Great Shows, Cumbersome Package
|
| I'd give this set five stars if it had been packaged properly. There's no need to waste words here about how terrific these historical TV shows are, and I appreciate the efforts that went into making the entire series available in such stunning transfers on DVD. However, now that all of the shows have been restored, they ought to reconfigure this set (as has already been done with volume one of the complete collection). As cute an idea as the "trunk" package may seem, it is unwieldy and redundant in its contents. As at least one disc in the set demonstrates, four full episodes can easily be put on a single two-sided disc. So why is this set bulging with seven discs? Two discs contain three episodes each; another contains two; and another disc contains only one episode (The Christmas show). Even more wasteful, one disc is devoted to highlights of Judy with famous guests, and another contains a mere 17 minutes of music--four "Songs for America" culled from various shows. If a person is collecting the entire series (and you wouldn't be buying this package if you weren't), there is no need for separate "highlights" discs. Let's hope they get around to putting these legendary programs in a sensible format as they already have for volume 1, which originally also came in the bulky "trunk" format. Serious collectors, which such sets are obviously aimed at, don't have extra shelf space to waste on useless "extras." |
