anyone have any idea how much this is gonna be on amazon, and is it worth a blind buy?

shireguy · 11-26-2010, 09:00 PM

$25 !!

contemplating it ... but seeing other TV shows 'crash' to 9.99 - I'm thinking just wait until another time..... it will eventually get cheaper.

It's going to be $24.99. I'm debating whether it's worth a blind buy. I watched a couple episodes and didn't hate it but didn't love it either, but I heard it got better as the season went on.

jeffgordonlovesblu · 11-26-2010, 09:03 PM

yeah, 25 just isnt worth it for me. if it was 15 or under i'd be in serious thought right now. 25 is just too much when i'm getting movies for 8 dollars or less lol

benbess · 11-26-2010, 09:38 PM

Prolly worth it at $25. I'm debating it myself. I've seen the whole thing on netflix streaming. It not only gets better as it goes on, but is had a beginning, middle, and end. The digital blood bugs me though. Have to see it as a surreal stylistic thing, I guess...

I'm not sure if I'm biting on this one or not.

I've never seen a single episode but I'm interested based on what I read around here.

sfmarine · 11-26-2010, 09:58 PM

From what I heard it starts out slow but gets a lot better. I think I'm going to snag this one!

I'll admit very slow at the beginning. But hang in there and I swear you will be locked on by the second episode.

benbess · 11-26-2010, 10:48 PM

Slow??? Hmmm...Well, there's blood, sex, and violence in every episode. I wouldn't call it slow. Trashy, maybe, but....

My co-worker watched it and she said that it does start slow but it gets way better on the third and fourth chapter so I went ahead and ordered. Patience paid off.
