Anthology series. Each self-contained story is 65 minutes. Shot on videotape between 1973 and 1976. Some serious amazing guest stars.

Click on each story title for its own page and the review. There's not too many for each so you'll see my comments quick enough.

The Complete Monty Python's Flying Circus 16-Ton Megaset

This unassuming case is packed with 16 tons of funny: 14 discs of MONTY PYTHON’S FLYING CIRCUS, packed with every episode from the programme’s four year run, plus 2 MONTY PYTHON LIVE! discs featuring--well, you figure it out. While to the uninitiated they may look like ordinary .65 oz. digital video discs, due to the unique physics of comedy (it’s like quantum but with fewer dead cats), each disc actually weighs a full metaphoric ton! Please remember to lift with your knees.

Deadwood: The Complete Series - $105.49 or £41.99

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001FA1OTU/?tag=thumpedcom-20

http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000V7ZML4

The UK one is cheaper but it says it has 12 discs.
The US one has 19.

They seem like they're the same thing though.

Huh?

Huh?

Hmmm - I'm not a Deadwood expert but...
The region 1 releases have all been six discs per season. Pretty sure that two discs are for extras / supplementary material.

Region 2 have been four discs per season. Short on the extras front.

Looks like the new US set has an extra disc [6 x 3 plus 1] while the region 2 set is a straight repackage of the existing releases.

For those killing time in town, HMV is a good bit cheaper for DVDs than Tower or, I hate to say it, Laser.

Agree? Please tell me if I'm wronk or if there's somewhere cheaper.

For instance, Tower has nothing under a tenner. Same for Laser. HMV has a lot of world cinema (e.g. 13 (Tzameti)*, L'Enfer, Sympathy for Mr. Vengance), classics (e.g. Hitchcock, Deerhunter) and Horror (Omen etc) for about €7 or €8. I feel like getting a basket when I'm in there.
