Simon & Simon Season 5

DVD Wholesale Quick Overview:

The picture/print quality wasn’t as good as that for the fourth season set. I thought the reason for the drop in picture quality, was because the makers of the show changed the way Simon & Simon was shot in the 1985-86 season, and that it had the same look which Dallas had in the 1986-87 season (shot on videotape). But no, the way Simon & Simon was filmed hadn’t changed. The masters just looked really grainy in parts. I didn’t think Shout! Factory’s releases of the second to fourth seasons had been digitally remastered, but they looked in better condition than the episodes in the fifth season set.

The menu screens in this Shout! Select set (the presentation, the absence of the first season theme tune and action scene with explosion before the menu screen appeared) were good. I was initially disappointed, then realised that as it was a Shout! Select title and not like the second to fourth season sets, cost cuts may have had to be made.

If you were a fan of “Simon & Simon” when it aired in the ’80s, don’t miss the opportunity to see them again on your own terms. Watching Simon & Simon again, on DVD whenever I want, is great. I loved this series when it originally aired and watching the series via DVD is just as enjoyable!
