U.N.C.L.E. on DVD – initial thoughts…

Christmas has come early for yours truly. This set is fantastic. It contains all 106 episodes, extras on every season set (including over an HOUR of McCallum and Vaughn talking and playing off each other!), and over five hours of bonus features on two additional DVDs. Was it worth the $200+ dollars? Oh, yes indeed it was (and is).

Is it perfect? No. I’d have loved to have seen all four movies in the set (edited together from episodes – we only get one here) and I’d have appreciated getting the reunion movie from ’83 here as well. And, of course, even though I have only a mild interest, the completist in me would love to have seen all the Girl from U.N.C.L.E. episodes included in this set. But these are minor complaints.

I’ve already told the wife to erase everything I have on the Tivo I have not yet watched, because now that I have this (and my soon to arrive Blade Runner 5-disc HD-DVD set) I’ll be occupied for some time.

Thank you, Time-Life home video. Thank you.
