THE RESTORATION

After nearly a decade of research and planning, this is a ground up restoration by Network’s award-winning in-house team working from the best available materials – from first generation 2-inch videotape masters to surviving negative and print film material, scanned in 2K. The wildly varying picture sources have been graded scene-by-scene and intensively cleaned up.

State of the art upscaling of Standard Definition videotape has been deployed with careful use of noise reduction for both video and film grain, resulting in a vastly improved viewing experience all round on Blu-ray High Definition format, far exceeding anything previously available.

Rezensionen

M.​ Köhler in Musikexpress 9/07: "Die zwischen 1969 und 1974 produzierten 45 Halbstunden-Episoden strotzen nur so vor fieser Political Incorrectness.​ Mit leidenschaftlich grausamer Hingabe werden staatliche Autoritäten, hochnäsige Oberschichtler und ganze Berufsstände nicht nur parodiert, sondern demontiert.​ Ebenso wie der Kleinbürger, in all seiner verkrusteten Schrulligkeit, aber auch die Eigenheiten ganzer Nationen sowie deren prominente Aushängeschilder.​"
