A Great Show, Jan 13 2012

This review is from: TV Drama: State Trooper..... (DVD)
I wasn't born until late 1958, so I have no recollection of this show when it aired, nor have I ever seen it in syndication at any time. In fact, I never even knew who Rod Cameron was until I ordered this show. It sounded interesting and since my sister has lived in western Nevada since the early 70's, I do have some knowledge of the area in which a lot of scenes are filmed. When I bought Season 1, I was shocked at just how fast I zoomed through the 39 (I believe) episodes. I looked online at the history of the show to see that there were two seasons after the initial one, so I tracked down Season 2 and 3 and have enjoyed them just the same.First, the quality of the video on this two season set is par with the first one and is Average to Good. There are some drops in audio at times but nothing to distract from enjoying the episodes. I've read in the other review here that there was some trimming of the episodes and I do remember seeing some fades at certain points, but there has never been anything to distract, nor make me believe that the story content was ruined. The stories range from really great to just mediocre, but what I find compelling about this show is that each story always holds my attention, even though the outcome may be a letdown, I'm always satisfied. The acting is also much better than I expected and from time to time there is a familiar face that shows up in an episode.
Overall, if you like classic television and like shows that are kind of "off the wall" or not too well known, and you like a Dragnet-esque type of show, I highly recommend "State Trooper".
On the heels of finishing this set, I ordered Rod Cameron's "Coronado 9" series that followed this one in 1960, in hopes that I get just as much enjoyment.

State Trooper great TV serie., Feb 6 2012

This review is from: TV Drama: State Trooper..... (DVD)
Rod Cameron is one of my favorite western stars beside of Randolph Scott, Joel McCrea,Ben Johnson and John Wayne. Despite starring in other movie genres (drama, policial, adventure and even comedy and musical) was in the western that was his body of work and his greatest popularity. The series "State Trooper" made for TV was the most popular of the three which he starred, the others were "City Detective" and "Coronado 9", because it is a mix of western and policial. Besides the always remarkable presence of Rod Cameron other actors, who later gained fame, are featured in each episode such as Lee Van Cleef, De Forrest Kelley, Doug McClure, Craig Stevens, Claude Akins, Michael London, Carolyn Jones, Amanda Blake and Mike Connors and many others. All 108 episodes maintains the same level of quality. My rating is five stars.

STATE TROOPER SEASON 2, 3 STILL TRIMMING THE PRODUCT, Jan 11 2012

This review is from: TV Drama: State Trooper..... (DVD)
I HAVE PURCHASED QUITE A FEW OF TIMELESS MEDIA PRODUCTS AND STILL HAVE THE SAME COMPLAINT, ALTHOUGH THE PICTURE AND SOUND QUALITY ON THIS SET IS GOOD , THEY CONTINUE TO TRIM AT LEAST 2 MINUTES FROM EACH EPISODE, THEY ORIGINALLY RUN 25 TO 26 MINUTES AND THESE ARE DOWN TO 24 AND ONE HALF MINUTES.EITHER THEY CUT THE INTRO WITH ROD CAMERON STARTING THE SHOW, OR A QUICK FADE AT 13 MIN THE COMMERCIAL BREAK, AND A TRIMMING AT THE END OF THE EPISODE WITHOUT ROD CAMERON SAYING SEE YOU NEXT WEEK, AND THE END CREDITS END ABRUPTLY. I HAVE A FEW ON 16 MM FILM COMPLETE.
I FEEL TO ALL CUSTOMERS, THAT TIMELESS MEDIA SHOULD BE ABLE TO STOP CROWDING A DVD WITH 10 EPS TO MAKE 6 DVDS WHEN FOR A FEW MORE DVDS THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO LEAVE THE SHOWS INTACT. THE WORST SET IS M-SQUAD, MY FAVORITE.
I SORRY FOR IF I AM SLAMMING TIMELESS MEDIA, BUT DO IT PROFESSIONALLY. I THINK THERE ARE OTHER CUSTOMERS THAT WILL AGREE WITH ME. I HOPE IN THE FUTURE THEY WILL READ THESE COMMENTS AND REALIZE FOR THE PRICE , THEY CAN DO IT RIGHT.
MILL CREEK CAN PUT AN ENTIRE SERIES OUT FOR HALF THE COST AND ALL IS COMPLETE WITH THERE'S. THANK YOU FOR VIEWING MY COMMENTS B. BERTRAND
