Canadian DVDs should play fine here -- they're Region 1/NTSC. The only difference is they may have French subtitles turned on by default.

Boxed Set, Vol. II: "It's a Cookbook...A Cookbook!!"
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

The Canadian DVDs are Region 1, so they are fine for US DVD players. The price is a bit high (about $81 on Amazon.ca after the exchange rate), but comparable to what the US price will be on July 4, the release date here. Originally, they were going to release in both the US and Canada in February, but the US date got pushed back after SciFi picked it up.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Damn, that's pricey for thirteen episodes, but it looks like there are gobs and gobs of extras.
Frankenbuddha, are you thinking of "Back and Back and Back to the Future" ?
Betsy, I thought it was good and appropriately emotional, but I guess I was expecting more.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

They lost the Star Wars/Star Trek 'populated universe' idea. He was tired of having lots of alien races. Philosophically, he wanted a drama more than s/f. No aliens, no time travel, no evil twins.
Well, two out of three ain't bad.

FrankenB, I don't remember "Back and Back and Back" crushing my heart into little tiny pieces the way "Father's Day" did.

I suspect he's talking about "Different Destinations."

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix
Strega is correct. I found ... Different Destinations to be heartbreaking in entirely different ways than Father's Day. It's less directly emotional, but the collateral damage seems even greater. And it's all tied up with how badly John and Aeryn are functioning at that point, with the damage from earlier episodes, and with showing that it's possible to restore the timeline and still screw up royally along the way.
