Fourth Season DVD ruined with edited episodes !

Post by Zypherix » Wed Aug 17, 2005 4:27 pm

It seems the greedy bastards at Sony decided to use syndicated prints for SEVEN (!) episodes on the fourth season set.

http://www.sitcomsonline.com/marriedwit ... eview.html

Oddly, "Rain Girl" is edited, yet unedited on the "Best of" set released earlier..

My guess is that they dont give a damn about "complete" seasons anymore, so many other DVDs (ALF s1, ALF s2, Diffrent Strokes s1, Roseanne s1 and more...) are released with syndicated prints that they figure that the audiences will buy any crap released.

I for one, will not buy a SINGLE dvd until they release the REAL "Complete" fourth season.

He was only asking if they are going to release Season 4 in Europe.
They just wrote back, "Yes, we are going to release Season 4".

He didn't ask about the syndication.
I did twice...

2-3 minutes PER episode yes.
So they are 20-21 minutes each instead of 22-24 minutes.

Thats a total of 21 minutes cut out from the DVD.. almost one ENTIRE episode.

That's what I asked them.

I hope that they have copies of the original us-mastertapes and take them just adding the other language layers over it.
