Back in mid-November came the exciting
announcement that
The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air - The Complete 1st Season was on-the-way for a
February 8th release...that's just a bit over a week away! With the street date approaching fast, we thought it was good to let you know about a small change in the set's configuration.
When we passed on the original info, we relayed Warner's description that these episodes would be "on 2 double-sided discs", and showed a package (you can see it very clearly in our previous news post) that is a "keepcase-style" box.
Now Warner is showing off a different configuration: as you can see below, the keepcase is gone and it will instead be a cardboard box sporting 4 single-sided DVDs instead. We were given no reason for the change, but from what we see all other aspects of the release are unchanged. Another title out on that date,
Murphy Brown - The Complete 1st Season, has undergone the same change.
Our thanks to reader Adam Linder for their help with this story. Here's the new art (or, more specifically, the same art on a different box):
