Ok, guys. Since many of you complained about the DVD release, I think we should discuss the DVD set we really want to see. These would be my ideas:
contents: I think they should release two volumes (with 22 original episodes each). I don't care if they put it in chronological order or the order they were aired. The boxes should include 2 DVDs per episode (one with the original episodes+commentary) and the second one with the historical documentaries, some making-ofs and other bonus stuff.
exceptions:
Curse of the Jackal: I think we all agree the split-up of the pilot episode was the worst idea in the history of Young Indiana Jones. Lucas should put Egypt and Mexico together again and don't make any changes to the original pilot.
Travels with Father: Since I have never seen the bookend episode (Princeton, 1919) I can't give an opinion on this one, but I think it would be a bad idea to put Princeton back with Travels with Father. I liked the George Hall and Harrison Ford bookends, but in my opinion the idea of a Flanery bookend is a little bit confusing. I'm looking forward to read your opinion on this.
Daredevils of the Desert: Since the original was only 45 minutes long, I think they should put the original on Disc 1 and the longer "Director's cut" on Disc 2.
Mystery of the Blues: I think the Harrison Ford version should be on Disc 1 and the alternate version with George Hall bookends on Disc 2.
Barcelona, 1917 and German East Africa, December 1916: These episodes were redubbed for the re-edits and the originals would be my first choice for the DVD release.
Tangiers, May 1908: Since Corey Carrier looks much older in this episode than he should be, they should rename it (Tangiers, Fall 1910)
And all the episodes that were changed in their date, should get their original title back.
There are probably some exceptions I forgot and other things that would be vital for an original episode release. These would be my ideas and I'm sure you all have different opinions, so I'm looking forward to read your replies.
