Sony NewsRadio DVD vs Mill Creek DVD Release - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I remember watching NewsRadio and enjoying when it originally aired, but I haven't seen it again since then. I have been thinking about purchasing the NewsRadio seasons 1 & 2 DVD and I'm noticing that they've been released by both Sony and Mill Creek. The thing is, according to the reviews that I see on Amazon some people say that the video quality of the Sony release is not very good, but one person says to stay away from the Mill Creek release entirely. I'm confused! Which one would people here recommend I buy?

I recommend the Sony sets. If you buy the complete series box set, yeah, it's packaged poorly, but if you buy the seasons individually, that's the way to go. The Sony sets have commentary from cast, crew and even former NBC President Warren Littlefield! It's got gag reels and behind the scenes featurettes. On the other hand, the Mill Creek ones have zero bonus features and are even missing an episode! "The Injury" is listed but for some reason isn't actually included (unless they've fixed this by now).

Go with the Sony sets!

Ok, thanks! From what I've been reading, the Sony sets are definitely the way to go!
