Excellent! Thanks for the news.

Great news. The 2nd season was quite different from the first, but still very good in my opinion.

Glad to see this one has special features this time too

Good news this one has extras! Will probably wait for a price drop around the holidays.

Can't wait! It's so nice to have access to this show not long after Netflix and in better quality, I'm glad I can still watch without an account.

Was waiting for the BD release to watch...it's been very tough!

Does anyone know if S1 will be released with the newly released bonus material that streamed on Netflix? I held off buying S1 BD, in the hopes another non-barebones version would surface. So far it doesn't look like that will happen.
