it, but they probably made it stick out on purpose to emphasize Hoff for marketing. Just like all the floating heads covers we see so often.

Yeah, but did they have to go full Last Starfighter?

Indicative of final release quality after the AI has had its way with it?

It's the reflection of a giant Hasselhoff head floating in the sky.

My thoughts exactly. I have no interest in KR on 4K (I'm happy with the BD set) but I'm intrigued by the possibilities of other series hitting 4K, like The A Team or Miami Vice. I think we've now officially crossed a threshold of "anything is possible" on 4K with this announcement.

It's great that TV shows are now hitting 4K, I wasn't expecting this until at least another 2 or 3 years as there are still a ton of back catalogue films without a 4k release.

To me as long as the OG Negs or first gen IP still exists then ANYTHING is possible on 4K as long as someone stumps up the cash or are willing to do the restoration work.

I think the owners of the properties have realized the potentially unlimited lifespan of a property now that streaming creates the possiblity to sell the content over and over to different providers. So they're probably just working their way through the catalogs, while some fans are still alive and in their primes (hoping to create a fan revival).

I do think 4K is bumping up against "good enough forever." At some point, good enough is good enough. I think the upward limit is probably the size of film grain on real film (chemically developed).
