1 Defect but a great product! Dogfights, Season 2 is a great series! The only problem I had is on disc 5. In the first episode on the disc (Supersonic); the historian, Barrett Tillman, is speaking near the end of the episode when it abruptly ends with him in mid-sentence! I thought perhaps it was a defect in the one series that I had received so I sent for another set and it had the same flaw. I'm assuming every set has the same defect. It is obviously an oversight in the original editing by The History Channel.
Great show, some production errors Very happy I bought this DVD pack. As an absolute nut for air combat and computer graphics, these shows are just great. BUT -- I have only watched 4 episodes so far and have already come across a really bad editing issue, the "Supersonic" episode ends abruptly in the middle of an avaition historian's sentence. It seemed very close to the end of the episode anyways but... Not too much to ask to have the entire episode on my DVDs that I bought is it? ;).
History Channel - Dogfights What a great series. I am constantly amazed at the exploits of some of our true Ace Pilots. Season 1 got me totally hooked and season two is even better. I highly recommend this collection if you are or know any history/war buffs. I wish the price was a little lower but, then, I always wish that.
I'm Rating the DVD set you will receive - not the show on TV Great show but...
NO closed captioning again. History Channel website claims it does. So, if you are wondering - the DVDs are not captioned.
There are format errors - such as episodes ending in mid sentence.
Seems to have been rushed into production.
Again - great show - substandard DVD release.
FYI
Greatest aviation dogfight documentary ever. Dogfights Season Two was every bit as exciting, thoughtful and well produced as Season One. Filled with many great interviews with actual participants in much of the action being documented, coupled with the "in the cockpit" feel of the show, there is no other documentary on the subject of dogfighting quite like it. Why the History Channel would cancel the best, most exciting and informative show they've ever produced at the peak of its popularity is still a mystery. Don't miss out on a chance to own this show on DVD while it is in print.
This DVD set contains all seventeen episodes from Season Two. Here's a list of episode titles: Kamikaze Jet vs. Jet Thunderbolt Gun Kills of Vietnam Desert Aces The First Dogfighters Luftwaffe's Deadliest Mission No Room for Error Night Fighters The Bloodiest Day P-51 Mustang Dogfights of Desert Storm Tuskegee Airmen MiG Killers of the Midway Supersonic Death of the Luftwaffe Secret Weapons
