The Incomplete Series
Unfortunately, this series is *not* complete. It's been butchered for a quick buck. Only season one has the original music, as is well documented. It's such a shame to ruin what is one of TV's finest and most original shows. Do yourself a favor and skip buying this set. I was able to obtain/bootleg all of the episodes on DVD, which I felt I had no choice in doing (I'd rather buy a factory set), recorded from Canadian TV (which, by the way, even has more footage in some of the episodes than the syndicated U.S. broadcasts). This way it's intact, the way it was intended, with the original soundtrack---not the pusillanimous generic elevator music that the studio hastily replaced it with in the DVDs. It's just not the same show without the original soundtrack. A faux-suede satchel or fake parka case doesn't come close to making up for compromising the artistic integrity of Northern Exposure. Sorry Universal, but you aren't getting one red cent from me until you get this right.
