In the individual season 1 box set unrestored masters were used for season 1 as the Season 1 box originally was a compilation of earlier DVDs that just featured a few episodes.

Season 1 was originally was 9 discs sold seperate and then boxed together as you said in 9 keepcases (the pic on left), rereleased as 7 discs in 4 thin cases (the pic on right), Bonus disc

So the only difference is the bonus disc and the crappy packaging for the complete series. ;)

Yes, there was. I picked it up in August 2009 for $14.99.

Yep! Went in today, (Fayetteville Ga store) and they replaced it with a Twilight display. Hooray! -rolleyes- So, no markdown to 2 for $12. Not nearly the number of sets as last year (Last year,IIRC, Magnum ,S1-S2, & S3-S4) , Friday night Lights, Hunter S1,S2 andS3 S4 , Lucy S1&S2, Waltons(or was that the year before?) Northern Exposure 1 thru 4) and a ton of food channel sets. Went to the Bogata(sp) section, and their same, lame fitness Dvds were almost completely sold out. Something just seems strange about the way Target can't seem to keep certain stuff in stock the last few months...they can't be selling that well.

One way of getting Season 1 & 2 cheap is joining the Columbia House DVD Club. Those 2 are available as enrollments. You can get up to 7 TV titles in your enrollment from a select list.
Here's some sets available:

Re: TARGET -- 2 packs of TV sets -- 19.99

Thanks for the suggestions. I keep forgetting I'm a member of Columbia House except to say no to the director's selection once a month. Since I don't get their mailers any more, I don't know if they ever have any deals worth bothering with except for new enrollments. For the couple years I got the mailers, I don't think they had anything that interested me, so CH sort of just dropped off the map for me. At least I have one account if by some chance they ever have a worthwhile deal. Unfortunately work and family keeps me too busy to devote enough time to find an offer, enroll again, and try to find reasonably priced fulfilments.

I remember that my Target never got the S1 & S2 I Love Lucy pack for $14.99 years ago since I had checked many times.

Re: TARGET -- 2 packs of TV sets -- 19.99

All the 2 packs are on sale this week (various prices).

Re: TARGET -- 2 packs of TV sets -- 19.99

I saw a new four foot section of two packs. The only new one I noticed was 3rd Rock From the Sun S3/S4 (Mill Creek versions) for $9.99.

Interesting. Do you think they just put them out, or were they out all week? Are they all $9.99?

I also saw a two pack of Roseanne (Seasons 3+4, I think) for $14.99. At one Target, the 3rd Rock was $9.99 and the other it was $14.99.

No, that was the only $9.99 set. Not sure when they put them out. Here's a crappy pic of the section:

Either that or it should include Dramamine.

Re: TARGET -- 2 packs of TV sets -- 19.99

Strange that the news didn't have anything about the earthquake at that store.

Re: TARGET -- 2 packs of TV sets -- 19.99

You guys are pretty funny! :) My camera phone will take pics like that, and for no reason! No movement, nothing...face it most phones cameras are afterthoughts! In spite of the jokes, Thanks Texan26!

Re: TARGET -- 2 packs of TV sets -- 19.99

Does anyone know if the season 3/4 of Roseanne comes with a bonus disc like season 1/2 did?

and what's the price? $14.99??

Right now, I can get both shipped for $12.98 on Amazon so unless Target has a bonus disc, I'll probably go with amazon.

I noticed some people discussing 9.99 and 12.99 sales as well. Did that ever apply to the roseanne sets?

I guess even if they were 9.99 for both with tax and the cost of driving to target and wasting time, it would come out to nearly $12 anyways. might as well spend an extra buck to just get them now?

Re: TARGET -- 2 packs of TV sets -- 19.99

I was in Target tonight and the 2 pack section is now gone. They've replaced it with single sets of (mostly) early seasons of shows. Most were priced 9.99 or 14.99, I remember seeing:

NCIS S1
Criminal Minds S1
Gomer Pyle S1
Bionic Woman S1, 2 and 3
Six Million Dollar Man S1
Monk S(?)
Magnum P.I. S1 and 2 (in new single-size DVD case packaging)
Columbo TV Movies (?)
Murder She Wrote TV Movies

Re: TARGET -- 2 packs of TV sets -- 19.99

Also Mission Impossible S1, but I'm drawing a blank on the rest...

Re: TARGET -- 2 packs of TV sets -- 19.99

Which Columbo movies? I have all the mystery movies but 1991-1993

Bogias S1 is another title that I saw, at $14.99, which is the lowest price ever ime. Hawaii 5-0 (current version) S1 was that price too.

They had moved some other titles around in the regular TV section and I think that I saw other prices changed. But I can't say for sure.

I noticed the same thing but it really didn't register until I read your post. Of course I always felt most of those 2-packs were "clearance" type stuff, mostly those shows going from digipak/fatpack to the newer slim pack cases. There were a few that seemed to be geared towards getting you hooked to you would purchase singles of the later seasons (I Love Lucy for one). I'll miss them as I picked up several series that way.

It may be a YMMV situation, but I picked up H50 S1 this week for $12.99.
