I would kill to have ROME on Blu-Ray. I thought this series was a natural fit for a one season arc (the rise and fall of Julius). When I saw the logical progression into the second season, I thought again that it was a natural fit for a 3 season arc.

The 2nd season at points was rushed. I think season 2 could have been expanded to a 3rd season and have much more natural progression.

I think the change in Octavian was probably the most jarring for me.

That was the plan, but word came down that season 2 would be the last. So the showrunners amped up the pace in order to complete the story. You're right that it's a bit jarring at points (particularly Octavian's rapid aging), but it all worked out in the end. The fall of Mark Antony was the logical place to end the series. Incredibly enjoyable show that I have to keep forcing myself to not buy on DVD. I want this on blu-ray ASAP!!!

In the meanwhile, I'll be all over John Adams. That was a great series.

How I Met Your Mother freckin sweet. One of my favorite shows.

sinister184 · 05-01-2009, 03:10 PM

USA can release burn notice on blu-ray but not Psych? ghey.

Universal is the distributor too.

fatediesel · 05-01-2009, 03:16 PM

Don't understand why Burn Notice is being released on June 16th when the new season starts June 4th.

peter008 · 05-01-2009, 03:39 PM

csi, star trek, john adams, battlestar galactica, terminator (tscc) are already on my shopping list.

but where's: veronica mars, bones, ncis, stargate sg1-atlantis, dead like me, dark angel, highlander...and a lot of others great not so recent series

maybe it's just me but i'm always amazed by the fact that new series that nobody talk about (ex: lie to me) go to blu and great serie like the one i mentionned are still just in dvd. somebody has to explain that one to me.

I don't watch Lie to Me, but it averages over 12 million viewers a week. Most of the shows you mentioned were canceled due to low ratings. The assumption is if people watch it on TV they are more likely to buy it on Blu-ray. In addition Lie to Me might just be a placeholder, I haven't heard any rumors of it being released.

"Burn Notice" is distributed by Fox. "Psych", as you say is distributed by Universal.

I am intrigued by this. I love well done historical stories, and with the reviews on this I am very interested. How is the replay value on this miniseries? Would you recommend a blind buy?

andyman1970 · 05-01-2009, 04:00 PM

I'm already planning to pick up Dexter: Season 2 and CSI: Season 1 when they release. Then I'll be tapped out for May.

ScarredLungs · 05-01-2009, 04:03 PM

Doesn't Terminator: Sarah Conner Season 2 have a release date of 9/15?

If you enjoy well done historical stories, then by all means give John Adams a go. I'd say it's worth a blind buy, particularly if you're interested in that part of history. I can't really comment on the replay value as I've only seen it once back when it first aired on HBO. That said, I'm interested in watching it again, and this blu-ray release is the perfect way to do so IMO.

krazyclown · 05-03-2009, 08:47 PM

lost season 5 is december 8 dont know if you want to add it

BluLuzzo · 05-03-2009, 09:24 PM

I would love for How I Met Your Mother to come to blu but i would hope they would evenually go back and release seasons 1-3 on blu as well....

I just caught up on all three seasons in the past week, first time i had ever seen it and it is great.

cearl89 · 05-04-2009, 01:42 AM

yeah, i'd love Rome also

it's strange what shows they pick, especially when they start several seasons in without releasing the earlier ones

like lost

Liberal Hippie · 05-04-2009, 01:45 AM

I wonder if they will ever release Winds of War and War and Remembrence on Blu?

JTStarkiller · 05-06-2009, 05:40 PM

I just want Clone Wars, and I'll be a happy camper.
