Friday the 13th: The Series

Post by Brent_Reid »

Is the US first season confirmed as being mono, as listed? This seems odd when seasons two and three are currently listed as stereo, as are all three seasons of the German DVDs.
It should be noted that the German DVDs have NTSC-PAL transfers.
The US sets were repackaged and reissued as "The Complete Series" box set, ASIN: B01HPGE9LC.
All three seasons were also issued in Oz by Umbrella Entertainment.

Just checked a few episodes of S1 while I was correcting my Golden Years submission and it is mono, as per the back of the sleeve.

Have you tested that only season two is stereo, Eric? If so, that's most strange.
Does anyone have the German DVDs to check them? Extremely odd the German discs should be any different, when they're presumably using the same NTSC masters. Either way, corrections are in order.

I was planning to buy this series, but noted the inconsistencies while looking it up.

Just noting what is on the back cover scans. I haven’t seen the series since it used to run with Freddy’s Nightmares after 21 Jump Street.
