I got test discs for "TCFC" a few weeks back, and the episodes seemed edited at around 22 minutes. Hopefully the final product doesn't have edited episodes. Our reviewer for this set will get the final product very soon, and we shall see.

Yeah that's what I was thinking, I remember watching TCFC in the original run, and it's a good show, I haven't seen it since it went off the air, probably that way with alot of people close to my age that have seen it, they want to see it again, they figure TC can wait cause it will probably always be readily available in syndication and on DVD

Pav, you are breaking my heart here.

I want to say "better than nothing" but then again it ticks me off- how hard is it to access the uncut version as opposed to the cut one?

Apparently a lot of A-holes are in charge of transfering our favorite shows to dvd.

How the hell did they get this job?

Oh gosh I hope they're uncut, I hate that.

Pavan · 10-28-2004, 06:05 PM

If the final product is edited, then I'm assuming they used the syndication prints because the show did air in first run syndication for a season or two towards the end of the show's run. So, maybe they didn't use the unedited ABC version for season one.

TC zoomed past TCFC really fast

Ohhhhhh, I so hope they're uncut

The Looney Tunes Golden Collection, Volume 2.

Unfortunately, I won't be able to get it next Tuesday. I don't have much money and there are a lot of DVDs that are must-haves for me compared to it (Friends: Season 8, Seinfeld), so I'll probably have to ask for it for Christmas.

Rhino has said the final product of Too Close... will consist of:

- 19 original uncut episodes -- over seven hours of entertainment!
- Exclusive special features include cast member commentary and photo gallery.
- Sitcoms on DVD generate huge retail sales!
- National TV support on TV Land and National Cable, plus extensive national print campaign.
- Color/approximately 455 minutes.

It clearly says uncut, so hopefully they are right about that. Because the test discs seemed edited because the episodes were 22 minutes. Also, the test discs I have, have no special features...

Yay!

Maybe what they sent you wasn't complete?

That's right, they were test discs, not official product.

Thanks.

Both Three's Company and Pee Wee's Playhouse are releases I have to have as soon as they come out. Those are two of my all-time favorite shows.
