complaint I just read about this dvd set
I just read a complaint that the music on this dvd sounds like a wobbly record.
Well, duh. Of course it sounds like a wobblyrecord. That's because the odiotic studio removed the intended original laughtrack from the dvd which was present on its original broadcasts.
If you paid any atterntion to laughtracks on other shows,like I have, you would notice that the music is always lowered when the laughs are louder and the music raised back up when the laughs die down. instead of remaining at the same volume.
Removing the intended laughtrack leaves you with hearing only the music volume going up and down like a wobbly record.
And awkward pauses where the laughs should be and actually were.
The original laughtracks should have been left in. Then the music would not sound like a wobbly record. It would sound like the music being drowned out by the audience laughing louder, as intended.
Shows should be released on dvd as they were originally broadcast.
Studios tamper with shows on dvd by colorizing black and white shows, replacing music with other music, removing laughtracks and removing intended subtitles.
They usually give some sort of cockamamie excuse for the first three of those, but I don't understand their reasoning for removing intended subtitles needed for following the plot as has happened on I Dream of Jeannie dvd season 1 episode 1 and season 2 episode 1, Buffy the Vampire Slayer dvd episodes, and other shows on dvd when those episodes always had subtritles on tv before because the producers of the shows intended those scenes to have subtitles in orser to follow the plot.
