Now I HAVE to get this. Here's why: I popped my Disc 1 of Sports Night in last night. I was starting A Sports Night marathon. One Episode for the next 44 weeknights. After about 15 minutes into the pilot - the moment right after Jeremy's first hilarious Huff (of which many more were to come) the disc just completely froze. The player wouldn't respond at all. Had to unplug it. Tried again. Same thing.
Anyone else have this issue with disc 1?

My girlfriend loves this show.
She already has the first release of the DVD set, but this will be good news anyway

It's official. It's coming September 30 from Shout!, so time to unload your barebones sets.

Two discs worth of extra? 
However, I still will only double-dip if they can remove the laugh tracks. The two-discs full of extra sound great, but I don't think I need it unless the episodes are in a higher quality.

I'll wait for news on the extras but no laugh track was the one thing I really wanted from this re-release.

Ended up getting it for around $5 shipped thru DDD. I had a $35 credit sitting on one of my credit cards for the longest time and I decided to use that to pay for this. I got it yesterday, but I haven't had time to watch it. I too, was waiting for the DVDTalk Reviews but I guess none are coming in the near future. I found a bunch of online reviews by googling and they all say this is what the fans have really been waiting for.

What's the verdict on the video quality? Any better than the old set?

Video quality looked better in the last set, in my opinion. But I'm not using an HD-TV. No Captions Either.
And I'm slightly disappointed in the extras too. No Sabrina in the look back doc. But that ten minute gag reel of season one is pretty good. It makes the 2 minute gag reel for season 2 look awful.
The sound does appear to have more clarity, though.
