Mill Creek season 8 release - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

BeatleMoe · 03-20-2013, 04:49 PM

Has anyone gotten their copy of season 8 yet? Is it the same edits as the Starz release, or did they release the original broadcast episodes?

I haven't seen it but how did this show end up in Mill Creek territory? I still have a hard time processing the fact that this $1 DVD company that originally couldn't even settle on a name (Treeline Films, then Dollar Entertainment, I think there was a 3rd name before MC?) is becoming somewhat legitimate.

I've been wondering if Mill Creek's season 8 release is edited, too.

Does it have the Patty Duke spoof?

Does it have David singing "When You Wish Upon a Star"?

Does it have the original tag ending for the gay wedding episode?

Does it have the original "Wish Upon a Star" playing as the Conners are running through Disney World?

And I could care less how many names Mill Creek has had, as long as they are releasing the uncut episodes of "Roseanne" at a cheap price.

Yeah, I want the "Idenitical Beckys", (The Patty Duke Show spoof), that was classic!

A user on amazon.com claims the edits from the earlier s8 release are still present, and the episodes are on fewer discs.

Are you sure you're not reading the Anchor Bay reviews? Amazon never differentiates between old and new releases in their reviews section.

I can read... so yes. This is just one user's comments, so better wait for a proper dvd review.

I wasn't insinuating that you were illiterate.

I just meant that in the past I myself have gotten mixed up reading reviews by users on Amazon's older products when a new release of the same product came out.

I didn't mean to offend you.

No Patty Duke Show tribute tag. No sale.

I'll just keep my original season 8 set from Starz/Anchor Bay & wait to see if Season 9 Mill Creek has extra footage added.

I am curious, when Dan says "You know, if you think about this was really the 'Friends' of the 80's." and you hear the Facts of Life theme on the TV. Did they put that theme back in or is it the same as the previous Season 8 release?

McGillicuddy · 11-21-2013, 12:49 AM

Millcreek made such a deal about season 1 being un-cut, but seasons 8&9 are still edited.

I had only heard that Season 1 and 8 were edited, I didn't know that Season 9 was as well.

McGillicuddy · 12-05-2013, 04:27 PM

I believe the 2 "Disney World" episodes, are un-cut. I know "When You Wish Upon A Star" is playing when they first run into the park, in slow motion.

I don't know how it was on the Anchor Bay release.

Looks like buying season 1 & 8 of Mill Creek versions are the way to go.

I was hoping for some unedited episodes on season 9.
