This Review is for Friends Complete Series in 4K:
Friends Complete Series in 4K is pretty good, but for some strange reason my set was missing Disc 3 of Season 9! There were actually two copies of Disc 2 of Season 9 and both had the episodes that one would expect with Disc 2 on them!
My other complaint was that the holders for the discs aren’t very good, and it was hard to solidly put the discs back into the the disc holders! In fact many of the discs were loose inside the disc holders, because the center holders don’t grip the center of the discs strong enough that they keep on becoming loose!
Other than that for the most part the colors and sound of each episode are very good! I had the complete Blu-ray series, but I never opened it up so I couldn’t make a proper comparison of the 4K versus the Blu-rays, as I ended up giving the Blu-rays away as a gift after upgrading to the 4K complete series.
The oddest thing I found with the restoration and up-conversion of the video portion of the 4K’s is typically as a separation between each act and the start of each disc are images of the city of New York or the supposed exterior of the buildings where the Friends live. These openings appear not to be up-converted to 4K resolution, appearing to be only 480p at best.
Why Warner Bros. didn’t do a complete restoration of these parts of each episode confounds me! I also found in some of the earliest seasons including the Pilot episode that some of the background was more in focus than the actual Friends’ characters上海娱乐网. There’s one scene where an ornate green metal support of Central Perk is more in focus than the Friends’ characters sitting on the couch, which is the foreground of the scene, not the background, which this green pole is爱上海! I found this very odd!
I will have to go back to the original complete series DVD’s to see if the same problem exists some day…爱上海龙凤419
One thing I have to compliment Warner Bros. is the placement of each tab for each act, the opening title sequence and the end. One can quickly tab to the beginning of each title sequence, many of which varied within a season, the end of the title sequence, between both acts and the end sequence. The tabs were perfectly setup!
Sometimes I have found the tabs of other shows arranged in weird places like eight minute into an episode instead of right after the title sequence, which cause a person to either to fast forward from the beginning to get to the end of the title sequence of rewind even further back from the first tab.
Other than that, as I previously wrote the colors and audio are very good and worth the upgrade to 4K in my opinion despite the few shortcomings I found with the disc holders and having two copies of Disc 2 from Season 9!
PS. As of writing this I’ve not watched the Blu-ray disc with the Special Features…
