Subject: DVD commentaries?
I just noticed something odd about one of the commentaries on the
Season 5 DVD set and am wondering if many are like that from this
and other season sets. Are the audio and video commentaries on
most of them different? I was watching The Valkyrie with just the
audio commentary on. During the usual Highlander opening sequence
Adrian mentioned something about one of the shots in it and the
sword move. I switched to the video commentary since it sounded
like he was maybe showing something about the move. But that and
some of the other things in the audio commentary weren't part of
the video one. I had thought the difference between the all the
audio vs video commentaries were just that for the video ones you
got to see the person making the comments and they didn't show the
scenes were no comments were made. So now I'm curious if most or
even some of the others have comments only on the audio version.

They're all different. It seems that the audio commentaries are the full
episode and the video commentaries are edited to be only 20 mins or so. So,
if you want to hear and see everything you have to watch both. That,
combined with RL, is why I'm pitifully behind everyone else - I'm still
working my way slowly through Season 3.
Peace,

The audio and video commentaries are often different and sometimes the audio
ones are quite enjoyable.
