Any way the ABC cut can be recreated using the DC in widescreen?

So I just found out that the season 5 intro (the rock & roll intro) has about 2 seconds of footage missing from the clouds part on every episode. Can't believe this isn't on YouTube or at Al's Place. Anyone have this intro from tv they can share with me so I can restore the s5 episodes?

I'm also going to restore the leap ins so they actually reference the next 'new' episode. I guess the dvd's use the leap ins that connect to a rerun as originally aired on NBC, but this makes no sence on DVD. The DVD versions will be included as extras. I'm getting the leap ins from Al's Place, unless I find a better source.

I just signed up for a Hulu Plus free week trial so I can get the season 4 music. So does anyone know what scenes have the 'missing' music in Season 4? I hope the episodes didn't change since the were first on Hulu, I mean they do still have NBC logos on them. I only watched "The Leap Back" so far, but I didn't hear "Is you is or is you ain't my baby". I hope I just missed it, but does anyone know where I should listen for it at? The end credits seemed like it should be there maybe, but I'm not sure. It may have been in the background somwhere I suppose. If anyone knows anything about the song placement in the other 8 episodes as well, that would be great too.

Somewhat..

I think one of the really sad ones is Northern Exposure.

Some really interesting music was unapologetically replaced.  Be nice to see that restored some how.

Amen. There is a fellow in Canada who sold DVD-r captures containing full music. It was apparently syndicated on his local tv long ago without any edits. The disc set was priced @ $150 last time I hunted him down. I was hoping they would have been liberated by now, but no-go.:(

 I am actually working my way through Northern Exposure now. I have a set of tvrips with original music but the video quality is so bad it makes me sad :( 

They are taken from UK tv so it's not a rip of the Canadian guys set.

Would also like to see it 'liberated'.

 Of course combining the "good" audio from the rips with the good video from the DVDs would fix that.

So I just got season 1 of ALF. I guess all of the US versions are cut. I hear in Germany MOST of the episodes are uncut. Anyone know of a source which has comparisions between the cut syndicated US version and the tv versions and German versions? I'd be willing to give this a shot as correcting these as well

.

I'm working on fixing Quantum Leap and SMB Super Show.

Sounds great! Look forward to it!

Sounds awesome! Seems like the ULTIMATE A New Hope version now! Can't wait.

I can help too if you want to PM the links. I'm doing something similar with Super Mario Bros. Super Show.

I think I can do this. I also did something like this with Street Fighter II a few years back

Anyone have season 4 from Hulu?

 Why? What is the problem with those links? Mediafire, YouTube, same thing, right?

OK! So I found my tape with Texas Tea and Treasure of the Sierra Brooklyn. Unfortunately, they are recorded in SLP and Sierra cuts out shortly after the Zelda cartoon ends, due to the tape running out during recording. I currently don't have a way to capture the VHS, but here is a 20 second clip of Sierra from my cell phone, just to prove it's real:

Keep an eye on my other YouTube channel, SMBSS Restored: Legend of Zelda Fridays (Not affiliated with SMBSS Restored) for the 13 Zelda episodes restored as close as possible to how they originally aired.

So I found this on ebay Australia:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/THE-SUPER-MARIO-BROS-SUPER-SHOW-Complete-Series-First-Season-1-New-Sealed-R4-/141036749484?

It seems to contain ALL of the Mario cartoons and live-action segments, just missing the Zelda cartoons. I think it came out last year. I can't find any reviews or specs of the set anywhere besides this guy's eBay listing. Does anyone have this set? $60 shipped is a lot to pay for just 10 minutes of footage I don't have (part of Sierra Brooklyn and The Magic Love), but if I can know for 100% certainty that all of those lost segments (especially those last two I mentioned) are on this six disc set, I will bite the bullet.

What if Gary Kurtz himself made a suggestion or two, would they be ignored?

Why would buying something be against any rules?

I hope so! I'm gonna buy the official Butch Mario VHS to get Magic's Magic in the best possible quality.

That's pretty sweet! I have Texas Tea on recorded from TV, so the actual Zelda preview can be grabbed from that. It's on the same six hour tape with Sierra Brooklyn. I really need to get those transferred!

Hmm. I'll have to compare those further. My email address is thmarioxb@gmail.com

Yeah, I'll update the first post.

You know, I re-checked my Tutti Fruiti episodes, and I forgot that I did the same thing you did. I synced the English audio to the subtitle free video, but I never checked to see if it stayed in sync. It didn't. I will mess around with them some more, and I should be able to create both versions with English audio and no subs. I was thinking for the "Do the Mario" part, maybe I can use the audio from Slimebusters or something? Shouldn't be to noticable if I do it right. The only difference I noticed so far was the cartoon Mario head that flies around. It's a bit different in each version, the way it flies around.

Also, not sure about Magic Johnson. Could be him, could be Blackstone. Could be something else too I suppose.

I have some old avi's of the zelda series, I'll check to see if they have the live action bits.

 How's that going? By the way, there's more Mario stuff that is missing. The Do the Mario clip from Tutti Frutti Mario in English. And the bumpers from Slime Busters, Magic's Magic, and Day of the Orphan. Zelda previews for Texas Tea aren't online. And Tutti Frutti Oh Mario is available in English, but not Tutti Frutti Mario. George Washington was recently uploaded in English. I can just hear Fluttershy saying yay

Awesome about George Washington Slept Here! I haven't watched the whole thing yet (I skimmed thru it), but it seems to be missing the Zelda preview. The bumpers I'm not too worried about, and I figure the Zelda previews can be re-created using that week's Zelda episode and comparing the footage used from the other previews of the week, as long as the intro to the Zelda preview is there. The bumpers can be replaced with the "generic" bumpers used on the later episodes. I have the Zelda preview for Day of the Orphan in English. I also have Tutti Frutti Mario and Tutti Frutti Oh Mario both in English (without subtitles) on my computer at home.

I have a VHS tape with the complete Texas Tea and almost complete "Treasure of the Sierra Brooklyn" (the tape ran out near the end...). I need to clean out my garage to find it (and get a VCR and a way to transfer tapes).

I think most (all?) of the music from the cartoons can be found online, so the main one missing now is the other Magic Johnson segment, "The Magic Love".

Awesome! Yeah, go ahead and upload what you found. Thanks!

There were a few:

Apparently, Warner gave up on this idea, so we’ll probably never see a 1980s, 1990s or 2000s collection, which is a shame. To collect EVERYTHING Charlie Brown/ Snoopy/ Peanuts on DVD in the USA in as-aired order, (not counting documentaries/ stage musicals, etc) you need these (from Warner Bros unless noted otherwise):

Peanuts 1960s Collection
Peanuts 1970s Collection Vol. 1
Peanuts 1970s Collection Vol. 2

Peanuts: Emmy Honored Collection (contains 9 episodes not in the decade releases and 2 duplicates, see below)
You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown
Happiness is a Warm Blanket, Charlie Brown
The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Show: The Complete Series (MOD on DVD-r)
This is America, Charlie Brown (WB version, as Paramount version is missing a scene)
Peanuts Double Feature (first two movies on two DVDs, Paramount)
Race For Your Life, Charlie Brown (Paramount)
Bon Voyage, Charlie Brown (And Don’t Come Back!!) (Paramount)
Peanuts Motion Comics (MOD on DVD-r)
The Peanuts Movie

All of the other releases are a hodge-podge of one or two episodes out-of-airing order, most of which are fully or partially duplicated in the above.

My goal is to collect all of the other episodes and movies, including everything not yet on DVD, and create my own aired-order collections, which would continue the decade sets. To break these down, they would contain these animated specials, in this order: (taken from NTSC R1 DVDs if available. If not released on DVD, source is listed):

Peanuts 1970s Movie Collection:

Disc 1 (Retail DVD):

• A Boy Named Charlie Brown (1969)

Disc 2 (Retail DVD):

• He’s a Bully, Charlie Brown (2006)

Disc 3 (Retail DVD):

• Happiness is a Warm Blanket, Charlie Brown (2011)
• Various bonus features

These would all have custom menus and cover art created by me to match the retail 1960s and 1970s collections. Once complete and with some custom covers, your collection would look like this:

Peanuts 1960s Collection (retail)
Peanuts 1970s Movie Collection (retail)
Peanuts 1970s Collection Vol. 1 (retail)
Peanuts 1970s Collection Vol. 2 (retail)
Peanuts 1980s Collection Vol. 1
Peanuts 1980s Movie Collection (retail)
Peanuts 1980s Collection Vol. 2
Peanuts 1980s: The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Show (retail)
Peanuts 1980s: This is America, Charlie Brown (retail)
Peanuts 1990s Collection (2 discs)
Peanuts 2000s Collection (3 discs)
Peanuts Motion Comics
The Peanuts Movie

The collections would also contain all of the bonus features from the single disc releases (which were not carried over to the decade sets):

The Making of A Charlie Brown Christmas (2001)
A Christmas Miracle: The Making of A Charlie Brown Christmas (2008)
We Need a Blockbuster, Charlie Brown
Snoopy’s Home Ice: The Story of the Redwood Empire Ice Arena
The Polls Don’t Lie: The Making of You’re Not Elected, Charlie Brown
Popcorn and Jellybeans: Making a Thanksgiving Classic
In Full Bloom: Peanuts at Easter
Unlucky in Love: An Unrequited Love Story
Dust Yourself Off and Pick Yourself Up, Charlie Brown
Together Again: A Peanuts Voice-cast Reunion
An Enduring Classic: Peanuts Creator Charles Shultz
Sibling Rivalry: Growing Up Van Pelt
plus the bonus features on the unchanged retail DVDs

In addition to the above, in order to legally own these collections, you would need to own these WB NTSC R1 DVDs (listed with what was used from each in parenthesis):

A Charlie Brown Valentine (A Charlie Brown Valentine)
Charlie Brown’s Christmas Tales (Charlie Brown’s Christmas Tales)
Snoopy’s Reunion Deluxe Edition (Snoopy’s Reunion, Together Again documentary)
I Want A Dog For Christmas, Charlie Brown Deluxe Edition (Happy New Year; I Want A Dog For Christmas, Sibling Rivalry documentary)
Happiness is Peanuts: Go Snoopy Go! (It’s Spring Training)
A Charlie Brown Christmas Deluxe Edition (It’s Christmastime Again; A Christmas Miracle documentary)
Happiness is Peanuts: Team Snoopy (Lucy Must Be Traded)
He’s a Bully, Charlie Brown (He’s a Bully)

For documentaries only, these were used:

He’s Your Dog, Charlie Brown Deluxe Edition (Snoopy’s Home Ice: The Story of the Redwood Empire Ice Arena)
It’s The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown Deluxe Edition (We Need a Blockbuster, Charlie Brown)
You’re Not Elected, Charlie Brown Deluxe Edition (The Polls Don’t Lie: The Making of You’re Not Elected, Charlie Brown)
A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving Deluxe Edition (Popcorn and Jellybeans: Making a Thanksgiving Classic)
Be My Valentine, Charlie Brown Deluxe Edition (Unlucky in Love: An Unrequited Love Story)
It’s the Easter Beagle, Charlie Brown (In Full Bloom: Peanuts at Easter)
You’re a Good Sport, Charlie Brown (Dust Yourself Off and Pick Yourself Up, Charlie Brown)

Peanuts: Emmy Honored Collection is a two disc set which contains the following: She’s a Good Skate, Charlie Brown; Life Is a Circus, Charlie Brown; It’s Magic, Charlie Brown; Someday You’ll Find Her, Charlie Brown; Is This Goodbye, Charlie Brown?; What Have We Learned, Charlie Brown?; It’s Flashbeagle, Charlie Brown; Snoopy’s Getting Married, Charlie Brown; Why, Charlie Brown, Why? as well as two specials from the 1970s Vol 2 set: You’re a Good Sport, Charlie Brown and You’re the Greatest, Charlie Brown.

Everything else is from out-of-region and out-of-print DVDs, VHSs and one Video CD. I used the Charlie Brown and Snoopy Show six disc set from Australia to obtain the specials A Charlie Brown Celebration, It’s an Adventure, Charlie Brown, and Snoopy!!! The Musical as they are bonus features on the set, which have not been released on NTSC DVD. It’s The Pied Piper, Charlie Brown is an OOP Paramount DVD. I chopped off the Paramount open/ ending logos to match everything else, and it also contains the documentary An Enduring Classic. The OOPs Paramount version of I Want a Dog for Christmas, Charlie Brown contains The Making of A Charlie Brown Christmas from 2001.

This project will include only the English audio and no subtitles. Since not much is changed from the retail DVDs, except the ordering of the specials, I will do this in a manner how I did “Backstroke of the West”, meaning I supply the menus and the rare material, as well as instructions for ripping the rest yourself.

Bumping my old thread here... I now have DVDs of both movies I made from HD mkv's I downloaded, I think from the Spleen. My next project is to continue the Peanuts 1960s and 1970s collections, since Warner gave up on that. So that would be 1980s Collection Vol 1 and 2, 1990s Collection and 2000s Collection, complete with VHS only specials yet to make it to DVD.

Oh well. It should still be helpful. The only live action segments still needed are "The Magic Love" and the 2nd half of "Sierra Brooklyn".

That sounds awesome!!

I wish I had all of those. I don't have The Magic Love. Sierra Brooklyn is missing the last 2 mins or so and needs to be transferred from VHS. I will get to it very soon.
