Well its a strange tale, I ordered Lost and a few other dvds a long time back, maybe 6 weeks ago! they couldnt get stock of them, so I sent them an email complaining they hadnt shipped any etc.. they then said give it 5 days and we will cancel your order if they dont come in stock. I waited and thought they would have canceled them, I was wrong and they shipped them 10 days after they said the order was to be canned, so I was peed. The same day they were shipped DDD sale was announced, go figure

There's a moral there don't expect company's to do what they say they will and politely nudge them. It's no excuse but they're busy.

You still got them early and presumably paid what you originally thought you would and if they had shipped on time you'd still (in your eyes) be £7 down so I don't what the big deal is.

You would've known when ordering at some point it would be cheaper than you were willing to pay at the time.

If its the new series its a brilliant miniseries, but it doesnt get really good until the series stars, its flipping amazing! just got Season 2, cannot wait to watch it.

Posted: **15 Nov 2006, 20:32**

Series stars? Is that a best of?

Posted: **15 Nov 2006, 20:46**

He meant series starts...

It's nae a best of, just a miniseries... then the seasons start...

I've not heard a single negative review so my expectations are officially waaaaay up.

What's the different between the mini-series and seasons?

Posted: **15 Nov 2006, 21:02**

the seasons follow from the mini-series (like a sequel), I believe.

as I said Movie tyme are an overpriced place and rarley (if ever) do they have a good deal on any title.

Movietyme often beat cd-wow on pre-order prices. the new superman ultimate is a tenner cheaper for example and the the star trek animated set is £5 less

CD WOW are generally expensive for box sets.

Hey the Miniseries is a good start and made me take note as I liked it. Then a while after I saw it they announced the full TV show and really the TV show takes it so much further

everything seems to flow better in the series.

Still the Miniseries as an introduction to the show is great and I love these space adventures where the ships are not invincible like on Star Trek and such shows, its basically like World War 2. For 2.99 you cannot go wrong thats for sure.

Posted: **16 Nov 2006, 18:32**

What do you mean the ships are invincible? Don't you remember the Star Trek Dog Fights?

So it's £2.99 for the whole mini-series? How many episodes? How long are each? It sounds intriguing. Does it just stop at the end of the mini-series as it expect you to watch the seasons?

Posted: **16 Nov 2006, 18:55**

I'd have thought the mini-series could be watched on it's own,as the series was only commisioned was only decided upon after the miniseries proved popular.

Posted: **16 Nov 2006, 18:56**

It's £2.99 for the whole mini-series. The R1's superior (see dvdcompare) but considering the price of the R2, I'm not bothered - I just want to watch the series you know?

I'm afraid I can't answer the rest of the questions, as I know nothing, apart from people have been raving on about this (in the same way people raved on about Firefly).

Posted: **16 Nov 2006, 20:06**

The Miniseries is 3 hours long

and felt complete as it was as just said they never knew a series was coming but the Miniseires did soooo well it has to be made into a series, but they knew they were onto a good thing and got the series going soon after

Posted: **16 Nov 2006, 20:13**

Cheers guys. I'll go order it then, thanks Bisc.

I see cheekily the Season 1 R1 has the Mini Series but the UK R2 is a disc less and doesn't. I also see the UK got a different opening: "complete season featuring the UK different opening"

You never know you may like it enuff to get the series

but just remember the series is even better quality.

Posted: **16 Nov 2006, 21:37**

Will do.

Well duh. I was mocking Dolby Digital 5.1.

Posted: **20 Nov 2006, 18:36**

Why bother. It's not like Dolby Digital is a bad codec and DD5.1 is a bad variant of it.

ALWAYS do order multiple items from Dvdfromkorea, in order to get as much mileage out of the shipping as possible.
