does anyone know where i would be able to get the series from, when it comes out in NZ?

Guys,

Not sure of the above answer to the question. I was just wondering how many of you plan to get the Season 1 DVD? For those that do:

1.) Are you getting it right when it comes out?

2.) Are you going to wait for a price drop or review of the disks?

3) Are you going to wait for subsequent seasons on DVD, before purchasing them?

Although I have waited for YEARS to see the show uncut. I think Season 1 is the weakest of the series. However, there are some stand-out classics like:

"Sorry Right Number"

"54-40 and Fight"

"Vote For Brady"

"Is There A Doctor in the House?"

"The Hero"

But the majority of the episodes don't have the sheer greatness to them until Reed started influencing the scripts in Season 2. The above are my favorite episodes from Season 1. Do you think it's worth the $30?

Now, when we get to Season 2, things start really picking up! Just about all of the episodes of Season 3 (Except "Now A Word From Our Sponser"....yuck!) are gems! Same thing with Season 4!

Season 5 starts out great, but flops toward the middle and end!

Does anyone know if the episodes are going to be in airdate order or production order?

falc04 · 02-23-2005, 10:16 AM

I've had it on pre-order since the day Amazon listed it. As for a review, the two I've read give it a BIG thumbs up! Here's one of them:

And as for the order they are in, it appears they are being shown in original air date order. Paramount tends to release their TV box sets like this.

Oh great! Now I'm disappointed. Hopefully this will be the only flaw with the set. I had my hopes up because early information released questioned the order. Especially since, for example, episode 8 aired as the next to the last episode of the season.

So now, comes the important question. TV Land has a screwed up order for airing the episodes Law & Disorder which they air as a third season episode and the episodes Miss Popularity airs before The Elopement and in airdate order they should be switched around. Will Paramount release the episodes in this messed up order that TV Land airs them in. I find it hard to believe that they would, but, you never know.

Why can't all companies just forget airdate order and do it the right way, like Columbia Tristar/Sony does. Geez!

Guys,

I've decided to get Season 1!!!! If you look around, you should be able to get it for less than $30!

Jack

falc04 · 02-24-2005, 01:07 PM

Target will have it on sale for $17.99 next week, and Best Buy will have it for $19.99. You may just want to wait till it's released (March 1st), and take a ride to one of these stores......

**EDIT ==> My mistake of the prices...Best Buy has it for $27.99, and Taget has it for $29.99. Sorry about the confusion...

SKay · 02-24-2005, 04:21 PM

Thanks for the info falc04. I had been on the list to be notified when it came out, but when I got my notification from Amazon, I decided to wait. We have all the episodes except 1 on tape, but I'm looking forward to seeing the scenes that had been cut. I may go out to Target next week!

OK, I clicked on the link and read the description. Question: Under "The Quality," what are they saying in regards to the MacGyver DVDs? What's the story behind MacGyver?

Hi James,

I think your at the wrong forum. This is a Brady Bunch, NOT MacGyver forum.

Sincerely,

Jack

I still haven't bought the dvd yet, but I"m wondering if there's any extra features on it at all. Even if there isn't I'm still going to get it!
