Description
| Product Description |
 |
| Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea was the brainchild of Writer/Producer/Director Irwin Allen... the "Master of Disaster."It ran on ABC 1964-1968 and was for its four years of some of the best and most exciting science fiction on TV at the time. The classic adventures aboard the "SSRN Seaview" will captivate you today, as much as they did in the 60s. Editorial Descriptions are usually submitted by the manufacturers, publishers and authors.

Author: Guest i like the quality of the transfer. video and audio are good and no a/v sync issues. however i had a problem with the dvds skipping on both my dvd players. i exchanged them and the replacement dvds also skipped. they didn't skip on the same place. the first one was on s1v1d2a and the replacement was on s1v1d3a.

Author: Guest Just wanted to report that I too am having trouble with the discs playing properly in my DVD player. The brightness fades in and out, and the picture occasionally freezes and jumps. I put the discs into my laptop, and they play fine. I've never had a problem playing other discs in my DVD player. I'm wondering if the reason is because these are double sided discs.

Author: Guest Just to let everyone know the true unaired version of the pilot is not included on the set , just the color version of the aired version with the early second season oppening titles stuck on , the actual unaired pilot does not have Werner ( col. Klink ) Klemperer at all in it , Theodore Marcuse is the head Enemy Dr Gamma through the unaired version , the first time we see him and the men at the table in enemy hq he says " Gentleman Admiral Nelson grows increasingly troublesome , he and his submarine must be removed " he then pushes the Seaview thats siting on the table and it flies off onto the floor , there are other differences with scenes , dialogue and music , its a possiblity that we may see it in a future set but not in set 1 or 2 of the first season , its too late for them to add it .
As far as hiss in the sound goes having watched most but not all the only real one is NOW WAY OUT it has one but the picture is stunning , some are not as nice as others example Fear Makers , Hail to the Chief , Ghost of Moby Dick are good but if you compare them to No Way Out , Hotline , Eleven Days to Zero , Magnus Beam you will see better contrast and clarity , why this is one can only speculate but even though the ones mentiones are not as good as the other mentioned you will not be disappointed .
I did see someone state the show looks dated but you must also remember it was supposed to be taking place between 1973-1983 or 1984 so it really fits into that time period and looks like its dated from then and anything in that time frame in reality could look outdated now but for the time it takes place its not .

Author: Guest I saw your review where you said you found a glitch in one of the "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea" discs. I bought my set on the day it was released last week. When I watched "The Fear-Makers" that night, I encountered a spot where the picture froze, then skipped back to an earlier scene. I returned the set the following day and got a new one. When I watched the same sequence in the same episode that night, I encountered more skips. I immediately went back to Best Buy, where I bought it, got a third set, had the scenes checked at the store (they played fine), and took the third set home. Up to now, I had played the disks on my table model DVD. I played the new disk on my recently purchased portable DVD player and the scene was fine. Yesterday, February 26, while watching "The Sky Is Falling" on the "B" side of disk 1, the audio died, the disk froze, then skipped forward to another frozen scene. I took the disk out, reinserted it, and skipped to the scene in question. I had to stop for awhile, then resumed the disk. This time the scenes in questions played fine with no malfunctions. I haven't played all the remaining disks in the set but I'm greatly disturbed. Returning them to the store did nothing to resolve the problem. The problem lays with the manufacturer. They should be notified. I was wondering if anyone else had had problems with this particular set. I waited a long time for "Voyage" to be issued on DVD and want the entire 110-episodes. Let me know what you think.

Author: Guest i'll just comment on the DVD quality its great! better then Fox's Lost in Space that has the annoying video interlace lines i do't see them here and unlike the lost in space DVDs Voyage has the ORG 1964 Fox logo tags at the end, i just wish Fox left the "brought to you by" tag on the end of the Beginning theme on each ep insted of muting it, but ya can't have everything.
