 Adventure goes sky-high with the "Terrors of the So. Pacific"Jul 12, 2007
By FranticInFresno
"Fresno14"
Baa Baa Black Sheep Volume 2 - This is the second half of season one.
Robert Conrad and company portray the fighter pilots of VMF214 stationed in the Solomon Islands during WWII. The action packed adventures included plenty of Corsair on Zero aerial action, both simulated and archive footage of the real thing.
Later seasons were renamed The Black Sheep Squadron.
This edition does include English SDH subtitles.
Special features are absent, not even a voice over.
The transfer quality is excellent with an aspect ratio of Full Frame 1.33 to 1.
The audio is English only in Dolby digital 2.0 Mono.
The box set includes 3 discs.
Disc 1
Love and War
The War Biz Warrior
Deadliest Enemy of All Part 1 & 2
Devil in the Slot
Disk 2
Five the Hard Way
Last Mission Over Sengai
Trouble at Fort Apache
Poor Little Lambs
W.A.S.P.S
Disc 3
Last One for Hutch
The Fastest Gun
The series is loosely based on the actual exploits of the late Col.Greg "Pappy" Boyington, credited with 28 "kills" during the war and winner of the Congressional Medal of Honor (CMH). A true American hero.
All in all, a fun testosterone romp.
Perhaps Universal will release Season 2 in one complete package next go around. And a voice over by one of the actors or producers would be a welcome edition.

 Baa Baa Black Sheep Vol. 2Aug 07, 2007
By Manuel Scheel
Along with other fans of this show, I'm glad that finally after a 2 year wait Vol. 2 was released on DVD.
I bought this title a few weeks ago and must say that even though I'm very happy to have this show on DVD I'm also a bit disappointed in this DVD release out of the following reasons:
No digital restoration of the picture (but I can live with that)
What bugs me the most is that 5 episodes were crammed on each of disc 1 and disc 2 but disc 3 only holds two episodes. I think they should have divided it evenly up into 4 episodes per disc that way the studio doesn't have to compress the episodes so much and have a better picture quality. This might be a point that should be taken under consideration if Universal plans to release Vol. 3 of this show on DVD.
No specials on the dvd set.
The show itself receives 5 stars, but the DVD release only 3 stars because of the reasons mentioned above.

Glad vol. 2 is outJul 03, 2007
By Chris D. Rasmussen
"Gadgethead"
..now lets have Season 2 so we can finely watch the whole series! I couldn't hardly wait to get this DVD open when it came today. I've always enjoyed this show and will hopefully get the final season SOON. Come on guys. You must have the rest all ready to make on DVD! :) I have the books too, but the show is great. Follows the real Pappy loosely, but hey, it's still fun to watch. The plot keeps moving and the action seans are well done. When firing the maching guns in the plane however, the real thing doesn't vibrate like on the screen. I think it just adds to the action. Keep the good TV shows like this one comming you guys. THANKS

NostalgiaMar 29, 2010
By S. Lacroix
The episodes are great. My only grief is that there is no third box available in the US but you can buy it in France. Can someone explain to me why is it possible to buy all the episodes with French subtitles but you can't buy the whole series without French subtitles? Is there stronger demand in France than in the US for this product?????

 TV show well doneDec 19, 2009
By Susan E. Blee
With 100's of channels and nothing on, my husband was so very happy to receive this TV series as a gift.
We are able to watch a good show without commercial interruption.
