What was the reason for no extra's on season 2 set?
Can we exspect any extras on the remaining box sets?
Thanks in advance.
There will definatly be extras for season 4 as it was the last season of knight rider, but for season 3 nothing has been announced but its only the early stages so anything can happen!

More b-u-l-l-s-h-i-t: so, how come "Magnum, p.i." and "Miami Vice" have got their trailers/opening gambits, when "The A-Team" and "Knight Rider" haven't?

Why was the format different from the 1st box set? The presentation was more impressive for the first season than the box for the second, and they look inconsistent on the shelf. I suppose it was because of the number of double episodes or something, but it was a bit perplexing.
That said, great dvd's, great episodes, great fun, great buy! Thank you Universal!

Getting back to the original "commercial"...
We've seen promotional material from Universal UK, and this video doesn't look or feel anything like their other releases. No voiceovers, no graphics... Even if it's an "early cut", why is it nearly a minute long? It seems odd that they would do a full minute commercial, and even if they did, this video should be shorter to allow room for a 5-second "coming soon on DVD to a store near you" tag.
If I'm wrong, so be it. But everything about this video seems like it was created by a fan having fun with some clips.

Exactly, Michael - I've got my suspicions as well.

it was the 1st edit made, i couldnt upload anything with voice over or anything like that because my boss would know it has gone missing so uploaded the Bare advert with no voiceovers or anything else, hope that clears things up

"Airwolf" is just as popular as the other shows, commercial-wise. I remember in HMV at one time, it was either a DVD or VHS release, "Airwolf" ranked higher than "Knight Rider" and "The A-Team" for at least 2 weeks, here in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and I think Woolworths as well.
May I ask how you know the show isn't in high demand? What market research, if any, suggests this? I think you'll find that the set would sell remarkably well.

If anything should be changed on the Region 2 release, it's the photos on the back cover - they're from the Canadian 4th Season, which had a different cast.
Also, I still want the pre-opening teaser trailers present - the NTSC/PAL carry-on is no excuse - "Magnum, pi."'s trailers are intact, and so should "Airwolf's", otherwise, I'll invest in a multi-region Pioneer player, and buy the Region 1 set.
