Inactive.User Posted December 29, 2017 Report Share Posted December 29, 2017 I would love a boxset with all episodes from all seasons of Home and Away on DVD and Blu-ray, may be even Blu-Ray 4k, with corrections and other things, I know this would be hard to do, but it would work and people would pay lot's of money. Neighbours did this with the first couple of seasons. Home and Away could release it per season if necessary, like a new season every 6 months or so, then just add every season once the new season starts. This would be edited together so we obviously don't have ads and we have Closing themes for all Episodes and Opening themes where applicable. They could also add special episodes and things which went on the cutting floor as part of original episodes where possible so we get to see things like Alf's 60th birthday episode as intended, and we get to see more old characters. I would love a few extra episodes explaining the past for characters or what happens after some of our favourites left the Bay. If necessary, they could release episodes together like Episode 4000/Alf's Birthday, iconic births, weddings, funerals/Deaths etc. Plus a few funny or heart-warming episodes, these would be in full if possible, with theme songs and all, these would have the bits that got cut put back in if possible.

Pierced Musie Posted December 29, 2017 Report Share Posted December 29, 2017 Too many episodes for DVD or bluray, so they would stop after a few volumes, stating lack of sales probably. The best they could do would be making it available to stream in all Countries, like google play/netflix/amazon. That would be awesome with all soaps!

It’d cost to much. With channel 7 having to negotiate licensing and paying production companies for the rights to early episodes. Wouldn’t be cost effective for channel 7. It’d be good if they could tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainTed84 Posted December 30, 2017 Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 7000 episodes of a TV show on DVD... far out... good luck with putting that together Channel 7 I would love for a Home and Away Boxset to be released but I just don't think it's likely to happen. I think that releasing each year on DVD is much more likely but even that would be a stretch to put around 220 episodes on 30 separate boxsets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexx Posted January 1, 2018 Report Share Posted January 1, 2018 The way forward is uploading to the internet and cashing in on the money the uploads would earn through advertising over time. Releasing box sets is a very old fashioned and expensive way to release the show now and probably wouldn't be worth it considering only a very small percentage of fans would purchase them.

Be warned, like with every soap, there'll be long stretches of crap to go through with that idea. If H&A started out bi-weekly then yeah, it could work.

Two eps that were already shown on TV and this special ep aside from City filming has nothing that couldn't have been shown in a regular ep. However, the Extras (cast interviews) salvage it somewhat. Hearts Divided seemed to be a better endeavour. It was one of the first DVDs I bought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
