hoping that price goes down!

Think I'll import this like I did with the second season, don't like the thought of having it thin.

Pyoko · 01-10-2011, 02:09 AM

That's what I paid for Seasons 1 and 2 together, so yeah, definitely needs to come down in price. Honestly, I don't understand why the TV season prices are so incredibly expensive from the beginning, it's so annoying. £30+ for a season is ridiculous when I know it's going to be £17 (or even lower) in a few months. I know I would buy more shows on release (and pay more for them) if they started at just above £20 and kept it there, instead of going from really high to really low on everything.

Me too, I have the UK season 1 but I imported Season 2. I do like my consistant packaging!

So S1 was thicker in the UK but S2 wasn't?

Oh that's weird. I had posted this in the US slipcover thread so now I'm wondering if they'll be the same. The latest slipcovers/boxes for HBO shows have been smaller except for Deadwood.

Finally, Now i can buy the previous 2.Will pick them up a few weeks before so i can watch and catch up

nekromantik · 01-10-2011, 11:06 AM

i bought the UK 1 and 2 boxset and both were slim amrays.

I would much rather have behind the scenes stuff then the PiP mode tbh.

Am I right in thinking Season 3 starts on Friday on FX?

I'm with you mate on the price of these things. 15-25 pounds for a full season is a good price and they'd fly off the shelves. Doctor Who is one of the most expensive and worst offender considering it's only a half season to begin with (like True Blood).

It's weird because we can buy a 200+ million dollar film for fifteen quid but a TV series which costs a quarter of that is three times the price (and has already been sold to worldwide markets).

Can anyone answer a in a spoiler free way? As I haven't watched seasons one and two yet (I have the DVD's) how close these follow the books?

Thanks David1, I don't mind different plots I've just been a bit confused when I've seen certain episodes and I think to myself "shouldn't he or she be...?"

No1Mugster · 01-10-2011, 05:07 PM

So annoying when they keep changing packaging when it comes to series.

DaveSimonH · 03-20-2012, 08:09 PM

The True Blood season 3 set, £16.99 at Amazon and play

MrHT · 04-27-2013, 05:07 PM

Are all seasons of True Blood region-free? I want to buy THIS set from Amazon UK and don't want to place an order until I can get confirmation from someone that these are region-free. I know Amazon says Region-free, but they're not 100% reliable, so I just wanted to make sure.

Thanks!
