5.0 out of 5 stars Infinty could use a QC manager, but..., February 17, 2010

This review is from: Route 66: Complete Third Season (DVD)

Roxbury/Infinty have had a rocky time releasing Route 66 on DVD. The first half of season one used poor quality prints, including one edited episode. The second half of season one was originally released with the aspect ratio altered. The aspect ratio was corrected with the complete first season release, but the poor quality prints remained. Season two came off without a hitch, but the "Best Buy exclusive" release of season three was marred by disc authorship problems. I am happy to report that the corrected release (packaged in a yellow-hued plastic as another commenter has noted) has played well, though with the disc rattle that has plagued several Infinty releases. The A/V quality on this release is good, if not up to Image Entertainment standards. Solid blacks and little debris present. Also, there is no episode list contained in this set. The show itself is, of course, one of the best in US TV history, so it's worth overlooking the minor quibbles (disc rattle and no booklet).

This review is from: Route 66: Complete Third Season (DVD)

This is a review of this specific DVD package combining Season 3 Parts 1 and 2. Disc 2 has unreadable sections on it. I've tried a DVD player, Blu-Ray player, and several PC drives, and all freeze at certain times on Disc 2 (previously issued as Disc 2 of Season 1, Part 1). I received two replacement copies from Amazon with exactly the same defect. Whether it's a manufacturer's problem or simply a defect in a certain batch, I don't know. This was taken off the Amazon market for a short time, but since it's available again I assume this problem has been resolved. I'll wait awhile before purchasing the set again, however.

This review is from: Route 66: Complete Third Season (DVD)

It's great to have these episodes available on DVD, but the first disc is obviously unbalanced and vibrates so violently it sounds like it's going to shake my DVD player apart. Also, it would have been a small matter to include an enclosure listing the episode titles, but there was nothing. Still, I'm happy to have it.
