I have no doubt that disc will look much better than any previous home video copy. However, the simple Blu-ray keepcase definitely doesn’t hold a candle to the Laserdisc packages released back in the day. In the United...

I just haven’t felt that this is a series I needed to recap every episode for. I’ve held no illusions that it’s even a good show. (It’s not.) Yet I’ve continued to watch for some reason, out of some misguided need to...

There’s a reason for that. Frankly, I often find myself wondering why I continue to watch the show. It’s not very good. Nonetheless, I’m in a rut where I feel like, since I’ve already watched it this far, I might...

I was a big fan of the original 1983 miniseries, though less so of the lousy 1984 sequel or the campy weekly series that followed. The concept is still pretty solid, and I hoped that a decent budget and...
