Don't Allow The Edits To Stop You From Buying This Season...
First of all, I am a HUGE fan of THE ODD COUPLE and this show has been one of my most eagerly anticipated on DVD forever. I'm not going to say that I am thrilled about the song edits regarding Season Three, but the truth is that while I easily noticed two of the cuts, I was surprised to learn here that there were actually more... meaning, they were not always glaringly obvious and seldom take away from the enjoyment of this classic comedy show. There are so many funny things to love about the series that you just have to grin and bear it. Some people have said that their TV recordings retain some of the music cues, but at what cost? Losing some other sections of the show? Those syndication episodes are not 100% complete either, and are probably missing MORE than these DVDs are. Since the upcoming last two seasons of THE ODD COUPLE rely heavily on their music for the very flow of the stories, perhaps Paramount is skimping a bit on Season 3 so that they can devote the money to Seasons 4 and 5, where such missing music truly renders the episodes incomprehensible. Lastly, what do any of you hope to accomplish by skipping the purchase of this season? Paramount has been great at getting these DVDs released quickly at this point, and it looks like they're going to do the entire run -- so stop the whining. It's not like they're going to go back and re-edit and re-release Season 3 just to keep you happy. And by not buying it you're only hurting yourselves and shooting yourselves in the foot. Hey, I don't like incomplete episodes any more than you do, but maybe we just have to face the fact that some complete episodes as they were originally broadcast in the 1970s when they first aired may be "lost" when it comes to the DVD world. What alternatives do you have -- to hold onto your crummy-looking syndicated tapes?? They may have the music cues, but they're cut elsewhere too. April 18, 2008
OK, This Has Gone Far Enough...
I first noticed it in "Role Reversal." In the original uncut episode, the episode ends with Felix saying, ""I think I sing better than you do," then hanging up his coat while delievering a bar or two of "Cocktails for Two" while Oscar slams the closet door on him, closing him in. **Now,** the DVD ends with Felix saying "I think I sing better than you do." Cut!!!! Preposterous. Who is so tight that they'd take offense to Tony Randall singing a bar or two of a song???? Do they think they are losing money by allowing me to hear those two bars without paying royalties? What's next -- arresting me for humming while I walk down the street? Someone is taking CYA to the sublime here. April 15, 2008
Lots of fun, I love the Odd Couple,
I love this odd couple season. Its better than the last two but i still love them all. When I watch it with my family it always gives them a laugh. This is a very good buy if you like old comedies that still live on forever. April 6, 2008
