    Lee Majors singing that sounds brutal will save that for last.

        I just couldn't stand it anymore. I took the dive and bought mine today. I'm afraid I'll miss out on something in the extras which I would never forgive myself for. Anyone know where these get shipped from?

                i'm guessing tho, it's coming international by dhl to hebron ky where it is then handed off to us postal. dhl only does international delivery and no longer does domestic. but you should get yours pretty quick bec you're in kentucky!

                    That is EXACTLY why I did it. You guys helped me get there and I am extremely grateful for the inside info. I don't see them packaging heavy extras when they get massed produced. Plus that footage of the package opened and seeing what everything looks (AND sounds) like is just irresistible. NOW it feels like Christmas is coming.

                      Ahh, it's not too bad but the songs are sappy and definitely dated.

                          Gotta get loose, 'cause lately,
                          This life is leavin' me cold.
                          Gotta vamoose, 'cause lately,
                          Time flies, but all I get is old.
                          Got to catch some slack.
                          I need a quiet place.
                          Got to not look back because,
                          I need some time to waste.

                            Got mine last Friday and spent most of the time previewing discs. I've decided to hold off watching episodes until the start of the year and make it a weekly Friday night ritual. I am however, going ahead and watching the extra features and interviews. Whoever wanted to know about Lee Major's interview, you'll be happy to know that the OSI Mission Debriefings, which are the exclusive interviews with Lee Majors, Richard Anderson, Martin Brooks, Kenny Johnson, and Harve Bennett are all 1 1/2 hours or 2 hours each. And they cover everything. So far, I've watched the interviews on Lee and Harve, and the extra features on seasons 1 & 2. I did watch the pilot with a friend and will watch whatever episodes a lady friend of mine wants to watch when she flies in this weekend.
                            But all in all, I am very happy with this set and look forward to many hours of viewing the Six Million Dollar Man. Thanks Universal and Time Life.
                            Cheers.

                              Ah... No thanks.

                              Actually it was the Jamie songs that were making me seriously consider gouging my ears out. Just when I thought I was over my misery after watching the 2 part season ender, I had to listen to another tune in each if the 2 part season opener episodes when she came back to life!

                                Gotta Get Loose has to be the absolute BEST song ever written and sung.

                                When I hear it I think of the old SNL sketch of Bill Murray as the nightclub guy --- NOTHING BUT STAAAAAR WARS
