| Not QUITE what I thought |
I just received this boxed set. I was utterly crushed to realize that I had received the COLORIZED versions of seasons 1 and 2 (note that seasons 3 on were filmed in color... but seasons 1 and 2 were filmed in black and white). I realize they don't say either way in the text above, but somehow, I had assumed they would provide the good version (by which I mean the original black and white). I can only assume that this was a sneaky way of forcing the colorized version down our throats.
Now, if you actually wanted the colorized version for some reason, this is the set for you. But if you want the good version, note that seasons 3, 4, and 5, at today's amazon.com prices, will cost you $[...] - much less than this set.
In fact, for those of you who are math-challenged or too lazy to look for yourselves, today's price to get all five seasons listed here (including the COLORIZED versions, which are cheaper than the black and white versions) is $[...] - which is less than today's price for this set. I only paid $[...] on special, so you should wait for that price to come back around before you buy this set. If you can't wait, buy them individually. There do not appear to be any special extras that don't come with the individual seasons, so you miss nothing.
