That '70s Show: Season 1 @ Fry's $11.99

This was at the Fry's in the Clear Lake/Nasa Houston location and it was not advertised but they were all tagged at $11.99. YMMV.

Lowest it has been at Amazon is $13.49 but it usually hovers around $17.00.

The PQ is supposed to be pretty good. The aspect ratio presented here is 1.78:1 and it's 1080p. I've done a lot worse for $12.

I have this got it when Amazon had it for $13.49. I checked out a few of the episodes I'm not sure if it was originally shot in 1.78:1 aspect ratio ,but there is no stretching from what I can see. It certainly looks and sounds great from the few episodes I watched. Well worth the price I paid so at $11.99 its a steal.

I just got it from DD for $6.xx last week, with the 25% off and $5 off coupons. The $5 coupon is dead, but with just the 25% off, it will be slightly cheaper at DD ($10.78 w/ 25% off coupon, however add 99 cents for shipping unless you order something else with it), and you should be able to stack the other 10% coupon as well to make it even cheaper.

Are we talking about the Mill Creek versions? (It's hard to tell without a link.) I picked up S1 and S2 for $3.99 each at Target on BF. I think I've seen them for $9.99 at Target after BF, but I'm not sure. Anyway, if it's the Mill Creek DVD version I'd say $11.99 is expensive just because Mill Creek sets are usually pretty cheap and sometimes go on sale for $5-ish at Target.

1. This thread is in blu-ray bargains. No, it's not the dvd version. It is the Mill Creek blu-ray version.
2. Did the image of the blu-ray on my original post not clearly identify the format?

Just to be certain, here you go:
$11.99 at Fry's.

Also, this is spread out over four BD-50 discs, not two discs as stated on Fry's website.

I don't believe Mill Creek were the ones to actually do the work on this. I was kind of surprised this was released by them to be honest.

Re: That '70s Show: Season 1 @ Fry's $11.99

I watched the first two episodes last night. The PQ is surprisingly not bad at all. It's actually pretty damn good. That '70s Show was filmed in widescreen so the 1.78:1 ratio is what you are supposed to see.

I am pleased with what I've seen so far; here's hoping to the other 6 or 7 seasons on blu-ray.

Odd they would call it a '90s sitcom when the bulk of its run was in the 2000s.
