Magnum PI season 3 and 4 for $9 each

#1 Post by Buck »

Best Buy, this week, from $45 down to $9 each.

Have not played them yet, can't say quality is good or bad, but price is very good! If they make it blu ray I will be happier, in widescreen of course from original prints to show more detail.

I ask, what season better? 3 or 4? Which one will you buy for $9?

$9? :shock:

Wow!

Which season? 3 & 4 are the "golden years" of the show. You can't go wrong with either one! And I can't pick one over the other. Get 'em both! ;)

I agree, for $9 each you should buy them both. I doubt you will ever find a better price.

I did not know what episodes are included, so I am happy to find one of my favorites.

I love The Arrow That is Not Aimed. I think it is one of the better episodes that is overshadowed by other great episodes. It introduced me to Hara-Kiri and the japanese honor code. I love the friendship that Magnum forms with the samuri.

We have the entire 8 seasons box for less than US$ 55,-- :shock:

That's what I have been paying for each season when they finally have been available on DVD

I agree. You should jump on both seasons for that price!

Amazon's currently offering seasons 2-4 for $15.99 each. The one optimistic bone in my body hopes that's because those seasons are going cheap because Universal will reconfigure subsequent releases into normally-functioning, single-disc sets! :lol:

Can you believe it? "Did You See the Sunrise?" won't play...skips around...gets stuck....Only Ep I've found with problems so far. "Black on White" and "Home From the Sea" play fine. Bright side - only $9.

Try another player. I find some like the double sided discs more than others.

You were absolutely correct!! Took it to another room and it never missed a beat. Still a great episode....I love watching these things with my kids.....takes me back to when I watched them with my parents.

Season 7 is on sale at Amazon too. I already have seasons 1-3, so I ordered season 4 from Best Buy online. It's still on sale, but it's back-ordered.

Also, I don't think they'd release individual seasons on single-sided disks until they release the complete series. Universal did the same with Miami Vice.
