Its not like they knew where the Euro Vacation episodes really took place, even Mirage's official website listed them as Season 7 eps.

Release boxsets for every season that only got volumes. Plus, some of the artwork used on the volumes always confused me.

Uh, only Season 3 got volumes, every other season has a complete set release. I don't see what's so bad about it either, it was only 4 different DVDs.

[Mr. Orange]

Season 2 was oddly labeled as volume 2.

I realize this doesn't matter to some, but the episodes out of order and placed on the last disc of the previous season didn't make sense to me either. It's not something a casual person buying would notice, but it bothered me. I fully admit to being picky however.

But it still contained all 13 episodes of Season 2....what is the problem?

Only Season 3 was stretched out over 4 discs.

Its 2 skipped episodes, its not a disaster.

[Mr. Orange]

It was just puzzling to me is all.

I said I was picky when it came to DVDs. Lionsgate is doing the Power Rangers Samurai DVDs and they appear to be doing even worse with them. Either way, I'd love to see them go back and correct a few things.

Apart from being slightly outdated and not mentioning season nine and ten, this video pretty much sums up the issues:

[CyberCubed]

The guy in the video is full of nonsense. There is NOTHING confusing about the Lionsgate TMNT DVDs.

Every Season had a complete set except for Season 3, and even then it was only 4 discs. There is one problem of two skipped episodes, and that's it.

I swear, how do people think there's a big problem with Lionsgate DVD releases?

[Mr. Orange]

That's awesome that you're great with them, and it was awesome to finally seem them on DVD, but I had just hoped they'd fix a few things.

Mostly I hate volumes. To each their own.

[prophecy718]

I'm happy that we even got the whole series on DVD..alot of other shows stopped being released on dvd (ducktales, darkwing duck, fresh prince of bel-air to name a few)...

I'm not even going to complain lol...I'm satisfied.

There's nothing on volumes 1-6 that indicate they make up seasons 1-3. I've know dozens of people who thought the volumes were just random episodes, and/or that the DVDs had just skipped over the first three seasons.

It may not be confusing to you, or to anyone else that have followed the DVD releases, but it's incredibly confusing to a casual buyer (or, in James Rolfe's case, someone who jumped into the DVDs later on).

[gobo]

Just wish I had made my in-better-order DVD-Rs before now.

Oh, and isn't about time we rename this thread?

It's their problem if they don't read descriptions. Who the hell buys things without researching first?

The Lionsgate DVDs were released in a decent manner. We have season sets for every season but one which is still in order.

[Mr. Orange]

If I ever have a shake my head moment over the Lionsgate DVDs, I just have to console myself with the absolute mess that is the 2K3 DVDs.

Most people don't. Most series, you don't have to make a road map in order to find out what you have to purchase, it's laid out there plain-as-day where to start. When you see "Season 4" for a show, it's assumed there is sets for "Season 1", a "Season 2", and a "Season 3". In this case, there are sets for the first two seasons, but they're listed as "volumes". Even if you do realize that those volumes are seasons, by that extension, you start to assume that each volume has a complete season; but then, you'd wonder why there's "Volumes 4/5/6" and "Seasons 4/5/6". Keep in mind, this is a hypothetical situation with someone who isn't as in-tune with the classic Ninja Turtles series as we are; they might just be someone who grew up with the series who might feel like collecting the DVDs.

And you can't exactly blame them for thinking the Volumes have random episodes. If you notice, nearly all other animated series do Volumes for random episodes to appeal to the most casual (i.e. kids) buyers, and they rarely ever go in order. This is why the 4Kids releases got so screwed up by the end of season 2.

[CyberCubed]

Even if I wasn't a hardcore TMNT fan, I doubt it would have taken me long to figure out what these DVDs were. People like to pretend that Lionsgate did this horrible injustice to fans, when in reality they released a 193 episode series on DVD from 2004 to 2012 with the only mistakes being two skipped episodes.

They even gave us interviews with th VA's for god sakes. People just love to complain.

[Mr. Orange]

I'm not complaining so much as I'm just confused on the way they chose to release it.

Ep. 7 - Enter: The Fly

20:40 Michelangelo: "Awesome shooting, Master Splinter!" Donatello: "Especially for someone who doesn't believe in violence!" Splinter: *Turns to camera and turns red*

Ep. 16 - Teenagers from Dimension X: (NOTE: It's kind of hard to tell if they are meaning to break the 4th Wall in these two because in the first one it almost looks like Shredder is looking at Rocksteady when he says "Nothing personal" and while the camera is zoomed in on Mikey's face in his line, he is looking off to the side, so I'm not sure if it's meant like he is talking to the other turtles or the neutrinos or something, but I marked them both down as 4th Wall Breaking moments.)

3:35 Shredder: "Excellent! Once inside the mento-neutralizer, those turtles will become mindless zombies!" *looks at camera* "Nothing personal."

9:49 Leonardo: "Surrender Shredder, or face the consequences of your actions!" Michelangelo: "Don'tcha just love it when he talks like that?"

1:14 They aren't eating any pizza, but Leo and Mikey are in the grocery store and Leo says..."Come on, Michelangelo! Think healthy for a change! You had Peanut Butter & Jelly on you're pizza last night!" Then Mikey replies with..."No way, bud! I had Chocolate Chips and Caramel Fudge."

21:20 Anchovies smuthered in Gazai Leafs

What does this lifeless list got to do with the DVDs?

[gobo]

Same thing his season 1 breakdown list did. This thread is where we gave him ideas on what to look for is his full series marathon. I suppose he should have made a new thread for them though.

I'm pretty sure season six of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air came out not too long ago so that series got a proper DVD release.
