The Boys: Season 1 - 11th May 2020

I just got my copy of Season 3 and it's region free according to the back cover :

EDIT: Never mind, the packaging and disc art have an ABC symbol, but the actual discs are Region B LOCKED.

EDIT #2: Also, unlike the first two seasons, Season 3 is only two discs instead of three discs. Each disc has 4 episodes (about 4 hours) and the extras are on Disc Two.

When it arrived this week, I was a bit disappointed because of that. The first two seasons looked amazing on blu-ray. Hopefully cramming four episodes onto a disc hasn't hurt the quality too much. I'll watch at least one season 3 episode tomorrow and see what I think. It would be nice if it still managed to look as good.

When is season 4 getting a blu-ray release? It needs to hurry up, thought I'd own it by now.

Actually gave up collecting these after Season 1. Hopefully when the show is finished, they'll release a complete 4K set.

Season 4 up for pre-order, out September 1st

I'm intrigued by this series and would like to buy the UK Blu-ray sets. The first three seasons are available for a reasonable price. Are these UK sets good presentations of the series? Are they uncut? Or should they be avoided?

Thank you!

They are uncut. The three disc sets of series 1 and 2 look amazing in 1080p, an easy recommendation. Series 3 and 4 are only two disc sets and the PQ isn't quite as impressive imo - however they still look quite good so I wouldn't be too badly put off. I would recommend picking up the UK sets.

btw A lot of American members had issues with their early sets due to the US sets having stacked discs (so avoid the US options). In the UK, each disc had it's own hub. Brilliant tv series by the way.

Excellent! Thank you, friend. I've ordered the first three seasons at reasonable prices. I'll wait for the fourth to drop a little in price.
