The Remnants of My Laserdisc Collection - Part 6: Amazing Stories and Family Dog

http://www.zaranyzerak.com

This time around we take a look at a few gems in my collection that still have yet to make their way to DVD... Specifically, the Amazing Stories collection (I know Season 1 was released on DVD, but the LD set has several Season 2 episodes that aren't on that set) and the Complete Series of the short-lived animated series, Family Dog!

I loved amazing stories, when i was a littl'en there so many stories i remember from it...wasn't there a movie? great vid :D

[Zaranyzerak]

@DavidPrime83 Nope, no movie. Just 2 seasons, 45 episodes total. Several of the episodes were double-length (so 45 minutes instead of 23). Would be nice if they'd put the second season out on DVD...

Hey Sean, can you name me some other Unversal series that haven't been released by them yet? I'm curious, cause here in Brazil Universal is being hated for not releasing their movies in Blu-ray. And now that they are finally releasing some, they are coming slashed, with discs lacking and all. A shame.

[Zaranyzerak]

@felipefonsecaps Season 2 of ExoSquad is the big one I'm still waiting for... And the Back to the Future Animated Series.

Hey Sean, just thought I'd let you know I blame you for my new LaserDisc obsession. But seriously, it's kind of a neat novelty hobby. You can pick up a lot of great titles for reasonable prices on eBay. For some reason I like old tech. I also own one of those Panasonic SuperDisk digital cameras. Go figure.

Mirror Mirror was the creepiest one of those stories back then

[RazMansReality]

Believe it or not I too actually loved Family Dog but had no idea until now that it started on Amazing Stories very cool!

nice lazer disk update. Your collection alot cooler and worth alot more money then my stuff is worse. 1/100 to 10% of my videos are useless vhs tapes. I recently got rebith of mothra 1 and  2 in dvd but still have not should the vhs tapes because of the conditon there in I probably wouldn't get a fair price for them there probably worth like 15 to 40$ dollars each becaise the books conditon is so good.

I was surprised to see you do not have Star Wars LD's in your collection. Someone else on You Tube must have had them.

[THEBLACKBELT]

Holy crap!! When I saw your caption about the Kevin Costner & Keifer Sutherland, I had flashback. Wasn't the whole episode on a World war II fighter plane?? I remember seeing that as a child, And never remembered what I was watching. Thanks!!

Amazing Stories isn't complete in America however both seasons were released in Germany and Japan. They come in both English and German Dubbing as well so that's a plus. Just need a DVD Player to play Region 2 DVDs. I believe it's 11 Single DVDs or a Box set.

Going a little Wikipedia check it states that Netflix is now streaming the episodes. Huh look at that. Nice.

@Zaranyzerak Of course. I just wanted to correc t the mistakes mentioned on the video that's all. You should find all 13 episodes about on YouTube, if you want to take a trip down memory lane. Now if you'll excues me I'll be taking my Super Dimension Fortress and do a space fold back in time to save Neil Patrick Harris' career and kick convince Charlie Adler not to play a jerk like Jammit.....damn I forgot you can only travel in space...curse you Macross! :D
