Search - A Touch of Frost Season 13: Endangered Species on DVD

Not up to par

"I'm a great fan of this series. But the time to stop has arrived. This single 95 minute movie (hardly a season) has a very weak story and resorts to a series of gross situations that reflect the sad state of our popular culture today. And then there is the "love interest" between Frost and a woman young enough to be his granddaughter. (She's also about four inches taller.) Ridiculous. A great series gone sour. Enough!"

A Disappointment in DVD and Amazon

"A Touch of Frost, Season 13.A Touch of Frost Season 13: Endangered SpeciesFor the first time Amazon without total disclosure sells a DVD stated as a Season and one gets one progrom of ninety-five minutes. This has never happened in Midsommer Murder, etc.



We enjoyed the single and I want to emphasize SINGLE, program. Come on Amazon you can do better marketing than this. One program does not a season make.

Rip Off

"This product is a major ripoff not by Amazon but by the distributors of the film. It is advertised as season 13 but it is one episode on one disc 93 minutes long. I returned mine for credit.I have all the other seasons and I love the series but I am not paying for one episode."

OK ... but ...

"OK everyone has said it before that there is only one episode and it is a pretty silly episode at that. Trouble is David Jason is always watchable!



The reason for this comment is to clear up a few misunderstandings. This isn't the last of Frost - a new series of 3 episodes is currently showing on UK TV:



Season 14, Episode 1: Mind Games

Original Air Date--12 October 2008

Season 14, Episode 2: Dead End

Original Air Date--19 October 2008

Season 14, Episode 3: In the Public Interest

Original Air Date--26 October 2008



and is being released in the UK on DVD in late October.



What is even stranger is that in the UK there is no season 13 at all! Endangered Species was first of all released on a single DVD but is listed (along with the earlier story "Near Death Experience" as season 12. Hence in the UK we have seasons 1-12, an extra disc also labelled series 12 and now series 14 is being released.



I suspect in the US Endangered Species was released as season 13 to avoid a confusing gap (but then they just added to the confusion by having 2 seasons that were effectively single episodes!)"
