Now, I personally own this and like it. But, it must be said that the video and sound quality are not the best. Also, the production values are what you might expect from a 1950s TV show. If you can get past all that, it is genuinely entertaining in a campy sort of way.

I agree 100%. I have this series, they are campy and good fun. The acting isn't Basil Rathbone but it's not bad for a '50s TV series.

However, this appears to be the Mill Creek release. I've got several of their CD sets, and all of them have terrible video and audio transfer... kind of like that old gradeschool 16mm projector (with the sound that goes WWWOOOooohhhoooOOOooohhh...) and then re-recorded on an '80s vintage VHS camcorder, so the blacks are just fuzzy gray and not really black, and the whites are washed out. (I have since learned my lesson. When I'm looking at a DVD catalog, and I see Mill Creek, I just pass over that product and move on...)

It would be greatly preferable to find these same TV shows transferred by anyone else. But if you're just looking for cheap, and don't care about technical quality, then buy this Mill Creek collection. Pretend it's 1956, and you're watching these on a 7" black-and-white TV, and it won't hurt as much.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
