all ready listed in the Life on Mars thred in the general forum... but i am happy with a reminder for this great series! ;)



`i am going to live forever or die trying`

Just got the dvd of the four remaining episodes from my friend in the UK (does the happy dance around the room). Guess I know how I will fill the time between now and when House returns to Fox TV tonight. :D

I`ll get the reg 2 dvd when it comes out, the extras are just too good to resist.

It could be interesting to watch what happens with this show. It`s probably approaching cult status on either coast of the US now. I have yet to hear of watching parties, but this show would be perfect for it. People can come to the viewing dressed in 70s outfits and eating food popular during that era. Oops sorry, I was channeling my friend who lives in the Castro area of San Francisco....

It`s great we finally have a show that can stand up with the superior American shows but will we ever take the challenge of producing 13, 15, 22 or even 24 episodes for a season?

I damn well hope not! Having watched many a full season of American shows I can say without a doubt it`s quantity over quality!

Please don`t, if you look at the US shows closely, there are only 10 good episodes in each series (if that). The good episodes are shown during the "sweeps" months February and May. The other two good eps start out the season....If you can find enough writers to create quality material, then that`s all well and good.

Are there enough good telewriters or even play writers in the UK to sustain a full American season of any British show?

Just received an update from the PR Company


due to unprecedented demand release date moved forward to 15th May!

Only £22.65 here

Looks like the price went up a little bit today. The price to ship the dvd to the US was £27.65, just slightly cheaper than amazon and sendit. Benson`s World doesn`t have it listed yet.
