I went out to buy Season 3 today, and I'll be damned! The discs were faulty! This is expected from small cheap companies like Shanachie, but not Warner Brothers!

Some handler baffoon from the store you bought it from probably dropped it before you picked it up. Return it.

wow I hope that does not happen to me when I pick it up this afternoon

Munsters#1 · 07-26-2005, 10:39 AM

I immediately thought of that, but I lost the receipt. When I was leaving the store, the wind took it.

wow that just plains stinks. Seems like something that would happen to the castaways

Believe it or not, they did exchange it, but I'll be damned again, Disc 3 Side B still didn't work. I have a strange feeling they're all like that.

Hmm.. I'll have to check that side out. It better not be a screwup!

How was it?

Munsters #1 if you read on the little lable on the inside of disc three it says that on the other side that it is blank. The box is wrong, but the documentary is just on side A instead of B. I fell for the same thing. I also could not find the tabs that has thing you need to send in for the rebate but its inside the box

Well I'll be a monkey's uncle! Thanks GF! I'm watching the Bio right now, God are some of those people dumb!

BTW, check out my little GI ep guide.

the ep guide is one of the greatest Gilligan things I have ever seen. You did a great job on that and you picked the perfect picture to have. Thanks for doing such a great job. You always do such a great job with doing pictures.

Be lucky you all have your sets.

Wal-mart didn't have it!

Try Best Buy, TJMax or Target. They all have DVDs.

The qaulity is good. The only one grub I have is in the Totem Pole episode. In the scene where Ginger, Gilligan, and the Totem Pole are all in one shot, you can see somekind of brown/purple flickers at the top of the film.

Boy, do I feel like an ass. I was so impatient for it to work, I thought it was faulty so I took it back to the store.

I wanted to watch the Bio first, so I read the DVD cover to find it, and it said it was on Disc 3 Side B. When I popped it in, it wouldn't respond. I didn't realise it was moved to Side A.

If you hold disc 3 up to a strong light, and you have clear vision, you can see a bump in the the outer edge of the disc. Which means it is double sided, just nothing on Side B.
