Love that Night Rider Artwork!! Community, keep hearing that show come up, one day we will get it and watch it, we have a lot of movies to get to watch, haha
Hi Heath. Great video on Mill Creek TV season releases. I am still tempted to pick up the King of Queens set but haven’t as of yet. Rockford Files looks great too.
Just got the blu ray complete series box set of That 70s Show in the mail yesterday,got it to replace my well loved DVD complete series set of this comedic gold. One of my favourite shows of all time. Grew up watching it when it originally aired on Fox and with my DVD set I replaced to blu ray I’ve done countless rewatches of the entire series,so happy to have upgraded the series to blu ray,definitely one series deserving of the blu ray treatment,plus 480p dvds being upgraded to 1080p blu rays you can’t go wrong. Thank you for reading this and I love your videos man.
It's a great set, and those episodes look SO MUCH better on Blu-ray than they do on DVD. Sometimes I'll pass That '70s Show when I'm scrolling through the TV channels, and it always looks like garbage in syndication. Blu-ray has given them eternal life, and they look like they were shot yesterday. Glad you grabbed it!
We have a label in the U.K called Fabulous that has released some of these as well as The A Team, Magnum and Battlestar Galactica, I sometimes wonder if its the same company as Mill Creek as the do release a lot of the same stuff, great video.
Miami Vice was my jam back in the 80s and my dad and I used to watch the Rockford files together. Thinking about it I couldn't have been more than 10. He used to love it.
Whoa, look at that Blu-ray collection! I love the Blu-Ray of shows originally not broadcast in HD, but can be remastered since filmed in 35 mm. Unlike many, I do like if the matting can enable 16x9 such as Seinfeld and early years of "King of Queens." You probably know this already, but you can remaster film but not videotape; e.g. "All in the Family." With 35 mm can actually remaster in 4k which Japan has done with "Columbo" and "Bewitched" for streaming. Watched every episode of Columbo on DVD or Hallmark in HD (although the channel cuts out about ten minutes). Would buy on Blu-Ray but close to $400 (need to get from Japan).
It's so sad that the rest of the world is denied most of these region A blu-ray releases. As a crazy Mann-fan, I'd kill for an HD version of "Miami Vice", but there doesn't seem to be a label in UK/Europe that properly takes care of this. Maybe one day Mill Creek will expand, that's at least my dream. I almost had tears in my eyes, when 2 months ago, I walked into a physical store in Germany and bought myself a physical copy of a Criterion Collection blu-ray disc. :D There's still hope for collectors, there's still hope...
Some of them (not Miami Vice) are region free and should be able to be imported through companies that ship internationally. You can check Blu-ray dot com for region coding to see what shows others have had luck with. Off the top of my head, I know Community is region free.
I used to own the individual season DVD releases for the first season of Knight Rider and Miami Vice, though I never got around to watching the Miami Vice set. I also have the Mill Creek season 1 DVD release for That '70s Show, which is really cool. I've never seen the other shows you presented here, except for Community, because it's on Netflix and I've been binging it for a little over two weeks now. Such a good show.
I've never seen the show, but it looks so good, I can't wait to check it out. I'm really excited about it, and we should have a first look as soon as they ship from the factory!
Sweet collection Heath, I need that airwolf set! I believe they put episodes 1 and 2 and released it as Airwolf the movie over here! Still have my VHS tape of that!
I would have loved to have seen Airwolf in a theater! I miss than phenomenon, when TV show pilots got packaged for theatrical distribution. Buck Rogers in the 25th Century, Battlestar Galactica, and so many more shows did this. Even She-Ra!
I'm wanting to get the Knight Rider set to replace my DVDs since a couple of the seasons I have are on double sided DVDs, and I've never been a fan of those.
Have or planning to acquire “Columbo” on Blu-Ray? Expensive, but get in essence 69 movies. Waiting for price to go down, but appears lately, perhaps because of COVID-19 and streaming battles; e.g., “Mad Men,” lot of series going up in price.
When I was young I spent a lot of Friday nights at my Grandmother's house. And she loved Rockford. Between watching episodes of Rockford Files, and staying up late to watch Johnny Carson, I learned a lot at a young age.
I have the Mill Creek dvd set for Sliders. It’s great to get all the episodes in one pack but that’s pretty much all you get is the episodes. I can see that for some people that’s enough but I like extras like bloopers.
Heath I remembering you saying a tv series losses it's appeal around season 4, I love The King of Queens, but I feel that somewhat pertains to this show. Are you rewatching some of these shows during the stay at home?
Yes, and I think King of Queens absolutely fits into my theory. Doesn't mean that I don't still like it, but it's in season five that the show falls into routine and formula. After four seasons, they're just trying to find things for the characters to do. We made it up to season 7 in the new box set before deciding we need to take a break.
Sundance Channel just added Gomer Pyle in HD to its channel, with 18-20 episodes back to back every Wednesday early a.m. And it looks fantastic! Perhaps the best I have seen of a classic TV program in HD. A scan of the channel shows it also has Hogan's Heroes in HD as well as Andy Griffith. Hopefully this portends a release of Gomer Pyle on Blu-Ray! Another note that Peacock showing every episode of Columbo in HD, with the latter versions all in 16x9!
Dont give up hope. Now that COMMUNITY is on Netflix it will have many new fans that have never seen it. People will also recognize where some of these now famous people started their mainstream careers. I saw it was a top show a few days ago. We may get that movie. #sixseasonsandamovie
Good stuff, thanks! I keep hoping against hope NBC's "Ed" (Tom Cavanagh, Julie Bowen) will get a Blu-ray release from an outfit like Mill Creek. I think ED has music rights issues or something because it's never even received a DVD release. Such a great show.
I don’t necessarily buy for packaging but hey if they make it nice it’s certainly a bonus. Also if it comes out in a basic case and a nicer package and the price difference doesn’t destroy my wallet hey I’ll buy the pretty box!
I was thinking about what you said in live stream that you dont have time to sit and watch something because you are backed up with stuff you have to review ,so do you just buy these for collecting and probably never watch them ?
I find this comment a bit befuddling, especially with our Review-Paloozas, which show just how many titles we cover in a matter days or weeks. Not watching stuff? I don’t recall saying I don’t have time to watch anything. That’s all I do, watch things. All of these shows in this video have been watched. Many of them in their entirety. Perhaps it was a statement about Netflix, or “trying to find something to watch.”
@@CerealAtMidnight some one asked you what you watch to relax and you said you have piles of stuff that was sent to you for reviews. So you have no time to pick out something random not verbadem but that's all I'll see if I can find it not hating just curious I love your collection and hope that you would be able to enjoy it
Sorry, Jay. Sounds like I'm sending mixed signals. The stack of review materials is huge, but I also suppose that I have gotten used to fielding the question of "hey, have you watched such and such yet" by reminding people how serious the back-log is so they don't expect reviews overnight. The truth is, I don't buy anything if I'm not going to watch it, and I am happy to have seen the shows in this video. I haven't finished every single one of them, but I have finished quite a few of them. 30 Rock just came in a week ago as of my writing this, and we're already about to start season 3. I should also say, in the pursuit of full disclosure, quite a few of the sets in this video were sent by Mill Creek for reviews, so we made them a top priority.
@@CerealAtMidnight thank you for explaining sorry miss understood , I was also gonna ask if you know any sites that have or if sea wolf with Charles Bronson was ever released on dvd
I think the Bronson version of The Sea Wolf only ever got a German dvd release and is out of print. It would be a good one for someone to rescue and release.
Crazy, right? Just another example of how physical media wins over streaming every single time. It's the only way to be sure we have access to the stuff we want to watch without risk of episodes being removed or altered. I'm glad Mill Creek Entertainment was able to get this show out on Blu-ray, and I hope that it's a big seller for them, and continues to be into the future as they are able to get new stock into stores.
@@CerealAtMidnight I wonder if the streamed episodes that were purchased were removed? That would not be a good precedent; e.g. losing licensing rights and losing purchased streaming.
@@CerealAtMidnight Best of both worlds in Blu-Ray plus digital HD like "The Big Bang Theory." I recently purchased Blu-Ray of "The Sopranos" and "Mad Men," and the digital code worked for both although expired.
Love community but here in the UK we have to make do with DVD. Packaging isn't great sadly either as it is in cardboard wallets the discs slide in. Many of my discs are scratched and so far one is unplayable. Shame as I love this show.
I have the Miami Vice Blu-Ray set and it looks (and sounds) so good, especially after they fixed the Dolby 5.1 Surround issues with a couple of the episodes in the first season. I only wish they’d put it out with special features. (And hey Mill Creek if you’re reading this, I would definitely like to see The Lone Ranger, The Green Hornet, and Lassie get complete series sets as part of your deal with NBC Universal/Dreamworks Classics!!)
Great suggestions! Do we know if Lone Ranger, Green Hornet, and Lassie have HD masters already? Green Hornet seems like a no-brainer, especially with Bruce Lee about to get a Criterion Collection push this summer, but I'm not familiar with if that show has ever had an official studio release.
Cereal At Midnight Of all of them, my best guess is Lone Ranger has the best shot of having already had HD masters because they had that “coffee table book” boxed set with the complete original series of The Lone Ranger (ie all the Clayton Moore episodes) out right around when the last movie was either in theaters or about to be in theaters. And my guess is they should have at least done something with those masters at that time, but that’s the only one I know of that would potentially have HD masters. I don’t even know if they know what they have at Comcast/NBC Universal in terms of that Classic Media goldmine...
I love Mill Creek for the price point, but the packaging on these sets needs a supreme upgrade. They fall apart just from shelf life, side from that I do love my Mill Creek collection
You’re talking about Blu-rays? That’s not been my experience at all. Community is the only one that’s taken any abuse, and that happened by the postal service. I find the Blu-Ray sets to be substantially more durable and better packaged than their TV show DVDs, which are bargain sets. Some of the sets in this video are several years old and you can see how they’ve held up.
@@CerealAtMidnight Ah yes I am talking about their DVD sets. I just figured the packaging was the same. Some of their DVD sets have yet to hit blu ray like Highway to Heaven.
Me too! The HD masters exist, and are on Blu-ray in other regions, so it's just a matter of someone picking up the North America license and doing it. I'd buy it day one! I wonder if the size of the series has prevented that so far. It's a big series. 8 seasons, which I think makes it longer than any drama Mill Creek Entertainment have ever released.
Mill Creek just released Magnum, P.I. on Blu-Ray recently with some extras. The DVD set however, is a Wal-Mart exclusive so, you can only find it in their stores and online with the same extras.
I’d like to get some of those sets but I refuse to order them online. I’m sick and tired of getting box sets coming with dinged up boxes. Too many companies do not take any care in shipping out products. So unless I can find these sets in a Target, Best Buy or Walmart, I’m not getting them. I’ll just stick with the DVDs I have.
It's a fantastic show, so smart and funny, and the Blu-rays are LOADED. Just about every pre-existing bonus feature from the DVDs has been carried over. It's crazy how much stuff is on the discs. I'm glad to see Mill Creek Entertainment now licensing some bonus features from the parent companies of the products they release.
I'm hearing impaired and rely on subtitles or closed captions when watching TV, or DVDs/blurays, and traditionally Mill Creek's releases don't include either. I have several of Mill Creek's TV show DVD sets and the audio was crisp enough on those releases so that I could still mostly follow the dialog even without subtitles. 'Quantum Leap' was one of my favourite shows when I was younger and when the bluray was released I jumped at buying the collection despite knowing it didn't have subtitles because I was confident I'd still be able to make out the dialog. Boy, was I wrong. I realize Mill Creek is reliant on the video and audio masters the studios provide them with, but the audio on the 'Quantum Leap' bluray collection is so poor with all dialog washed out, I simply cannot hear anything being said. I watched the first few episodes in the collection when I got the set, but might as well have been watching silent films since I couldn't make anything out. Because of that I put the set away and haven't finished it, although I plan to try to get through it eventually, even if I'm not in now rush to do so. Again, I understand that Mill Creek is reliant on the elements they're provided with, but it just galls me that in 2020 (or 2017 when the set was released) the studios and DVD/bluray companies are fine with ignoring the significant portion of the audience that's deaf or hard of hearing. It wouldn't take that much space on a bluray disc to put some subtitle tracks.
Have you expressed this to the companies themselves? Maybe if enough people speak up for subtitles, that will go a long way. Also, for what it’s worth, 30 Rock is the newest set (just released yesterday) and it had subtitles.
@@CerealAtMidnight I've only done that once and never got a reply (it was to Warner Bros when they inexplicably released one of the last Harry Potter films on DVD without subtitles or captions). As for Mill Creek, I looked up the set on Blu-ray.com when I first heard about it and saw it listed subtitles (the Charlie's Angels collection too) so I'm glad to see they're finally adding them to their more recent releases. Both sets are now on my want list for that reason.
The Miami Vice set isn't great at all first when it came out there was problem with like 4 disc and the picture and audio aren't great either, I still kept my NBC DVD which I think are still the best way to watch the show. The Knight Rider picture quality is amazing compared to the Miami Vice. Obviously Mill Creek whole thing is to have shows that are hard to find shows like Nash Bridges, Airwolf, Ultraman.... on the cheap I do support them but do your research there might be a better alternative. I have all there ultraman sets I think it's there best releases till this date.
The Miami Vice audio issues were resolved mere weeks after the set was released years back, and only affected those who bought the box when it was brand new (like me). Replacement discs were issued almost immediately. I think the picture for Miami Vice looks really good, and miles better than the DVD, which can't handle all that natural film grain. People complain about how grainy and harsh Miami Vice looks, but that's exactly how it was shot and what it's supposed to look like. Grain is inherent in film, and I would prefer it not to be digitally scrubbed away or frozen with DNR. We can agree to disagree about the video quality of the Blu-rays, but I don't see how anyone would recommend 20+ year old technology over a nice, HD Blu-ray set that's been remastered from the original film source. If those DVDs make you happy, that's cool, but I think the Blu-rays are way more cinematic.
I got a Mill Creek set for 'Good Times' ...very disappointed with it. I'm going to buy a disc case for the 11 disc because they are not staying in those scratch 'doomed' cardboard sleeves. SMH LOL
@@CerealAtMidnight Only way to go if you like disc not getting scratched lol! I knew that going in, but my problem is there is no episode booklet and the way they label the disc is confusing too ...i had to re-arrange them to look a little more uniformed in order !
I’d like to see them put out more classic shows on blu-ray. I just don’t have much interest in stuff like Mindy Project, King of Queens, or 30-Rock (yuck).
What classic shows would you like to see them put out? And maybe more importantly, what classic TV shows could they put out that you think would have successful sales numbers? They did, after all, just release Charlie's Angels on Blu-ray, which was a HUGE classic TV release. I have no inside knowledge, just my own personal perspective from seeing all the comments and engagement over certain releases, but I suspect 30 Rock and King of Queens sell ten times more sets than Airwolf. From a business point of view, new shows are way more financially profitable than niche shows, and shows like 30 Rock are still being used as pawns in the streaming wars, so their value is huge. I'm still hoping that Mill Creek Entertainment licenses Magnum P.I., The A-Team, and Baywatch.
Cereal At Midnight I would love to see The A-Team, Night Court, Perfect Strangers, Cheers, Unsolved Mysteries, Werewolf (doubtful on that one), Monsters, Tales From the Darkside, Starsky & Hutch, Welcome Back Kotter, Sledgehammer, The Greatest American Hero, and many other classic shows on blu-ray. I honestly have no idea how they would sell. As for newer shows, I would really like Due South to be on blu-ray. It’s all just down to personal preferences. If someone enjoys things like Mindy Project, King of Queens, & 30 Rock, I am happy for them that they have accessible releases. But to me, Mindy Project & King of Queens were middle of the road, so-so, disposable shows, and I never liked 30-Rock. Oddly enough, even though I don’t find Tina Fey funny, I did enjoy Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt that she produced and will likely look into that blu-ray release eventually.
Love that Night Rider Artwork!! Community, keep hearing that show come up, one day we will get it and watch it, we have a lot of movies to get to watch, haha

You’re talking about Blu-rays? That’s not been my experience at all. Community is the only one that’s taken any abuse, and that happened by the postal service. I find the Blu-Ray sets to be substantially more durable and better packaged than their TV show DVDs, which are bargain sets. Some of the sets in this video are several years old and you can see how they’ve held up.
@@CerealAtMidnight Amen heath! Thats my only problem with them so far the TV shows are horrid for there packaging! Dvd's i'm talking.
@@CerealAtMidnight Ah yes I am talking about their DVD sets. I just figured the packaging was the same. Some of their DVD sets have yet to hit blu ray like Highway to Heaven.
I wish Mill Creek would put out Magnum PI on Blu Ray. Hopefully one day.
Me too! The HD masters exist, and are on Blu-ray in other regions, so it's just a matter of someone picking up the North America license and doing it. I'd buy it day one! I wonder if the size of the series has prevented that so far. It's a big series. 8 seasons, which I think makes it longer than any drama Mill Creek Entertainment have ever released.
Mill Creek just released Magnum, P.I. on Blu-Ray recently with some extras. The DVD set however, is a Wal-Mart exclusive so, you can only find it in their stores and online with the same extras.
I’d like to get some of those sets but I refuse to order them online. I’m sick and tired of getting box sets coming with dinged up boxes. Too many companies do not take any care in shipping out products. So unless I can find these sets in a Target, Best Buy or Walmart, I’m not getting them. I’ll just stick with the DVDs I have.
I just recently started watching 30 Rock for 1st time on Hulu great show
It's a fantastic show, so smart and funny, and the Blu-rays are LOADED. Just about every pre-existing bonus feature from the DVDs has been carried over. It's crazy how much stuff is on the discs. I'm glad to see Mill Creek Entertainment now licensing some bonus features from the parent companies of the products they release.
All that plus Tina Fey is hot
I'm hearing impaired and rely on subtitles or closed captions when watching TV, or DVDs/blurays, and traditionally Mill Creek's releases don't include either. I have several of Mill Creek's TV show DVD sets and the audio was crisp enough on those releases so that I could still mostly follow the dialog even without subtitles. 'Quantum Leap' was one of my favourite shows when I was younger and when the bluray was released I jumped at buying the collection despite knowing it didn't have subtitles because I was confident I'd still be able to make out the dialog. Boy, was I wrong. I realize Mill Creek is reliant on the video and audio masters the studios provide them with, but the audio on the 'Quantum Leap' bluray collection is so poor with all dialog washed out, I simply cannot hear anything being said. I watched the first few episodes in the collection when I got the set, but might as well have been watching silent films since I couldn't make anything out. Because of that I put the set away and haven't finished it, although I plan to try to get through it eventually, even if I'm not in now rush to do so.
Again, I understand that Mill Creek is reliant on the elements they're provided with, but it just galls me that in 2020 (or 2017 when the set was released) the studios and DVD/bluray companies are fine with ignoring the significant portion of the audience that's deaf or hard of hearing. It wouldn't take that much space on a bluray disc to put some subtitle tracks.
Have you expressed this to the companies themselves? Maybe if enough people speak up for subtitles, that will go a long way. Also, for what it’s worth, 30 Rock is the newest set (just released yesterday) and it had subtitles.
@@CerealAtMidnight I've only done that once and never got a reply (it was to Warner Bros when they inexplicably released one of the last Harry Potter films on DVD without subtitles or captions). As for Mill Creek, I looked up the set on Blu-ray.com when I first heard about it and saw it listed subtitles (the Charlie's Angels collection too) so I'm glad to see they're finally adding them to their more recent releases. Both sets are now on my want list for that reason.
If you go all the way back to the movie Tourist Trap. Tanya Roberts was the hottest thing ever. She really was the Megan Fox of the early 80s.
The Miami Vice set isn't great at all first when it came out there was problem with like 4 disc and the picture and audio aren't great either, I still kept my NBC DVD which I think are still the best way to watch the show. The Knight Rider picture quality is amazing compared to the Miami Vice. Obviously Mill Creek whole thing is to have shows that are hard to find shows like Nash Bridges, Airwolf, Ultraman.... on the cheap I do support them but do your research there might be a better alternative.
I have all there ultraman sets I think it's there best releases till this date.
The Miami Vice audio issues were resolved mere weeks after the set was released years back, and only affected those who bought the box when it was brand new (like me). Replacement discs were issued almost immediately. I think the picture for Miami Vice looks really good, and miles better than the DVD, which can't handle all that natural film grain. People complain about how grainy and harsh Miami Vice looks, but that's exactly how it was shot and what it's supposed to look like. Grain is inherent in film, and I would prefer it not to be digitally scrubbed away or frozen with DNR. We can agree to disagree about the video quality of the Blu-rays, but I don't see how anyone would recommend 20+ year old technology over a nice, HD Blu-ray set that's been remastered from the original film source. If those DVDs make you happy, that's cool, but I think the Blu-rays are way more cinematic.
I got a Mill Creek set for 'Good Times' ...very disappointed with it. I'm going to buy a disc case for the 11 disc because they are not staying in those scratch 'doomed' cardboard sleeves. SMH LOL
Hoping for a Blu-ray in the future.
@@CerealAtMidnight Only way to go if you like disc not getting scratched lol! I knew that going in, but my problem is there is no episode booklet and the way they label the disc is confusing too ...i had to re-arrange them to look a little more uniformed in order !
I’d like to see them put out more classic shows on blu-ray. I just don’t have much interest in stuff like Mindy Project, King of Queens, or 30-Rock (yuck).
What classic shows would you like to see them put out? And maybe more importantly, what classic TV shows could they put out that you think would have successful sales numbers? They did, after all, just release Charlie's Angels on Blu-ray, which was a HUGE classic TV release. I have no inside knowledge, just my own personal perspective from seeing all the comments and engagement over certain releases, but I suspect 30 Rock and King of Queens sell ten times more sets than Airwolf. From a business point of view, new shows are way more financially profitable than niche shows, and shows like 30 Rock are still being used as pawns in the streaming wars, so their value is huge. I'm still hoping that Mill Creek Entertainment licenses Magnum P.I., The A-Team, and Baywatch.
Cereal At Midnight I would love to see The A-Team, Night Court, Perfect Strangers, Cheers, Unsolved Mysteries, Werewolf (doubtful on that one), Monsters, Tales From the Darkside, Starsky & Hutch, Welcome Back Kotter, Sledgehammer, The Greatest American Hero, and many other classic shows on blu-ray. I honestly have no idea how they would sell. As for newer shows, I would really like Due South to be on blu-ray. It’s all just down to personal preferences. If someone enjoys things like Mindy Project, King of Queens, & 30 Rock, I am happy for them that they have accessible releases. But to me, Mindy Project & King of Queens were middle of the road, so-so, disposable shows, and I never liked 30-Rock. Oddly enough, even though I don’t find Tina Fey funny, I did enjoy Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt that she produced and will likely look into that blu-ray release eventually.
😱
You accidentally bought King of Queens.
