Movie Reviews of Adam-12: Season Two
Movie Review: Great job Shout Factory! Too bad you guys didn't do season one!
Summary: 5 Stars
Very good release of Adam-12's second season. I can't believe that after three years season two has finally been released. Too bad Shout Factory didn't release season one. The release of season one by Universal had cheap double-sided discs that were full of problems. I had to return my season one set three times and I still have problems with the set that I ended up with. The transfers were good, but the discs themselves had many problems. Enough talk of season one. This is about season two, right? This is a handsomely packaged, four disc set. All single-sided discs housed in two thin slipcases. I had no problems with any of the discs. Thanks for the extras, but can't someone get Marty and Kent for any sort of commentary or interview? I'm not complaining, but since both guys are still around one would think they'd be asked to contribute something. The season itself is great and I thoroughly enjoyed every episode. This is the season Reed and his wife have their baby. The boys have lots of adventures and all of the episodes are good. Highly recommended! Hopefully it won't take another three years for season three.Movie Review: More Great Adam-12 Action
Summary: 5 Stars
Season Two of Adam-12 brings more of the great campy cop drama viewers have come to expect from Jack Webb.
This set is superior to the Season One set in that it uses single-sided discs and has a few bonus extras.
The acting, scripts and production values are fair (I rate them C, maybe C+) but, as with Season One, the camp value is high.
Have fun spotting how many different angles the same Universal backlot sets can be filmed from.
Enjoy the repeated stock footage shots of late-60's LA.
Count how many times Kent McCord picks up the two-way radio's microphone and says "One Adam-12 roger".
Be amazed about how creepy Bing Crosby's son Gary is as Officer Wells.
Wonder why every license plate starts with "Lincoln, X-Ray, Ida".
Anyway, I really liked this set and am looking forward to seeing Season Three.
Movie Review: Shows nicely cleaned up, extras GREAT!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
OK, now I'm wishing Shout Factory had done the Emergency! season DVDs, such as been my need for extras on them. Sigh. Here, though, I THOROUGHLY enjoyed the extras, especially the voice-overs comparing then and now. Much to my shock, I found out that some "mistakes" that I thought were mistakes in filming were really the way LAPD did things back then!! The historical slide shows were interesting, and the lack of scratches, "splooshes," and other yuckiness in the reproduction of the set is most appreciated too.
Unlike my usual DVD reviews, I can't comment on the quality of the closed captions because I don't have a cc chip, but, if they're of even half the quality of the workmanship of the rest of the set, they must be at least acceptable.
I can't wait for the rest of the seasons to get here!
Movie Review: Adam-12 Season Two
Summary: 5 Stars
Great TV show and my absolute favorite. This came us just before I went into the Army and then onto Vietnam, but I never forgot the series. I has always liked Jack Webb in anything and being and adopted member of the LAPD he had all the inside info on how the department ran and what invetigations he had access to. This inspired me to go onto a 28 year police career in upstate NY, retiring in 1999 as a Sergeant. Although I held ranks as an Investigator, SGT. LT and Chief of Police in two local departments. But I liked my supervisors job the best and that's what I went back to the last five years of my career. No regrets, it was my favorite rank just like Sgt. McDonald on the TV Series. Nick Donvito, Camillus, NY.Movie Review: Great classic show finally get season 2 release
Summary: 5 Stars
Im very jazzed that Shout! is releasing s2 of Adam12. Ive got both season 1 and 2 of Ironside and am very happy with those releases although I have to addmit to impatentally wait for Ironside S3 release. The sample video on Shout! website looks promising and the professional reviews of the release place it in solid A range. Adam 12 has been off the air for ota tv re runs in So Cal for years Im really looking forward to seen S2 again commeral free. Hopefully more Adam 12 season releases roll out soon and shout! will get on the stick and release s3 of Ironside too. PS Ironside fans go to shout! forums and post request for more Adam 12 and Ironside releases I Need More good class tv dvds to watch.
