"""""""Law and Order"""" is the ground-breaking, record-breaking police/lawyer drama that's developed such a religious following in recent years that its spawned several television spin offs. At last we get the original series as it premiered back in the late eighties and sporting a box set that is rather impressive, considering it comes from Universal Studios - a studio not known for going """"all out"""" on a t.v. series. This box set gives us all 24 episodes from season one. Some of the best, and most disturbing moments are featured herein, including a child molestation segment, thought to be so emotionally disturbing that, after its initial broadcast, for six years afterward, was never aired on network prime time again. How times have changed!
Over all, the image quality of these discs is fairly good. Some episodes have a considerable amount of film grain present. However, I suspect this is not only the fault of the original elements used in taping the episode, but due, in part, to the lesser quality of equipment used in television productions nearly thirteen years ago. Colors are muted and dated but they are well balanced. Flesh tones are accurately presented. Black levels are solid. Contrast levels are generally good, though a few episodes seem to have considerably lower levels than the norm. Edge enhancement and pixelization are generally kept to a minimum, though they are present throughout the series. The audio is remastered and well presented, only occasionally sounding strident. """
