TV NEWS ON JUNE 16

http://blog.sitcomsonline.com/2012/06/digital-digest-season-six-of-night.html Welcome to the last Digital Digest of the "official" spring season! We're here once again with all of your usual news (hopefully some of which is true news to you), a look ahead at Tuesday's releases, and reviews! This week, we've got a double feature for reviews (and we will have plenty more double features for the summer months), with reviews of Scandal - The Complete First Season and Rocko's Modern Life - Season Three. Let's get going! DIGITAL NEWS We absolutely love Warner Archive for always bringing us so much positive news in a time where other studios are bringing gloom and doom when it comes to DVDs, and just this past Tuesday, they treated us to an unexpected surprise (although it was much less of a surprise if you've been reading their Facebook page or our edition of Digital Digest from two weeks ago!) as they released Alice - The Complete First Season (read our review). The good news this month doesn't stop with Alice, though! With the chaos of this sudden release, something else that has been discussed much less is the release of the sixth season of Night Court, which we first told you about in December. We knew it would be coming, but yesterday, we got a very pleasant surprise as Pavan, our reviewer for releases of the series, unexpectedly received a copy of Night Court - The Complete Sixth Season! The set is not slated to be available to order until June 26, but we have it now... so expect a review of the set very soon. Speaking of Warner Archive, if you buy those Alice DVDs any time in the very near future (and you should, it is a nice collection of episodes), you'll be in for a pleasant surprise once you receive the set. Although it has not exactly been fully acknowledged by Warner Archive, one thing that we noticed in our review copy of the set is that the DVDs definitely did not look like DVD-R media, but rather regular pressed DVDs (i.e. the same type of DVDs available at retailers). It wasn't mentioned in the review, because we weren't really sure about it, but this morning, there was a bit of discussion on Home Theater Forum about this same issue. So, last night, after somebody brought the discussion over to the Warner Archive Facebook page, they addressed this matter (though not fully answering exactly why this is happening, but acknowledging that it is indeed happening), stating: "Your comment earlier today on HTF was fairly accurate. Your wisdom is commendable."
