FINALLY, Nash Bridges on DVD without Defects. Fabulous Script Writing, Great Scenery, Captivating Characters
Finally a remastered version of this series. I have refrained from ordering this VEI product in the past because of dismal reviews that VEI has had over the years, in producing faulty dvd's like this. Based on the positive reviews of most recent, it appeared that VEI finally got the message and released a dvd set that was generally free of defects/flaws in the transfer process from the master.So far, my wife and I have watched 6 discs involving the first two seasons, without a glitch.Obviously not as high a quality of image as a BluRay, but absolutely as good as you saw on in quality of image on televisions in the late 90's when this series started its 6 seasons. It is not grainy or faded at all. I would give the image quality an 8 in relation to new movie releases on standard dvd's. The only anomaly that we noticed is that the DVD's have been mastered to fit wider screen formats than were most prevalent back then , so they stretched the picture slightly, horizontally to fill today's flat screens. It is not overly done, but the characters exhibit a slight shortening and Nash's '71 Cuda is a bit wider on screen. Although noticed it does not detract from why we wanted a decent copy of the series...the fantastic entertainment in the story lines. And we are watching this with my 144" high def, 3D Epson projector, which is a mind blower, quality-wise. So on smaller screens the resolution will be even better than what we are witnessing is being about as good as being in the movie theater with our projection system. Don't hesitate to buy this series based on image quality. It is very good and consistent.The reason we love watching this captivating series is because Don and Cheech interact with a great cast of characters. We especially love the sidebar stories to crime fighting, which included many family interactions. This is some of Don's best work and far superior to the cold stereotype which he played in Miami Vice. His character, Nash, allows him to show an incredibly full range of personality behaviours all the way from tough cop to sensitive family man. He will suck you in with abandon, putting a smile on your face frequently. And the stories do not grow old or stale from one to the other. Each crime is cleverly different in its characteristics and each crime is generally solved within the episode. However, what endears one to the series is the on-going family story line, which ties it all together. Another great attribute of this series is superior script writing, with a LOT of humor thrown in and often delivered by Cheech Marin (of Cheech and Chong fame). Once we started watching this dvd set, it is hard to break away to even watch new movie offerings, etc, because this is so damned entertaining, We look at each other every night asking "Do you wanna watch so and so?" And instant mutual answer is "Nah, lets watch Nash". I am sure you will too, once you get started.Oh, and one last thing. No cursing necessary or needed to deliver all the punch it needs, which is hard to find in visual entertainment today. We are not prudes by any stretch of the imagination, but writers today seem incapable of making a point about anything without the "F" word and various others which prove that they have a poor command of the english language.

My wife is happy
My wife is a great fan of this series. We had been watching on Streaming but there were gaps in the episodes available, sometimes large ones. I decided to look for the series here on AMZ and found this. Price was right and we received yesterday and starting watching last night. Overall very happy, decent quality but one thing, these episodes are not HD but are SD and 4:3 format. Quality is very good otherwise and all episodes seem to be here.

Missing 10 minutes of season 2 "Deliverance" on the Blu-Ray version
I'm glad that the series is now available. I enjoyed watching the series when it was on TV, but appreciate it even more now. There is a stark contrast between the garbage that passes for entertainment now versus the great shows of the 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s. There are a few good programs on these days, but I find that I'm watching a lot of older series and movies these days.The Blu-Ray version of Nash Bridges is very good. I just wish that it wasn't missing 10 minutes of season 2 "Deliverance". I found a 10 minute Youtube video of the end of this episode, so I finally found out what the outcome was. A real oversight by the company that put this together to not check their work.

Nash Bridges Box set great quality!
All the episodes, uncut!it's in the original 4:3 aspect ratio, not the squished square,and not the stretched and cropped versions you see sometimes.It looks better then standard def, but not quite Hi def, basicallyjust like it did on Broadcast TV, but apparently upscaled just a bit.Perfect stereo sound.The only thing they missed was some kind, ANY kind of literaturelike and episode list and synopsis, or just a paper list of what ep ison what number disc. You get the cardboard cover, the nice plastic case,and the DVDs. thats it.I give it a 9.5 out of 10!Great sound and video quality, all the eps, and a nice box.

One of my favorite Shows
So far all the discs work and I love the show. I haven't been through the whole series yet, because I love so many shows that it's hard to keep up. It's got Don Johnson, Cheech Marin, Lucy Lou, the guy who played the mummy in the Mummy movies with Brenden Frasier, the girl who plays Taylor Von on She's All That, the lady who plays the evil watcher on that one episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and many more good actors and actresses.
