Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought this 4-Disc DVD set on another website. I was happy at first because there were about 6 or 7 episodes of GANGBUSTERS that I didn't have on DVD. Plus I had no episodes of THE MEDIC period on DVD.
I watched both DVD's of GANGBUSTERS as well as THE MEDIC. The picture and sound had been digitally redone and were better than expected considering these shows were made in the early 1950's.
What aggravated me was that this DVD company edited out one of the best parts of GANGBUSTERS on all the episodes on this collection. They edited out the sequence in which the guest police officer each week would show a certain felon being wanted by the police which they called, "A clue".
I was VERY disappointed at this as it was one of the reasons I bought the DVD set in the first place. Also they edited out the commericals which I also was hoping would have been included. Another DVD company put out GANGBUSTERS on a 2-DVD set WITH the "clue" segment included.
If this part of the show being left out doesn't bother you then go ahead and get the DVD set of these really cool 1950's shows.
It's just that when I buy something I'd like the complete show, unedited.

GANG BUSTERSGang Busters made its start--and its mark--on the radio waves in 1936, later becoming a highly-rated television show. Acclaimed by audiences nationwide, Gang Busters was broadcast for twenty-one consecutive years until 1957 when it finally went off the air. Show ideas for both the radio and television series were taken from actual police and FBI files and featured some of America's most notorious criminals like John Dillinger and the Barker gang. The popular radio show that became a landmark television series was one of the earliest "cop-dramas" ever made. With its violent, gritty realism, the series is credited with paving the way for today's law enforcement reality shows. First in its genre, this exciting series promises interesting facts about real-life criminals and their devious crimes, plus plenty of action and suspense! FEATURING 12 EPISODESBoilat Fiaschetti; Alvin Karpis; Mendoro; Quirley Case; The Dennis Case; The Noble Case; The O'Dell-Griffin Case; The Phantom; Unholy Three; Van Meter; Dillinger; The Lawrence CaseMEDICMaking its TV debut in 1954, Medic was one of the first medical dramas to appear on American television. Documenting the lives of a group of doctors, the show is unflinching in its depiction of real-world medical cases and the often gruesome events doctors face on a daily basis. Not only that, it also portrays the strain that the medical profession places on doctors' shoulders, schedules, and more importantly, their families. Notably, each episode of Medic is introduced by Doctor Konrad Styner (Richard Boone) and is dedicated to those who work in the field of medicine.
