DVD Talk review of 'The Office - Season Six' (Blu-ray)

Dude, "Hunting Trip" is from season 2 of "Parks and Recreation". Did you actually watch this Blu-ray set?

That particular extra, obviously not.

We reviewers often don't get the time to scrutinize absolutely everything, especially on a TV set packed with extra features. Generally on a season set like this, I try to watch at least half the episodes, watch/listen to the main extras in their entirely but tend to skim over more trivial things like music videos, trivia games, etc.

In this case I just dropped the ball, dude. After 1,208 reviews over seven years, I hope you'll give me some slack.

No slack Stuart. You need to commit your soul to each DVD and Blu-Ray; real people with real feelings create those trivia games.

Stuart,
I over-reacted. I apologize.

No problem. I weighed getting the review out as quickly and as timely as possible vs. doing it right, and fell short in examining the extras as thoroughly as I should have and was called out on that. Fair enough.

At the end of Scott's Tots, the Michael and Erin driving scene (second to last scene I think) is windowboxed like a non-anamorphic letterboxed dvd appears on a widescreen display and then the following scene switches back to filling the 16:9 frame. I can't remember, did it air that way for some reason or is this a mistake on the BD?

If the review needs anything, it needs to be updated to include information about the faulty discs. There's even a thread here about the problem - http://forum.dvdtalk.com/hd-talk/579...-glitches.html

It's been a year and the problem persists - I just picked up the set and have the exact same problems.

Sorry I haven't seen this until now, but yes, that's the way it was during broadcast as well.

No biggie, it's not like the problem can be changed and I'd forgotten about it anyway.
