The Muppet Show & Fraggle Rock
 
I saw on www.amazon.fr that these two brilliant tv-series has been released on DVD in boxsets of 5 DVD's with 26 episodes in each boxset. Now, does anybody know what these sets contain of bonus features and if they are released with the English audiotrack?


According to Babelfish, which I used to translate a review of "The Muppet Show" Boxset, there are no original English audio tracks included... Is this also true for "Fraggle Rock"??

This...would...ROCK. :thumbsup:

Hopefully one of our French DVDTalkers would be kind enough to translate for us...

Oh, man... Fraggle Rock. That would be soooo great.

The 26 episodes is strange. There were only 24 episodes in Season 1 (96 across all 5 seasons). If there are 26 episodes, I fear a "best of" collection. I'd definitely prefer full seasons.

Of course Amazon is known for it's accurate research and reporting. They're NEVER wrong with their facts - oh no!

Err... there's a picture of the packaging that clearly shows that there are 26 episodes. So, at least in this case, Amazon is correct.

So...any french speaking/reading posters wanna let us know if there's english audio tracks?

Thanks.

Subtitles don't exactly work very well for children who are too young to read.

I would assume the UK release is being spread across several individual volumes since the French edition has 26 episodes.

This page is FULL of info...

I guess i'll give it a shot..

Just to let you know, apparently the lighthouse keeper was different in the British Fraggle Rock than the US Fraggle Rock (I used to watch it all the time in Britain, but didn't know the Scottish lighthouse keeper was just for Britain :))

Ah, here we go, I'm not crazy ;)

Yeah they had different guys for different countries. I think in France it was a pastry shop.

Wow, that's cool. I never knew that!

(Although, watching it without Doc would be really, really strange...)
