Yeah, season 3 came out a few months after the DVDs, and then season 4 came out the same day. Warner is going back and filling in the season 1/2 gap, with season 1 already out, and season 2 scheduled for the first half of 2011. Maybe I'll give my Warner contacts a shout and see if they have anything new with the date (I want to see it as well).

Spoke to my person at Warner, and was told it's tentatively scheduled for release in June.

I hate to tell you this, but that can be very dangerous when it comes to TV-on-DVD (or BD, in this case).

In order for a box set to be released, the studio must see that there's demand. TV-on-BD isn't doing as well as TV-on-DVD had done in the past, and we've seen many examples of a show being released on BD, then not continued because of sales. If consumers don't purchase season-by-season, then the chances of a box set diminishes. I can't tell you how many emails I've gotten from people asking when the next season of a show will be released, and when I tell them that it may not come due to low sales, they're annoyed because they've been waiting to buy them all at once. Every purchase counts.

I completely agree, especially with the complete series sets. I'm not a fan of them, as they usually screw the loyal fans that supported the season releases. I really, really don't like when the studio includes exclusive material on the set that isn't available for everyone else. That's slimy.

Sorry David, the person I deal with is the SVP that covers TV - she doesn't touch theatrical at all.
