A while back we had a thread about TvonDvd releases we'd like to see and I listed a definitive box set of The Twilight Zone would be what I'd kill to see. Aparrantly Image was listening.

From The Digital Bits:

Morning, everyone! Congrats to you Sox fans on your team staying alive for at least one more match-up with the Yankees. Some pretty damn good baseball last night, I'll tell you.

We've got a bunch of new DVD announcements to cover today. First up, Image Entertainment has announced that it will release The Twilight Zone: The Definitive Edition - Season 1 on 12/28 (SRP $119.99). This 6-disc set will include all 36 episodes mastered from new high-definition transfers using the original camera negatives, audio in the original mono, audio commentaries (by Earl Holliman, Martin Landau, Rod Taylor, Martin Milner, Kevin McCarthy, Ted Post and William Self), vintage audio "recollections" (with Burgess Meredith, Douglas Heyes, Richard Bare, Buck Houghton, Anne Francis and Richard Masterson), Rod Sterling audio lectures from Sherwood Oaks College, isolated music scores (featuring the work of Bernard Herrman, Jerry Goldsmith and more), Rod Serling's promos for "next week's show", the original unaired pilot episode (Where Is Everybody?) featuring Serling's network pitch, a rare Serling blooper, the 466-page Twilight Zone Companion book by Marc Scott Zicree and more! Is that an amazing list of extras for this set or what?

All I can say is YES!

I'm glad I avoided buying those 'collections' they released a few years ago, I'd be pretty pissed if I had.

Umm, is this the same Image Entertainment as this?

Have they ever done anything worth buying? I've been waiting for good season sets of the Twilight Zone forever, but the emphasis is on good. Why does them being involved make this release a good thing? Do they have any chance of not screwing this up?

They used to do some pretty rotten dvds, but it seems they they are trying harder now based off of stuff like the recent Milestone dvd's.

Well that's encouraging. I guess if they've been around this long they have to have learned something from their mistakes...

Well, congrats Dalek on your new career as a psychic.

I'm glad I didn't have money for the last ones, now will I have money for the new ones? Well, you're the psychic. Anyways, sounds good to me. Though I will be holding on to my disc of the lost episodes of the Twilight Zone.
