Is there something dodgy about Australian-released Supernatural season 2 dvds? I seem to recall something about missing extras, but it's only $35 from Ezydvd, and I need birthday and Christmas presents for my sister :) ETA: thank you, oh all-knowing friends!

I've never really got into Starsky and Hutch, but I'm tempted to buy all four seasons from JB HiFi because they're only $16 each! Pity we've already got NCIS s1-4, they're only $25 each. But I think she'll be getting House s4, it's only $40, which is really good for a new release.

Normally my goal is to catch up on weekends on all the stuff I haven't had time for during the week. Except it is Sunday night and I have 48 tabs open, whoops /o\

I think it was SPN S2 that had the false advertising - there is a special feature listed on the back cover that is not actually included, and Warner Bros basically said "Fuck you" to anyone who complained.

Season 2 is advertised as having cast & crew commentary on the first episode, but it's not actually on there. All the other special features are there, though, and the commentary's not all that good.

Thank you! I will never stop being pissed at different extras in different regions >:(

That is excellently useful, thank you! Given that apparently in-store it's only $30 (and the dire exchange rate), I think I can live without that commentary :)

1 - Regional coding sucks donkey balls anyway.

2 - How hard can it possibly be to make them all the same? Surely it costs MORE to chop and change them? If the same extras were available in all regions, then they wouldn't bloody NEED regional coding. Stupid fucks.

Oooh, I knew the RRP of NCIS was down to $30 soon but $25 is even better.

I figured someone would have to be interested in those NCIS prices :D

If you find you can't live without it at some stage, I'm sure I could rip it for you. :)
