thompsonjohn Jul 03, 2016 Looks like Mill Creek stepped up their packaging game for the blu-ray. Before I splurged the near $100 for "The Larry Sanders Show" from Shout! Factory, I decided to give Mill Creek's complete series a go. Apparently, rights lapsed, but Shout! is still selling what stock they have I assume. Needless to say not only was Mill Creek's packaging shit, a bunch on discs in plastic sleeves you simply stack in a box, but the A/V was also crap compared to Shout!'s. Mill Creek squeezed as many episodes as they could onto each disc, in turn the video looked terrible compared to Shout!'s which is saying a lot because the first 2 or 3 seasons even on Shout!'s set don't look all that perfect, but still not as bad as Mill Creek's.



I want this, but I would also advise would-be buyers to wait for some reviews to come out before you buy, this is Mill Creek after all.



And as for ported extras, yeah I wouldn't hold out hope. They didn't or couldn't get included any extras from Shout!'s "Larry Sanders" box-set, why would they bother to get whatever Universal has? Mill Creek comes off as lazy and that's extra work for them. If the episodes look and sound good, and include 100% original soundtrack and songs like they say, then that's over and above for them and we should be glad we're getting that. I just keep hoping they don't package this like crap.



EDIT: I'd love if they took on "Crime Story" next as that has never looked good on DVD. I owned some complete series set of that, it's only two seasons I believe, but the video was crap and it was missing songs from original broadcasts.
