Do you know how long it took me to get Newman's Vorpal Blade to drop? Game is infuriating.

Did Jerry ever actually wear a sweater vest in any episode? I've seen promo pics of him wearing one, but I can't recall him wearing one in the show. It was usually just sneaker, tight jeans, baggy shirt (90s fashion was terrible) and a jacket for going out. No vest. WHERES THE VEST?

I had been waiting for this, but some of the comments on Amazon's page are making me think twice. Apparently, the transfer isn't anything great--artifacts, low-res. It's airing in up-converted HD on TBS almost every night, and there's also a TBA page for season one on Blu-Ray. I'm thinking...keep waiting?

The average rating on Amazon is 4.77/5, which is probably higher than any other "complete collection" dvd set. I was going to upload the restoration easter egg that's on the DVDs, but it's copyrighted so here's some lossless screenshots instead:

I'm no videophile, but I've never noticed any artifacting. Just your standard film grain that is no worse than any other 90s TV show on dvd. Personally I wouldn't wait who-knows-how-long just to spend 2 or 3 times as much on an HD version of the show

I can't even look at that picture without laughing. Holy poo poo. That plot was so great, and it really helped develop Kruger.

That's probably my biggest complaint with them ending at 9 seasons: not enough K-uuuuuger. That man gave so little fucks that it was amazing to watch him.

Highly recommend checking out Lord of Illusions if you like that actor. He plays a completely different role, but with some of the same irreverence that later K-uuuuuger has.

Or maybe there'd be an accident with an uninsured driver and the judge rules he has to be the thread's gang tag until his debt is paid off..

Not really, but there's this. Also from that same behind the scenes, they said that Newman was originally supposed to be the building snitch, so everyone hated him.

I don't think it's so bad. People should wear gang tags. Everyone would be a lot friendlier. "Hello, Sam." "How you doing, Joe?"
