Missing Something, Mar 2 2012

This review is from: NEW Tenth Year (DVD) (DVD)
Let me make it clear, straight up, that this is a review of the product, not of the show. As a huge Law & Order fan, I can say that the quality of these episodes is top-notch.
The product that NBC Universal/Universal Studios has put out though is another story.
I'm willing to ignore the lack of an episode list because I can just as easily get that online. Missing that doesn't really detract from the quality.
What I CANNOT and WILL NOT ignore is the absence of the crossover Law & Order SVU episode "Entitled - Part 1." The L&O Part 2 episode is present, but nowhere to be found is the important Part 1, DESPITE THE BACK COVER SAYING IT IS FEATURED!
When Season 9 came out, it took me a while to figure out where they had hidden the "Homicide" crossover episode. It was there, just very awkwardly placed. So before writing this review, I searched each of the five discs of Season 10 meticulously to see if I was missing something. I wasn't. It's nowhere to be found.
So why isn't it there? Copyright issues aren't a problem considering that it's the same production company. Season 1 of SVU is available on DVD, so DVD rights and issues shouldn't exist. I'm not as much of a fan of SVU, at least not enough to buy a season set just to get the one episode.
Am I sorry I bought the set? No. At Amazon's $24.99 price, it's still a steal for the quality of the episodes. But as far as I'm concerned, NBC Universal/Universal Studios owes me a disc with that SVU Episode on it.

Great episodes, but ..., Mar 16 2012

Season 10 contains many engrossing and very well-written episodes, but the packaging is a rip-off. It would have cost them next to nothing to include a list of episodes, but there is none. The episodes themselves rate five stars -- but the lousy packaging only one -- making an average of three stars.

They could have added an episode list, Mar 3 2012

As I stated in my review of Season 9 of Law and Order, the producer should have included an episode list as was the case for the DVDs with the first 8 seasons. They have repeated their omission with Season 10. I can obtain the list on line as I did with Season 9, but the producer should have had respect for the customer and just gone the "extra mile" and added one. Having said all that I do hope they release the rest of the Law and Order the greatest TV series ever on a year by year basis with or without and episode list as I will not buy the whole set since I own the first half + Season 14 already.
