Customer Reviews for
NYPD Blue - The Complete Third Season
When are they publishing the next series on DVD ?
I absolutely love this series and I can not believe they have not published the next season on DVD yet. I can't wait to watch it.
NYPD Blue - The Complete Third Season
Addictive series
I purchased the first season DVD because of David Caruso starred in it. Then when I got into it I had to have the other seasons as well.
Jimmy Smit made a great replacement character when David left. He was very handsome, a great actor and his character is so complex. All of the series regulars were interesting and well played.
I just wonder IF New York city is that conjested and crowded, the 15th precinct shows a down and dirty part of the city. I enjoyed the series.NYPD Blue - The Complete Third Season
Best TV drama ever
I'm a died in the "blue" fan! It doesn't get any better than this. If I had to pick one aspect that's most impressive, I'd say it is how real the street people come across--the perps, the druggies, the prostitutes, the punks, etc. All of the supporting cast are finely detailed, both the writing and the acting.NYPD Blue - The Complete Third Season
Great Show, Horrible New Packaging
I'll skip the glowing praise for the show in this short review, and instead address something I feel has been largely ignored: the packaging.
Seasons 1 and 2 came in a nice fold-out boxed set and ran at 6 DVDs. They played great on all my DVD players and were as beautiful as the content on them. Unfortunately, someone decided to save money by using 2-sided DVDs and reduce the count to 4 (and smaller packaging as well) with Seasons 3 and 4. For those of you not familiar with dual-sided discs I say this . . . Ordinarily, if they are used it's to have a 1-side is fullscreen (pan and scan) 1-side is widescreen movie disc. This is in itself no great hardship, since the main issues with such discs (there's nowhere to safely touch but the inner ring and outer edge, which is damn difficult putting it in or taking it our of a case) is mitigated by the owner's preference of 4:3 or 16:9; That is, you'll always play one or the other so the inevitable fingerprints are not that big a deal, since you'll touch the 'top' you never play.
Unfortunately, the episodes in NYPD Blue are on both sides of all the discs, so the inevitable fingerprints (and I imagine scratches, sooner or later) prevent you playing episodes. Not to mention that out of the box I had issues playing them on one of my DVD players. I don't know if it's bending the spec on compression, oversized discs, or some exotic new copy-protection mod, but I will say this: I resent buying discs that appear designed to fail and cost me to replace later on. I, for one, would gladly pay extra for the single-sided DVDs and larger packaging they used previously. I'm Extremely unhappy with the new packaging\discs and would advise anyone looking to get the series to think twice if they have problems with newer or dual-sided DVDs.
Short form? Horrible changes I suspect were just to boost a profit margin at the fans' expense. Not only am I unlikely to pick up Season 5 or later if they stick with the format, I'm seriously considering unloading what I already bought.NYPD Blue - The Complete Third Season
