Night Court : Current price of "Night Court" on DVD is ridiculous

Current price of "Night Court" on DVD is ridiculous

231.16.

If you want all 9 seasons of Night Court right now, that's what you'll pay on Amazon.

I love this old show, but that's an absurd price. You can get all eight seasons of Barney Miller for just over $100. Crazily enough, if you buy the seasons of Scrubs(nine seasons) individually, you'll pay under 100, whereas their box set is around 110. Eleven seasons of MASH plus the original movie for under 164.

Even the comparably measurable, and currently more popular How I Met Your Mother is going at 161 dollars for nine seasons.

While the show is adored by some, I know, realistically, there can not be this level of demand for Night Court to command that kind of price.

There isn't that much demand.

Seasons 4-9 are sold as "made on demand". The MSRP is the same, but the quality of the discs is lower, and the discs won't always play on every player they're put into.

I broke down and bought these seasons a few months ago. I'm so glad I did because I was missing this show so much. I don't think the quality is bad at all. I compared it to Shouts The Facts of Life Complete Series set and with this one seasons 6 - 9 are so grainy. Warner at least provided good picture quality on their sets. I wish The Facts of Life could have been this lucky. As for playing on every player, I don't know if the ones I bought do. I ripped them on my computer and formatted the episodes as MP4 files for my portable USB hard drive. I watch all my shows this way so I don't have to mess with discs on my Blu Ray player.

Re: Current price of "Night Court" on DVD is ridiculous

here is how amazon sticks it to you.

I bought seasons 3 - 9 but not all at once.

to me, since I am a Christine girl, seasons 1 and 2 were not worth it.

but when you average 25 dollars [per season, I guess you break even no matter what you do.

I grew up watching NC and the only show that equaled it funny-wise was Cheers. Now Cheers, they show non stop any time of day. But good luck finding NC on any channel. Isn't this was TVLand was designed for? Now there's MeTV but all they show is black and white crap no one watched when it came on 45 years ago. We live in an age where everybody knows someone with access to torrent sites and an ISP blocker/re-router who can find it and get it for you for free. No box set should be $200.

Night Court's currently running twice a day commercial-free on Encore Classic.

Re: Current price of 'Night Court' on DVD is ridiculous

My thoughts exactly I watch it on Encore classic it would be great to have this on DVD.

Re: Current price of 'Night Court' on DVD is ridiculous

I DVR shows to watch them when I want (and fast-forward through commercials when they're there).
The only problem is that my DVR cable box has a limited capacity.

Put a bigger hdd in your dvr

Re: Current price of "Night Court" on DVD is ridiculous

I agree. That's way too much money for a show that isn't even on actual DVD discs. I hope another company like Mill Creek or Shout gets rights to Night Court and releases a complete series set on actual DVD discs instead of DVD-R. I would like to add this to my collection someday.

Re: Current price of "Night Court" on DVD is ridiculous

Shout usually puts out good sets. Rhino, who I know used to put out very good boxed sets, would have been a preference for me, too.
