but had issues with receiving a particular DVD from the series (The one with PK Tech Girl on it).
I think I remember that one being hard to get, too. They must have fewer copies of it than the others for some reason.
Overwhelming? How much more than whelming would that be exactly?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm sure damage to one disc of a multi-disc set wreaks havoc with inventory control.

Speaking of which, any word on the season 3 complete Farscape? I keep checking at the DVD price compare locations and there never seems to be a date scheduled. Season 4, I don't know what I'm going to do about. The sets are too pricey to be completist in this case, I think. Maybe pick and choose the individual sets?

ADV doesn't have it on their site yet, and neither does videoeta.
For S4, I don't know what to do either. I'll probably wait until the sets show up a bit cheaper on half.com.

ADV has been releasing the complete season sets in the fall, so I'd expect the season 3 box set to be out in October or so. I bought them as they were released, but I've been holding off on buying the season 4 disks.
Again, for those who don't know: ADV is a small firm without a lot of capital, and Farscape is very much a niche show. As a result they can't afford the big print runs that allow for cheap box sets like the Buffy & Angel runs. They have, however, been very good about working with the fan campaign to provide donated or at-cost dvds for the Military Project and other efforts.

Yeah, I remember that - I just could have sworn somebody mentioned it was coming out soon a while back. Maybe I was thinking of season 2? Was that just this past fall?
Have the more recent small sets (i.e. season 4) been coming out in broadcast order, or are they still getting creative with throwing episodes together? I need to review the episode list so I can figure out what to bother with.

AFAIK, S1 was the only one aired out of production order (because they were doing a weird shooting-two-eps-at-once thing, which turned out to be more confusing than time-saving, so they gave it up), so there shouldn't be any discrepancies.

Thanks, Jess. That's what I thought, but nice to have confirmation.

The Headstones and Hard Core Logo are helping me get my master's project done, and that's all thanks to you people here. Just wanted to say.
Actually, it's largely due to brenda m, but the other due South fans helped.
