Adam 12 - Classic Collection - Embossed Slim Tin



Adam-12 returns to DVD for another great season
I got hooked on Adam-12 when Tv Land aired it a few years ago. It's one of the best done cop shows that has ever aired on television. It has a serious, straight forward look at life on the streets, but there is plenty of humor to give it a perfect balance. Dranget and Emergency also blended well. Jack Webb was in charge of all of the shows mentioned above. I can only hope that Shout Factory will release the rest of Adam-12 and then release the final three years of Dragnet. I am shocked that Dragnet did not sell well enough to continue releasing it. Anyway, buy the third season of Adam-12, you won't regret it.

Not their best - but we still love it!
Not sure if the director changed? Writers changed? Jack Webb got too involved in this season??? But, the acting by main characters (especially Malloy) and the extras changed a lot and not for the better. The acting is stiff in many episodes - the terminology used is beyond hokey at times - such as Beji yelling out Dadio (episode 3 The Purse snachter) - this is the late 60s Mr. Webb!!! It is obvious that the "bad acting" has to be the writers/directors/Jack Webb as many of the extras have appeared in other episodes, other seasons and were much better!
But there are a few episodes that are really good! My favorite is when Malloy realizes in roll call that his license has expired and Reed finally gets to drive! This is an excellent episode and by itself brings the 3 stars up to a 4. Adam 12 is one of our FAVORITE series! Where is season 6&7??? I've watched them on Netflix, they have to be out there???
Here is a breakdown of episodes available on season 3:...

Great Job on Season 3 of Adam 12!
I just spent the last 2 days doing my own version of a mini marathon watching Adam 12 - Season 3. Shout Factory came through with another fine product. There were no difficulties with watching the DVDs. The picture was crisp and clean, colors were not faded and worn out. The audio was also nicely done! Great job! I look forward to buying Season 4 whenever it becomes available.

This is my favorite series (other than Star Trek).

The Fraggles...Rock!
Fraggle Rock fans just can't get enough!

The Third Season of the incredibly popular Fraggle Rock TV show is finally out in stores, and if you have never seen or heard of the Fraggles, you must have been under a rock. Along with the success of the Muppets, Jim Henson and company created the Fraggles, a world inhabited by doozers, Gorgs, and fraggles.

Doozers are small, but industrious. Gorgs and big, hairy, and always entertaining. Fraggles just do..they get in trouble, learn lessons, and hide from the human in the room. Their adventures are amazing. In their world bordered by the human and the Gorgs, Wembley, Red, Gobo, Mokey, Boober and Uncle Matt live and learn enthusiastically.

The Henson team created a rich tapestry like background for the series. Brightly colored sets, amazing puppets, and characters that encouraged a child-like fascination with the outside world made this a global hit. The five disc set includes all 24 episodes where Red...
