Well, the problem is that the market for physical media like DVD or Blu-ray has nearly completely collapsed, so hardly anyone is taking the risk now to put out an older, less than hugely popular series like MITM in this way. I guess all we can hope for are reasonably priced downloads in either 720p or 1080p quality.
On the other hand, I noticed that Fabulous Films, who also released MITM on DVD of course, just came up with a British version of the
Wonder Years deluxe box set, 26 discs for £ 80, which again amounts to about 100 euros. It includes no fewer than 23 hours of exclusive bonus features like cast interviews and outtakes, episode booklets, and all the original songs (there were very serious music rights issues there too, with songs by Jimi Hendrix, Byrds, Beach Boys, Stones, CCR, Simon & Garfunkel). Joe Cocker's take on the Beatles'
With A Little Help ... as the theme song is reinstated, and not some poor imitator like on Netflix. It is said that the transfers were all from the original masters too.
I don't know how well this is doing. I'm sure this is a long-awaited, first-rate release that should be huge in any discerning viewer's book, but perhaps it's a sign of lethargy and the changing times that I don't feel like buying it right now, because I own too much stuff already, and I wonder how many episodes I'm going to watch with all the other media I'd still look forward to enjoying one way or another.
