Hi!
I am wanting to pick up some good reference mixes for tv shows such as Ugly Betty.
I'm wondering if the mixes for DVD are different than the TV mixes? Are things like dialogue more compressed/limited on TV than DVD's generally? What differences are there, if any?

Is it better for me to learn from material taped directly off the TV or from DVD's (which would be better quality sound!).

ps. Any recommendations for shows that have interesting soundtracks?
