Decent prices... Keep in mind that Lion's Gate used the edited/syndicated versions for the ALF set. And I believe Will & Grace as well.

Boomtown might be tempting if I knew that they were planning on releasing the few episodes from Season 2.

Even if they don't officially release them, bootlegs have got to be available. I think there were six episodes in season 2 and they were all broadcast in HDTV so, there must be plenty of people with better-than DVD copies, sooner or later they'll make it out into the wild, if they have not already.

DDD has these for a dollar more for those who don't want to pay shipping on one set.

You won't get the first 18 episodes UNLESS the last 6 are available too?

Do yourself a favor and buy season 1 and forget about season 2. Those six episodes were CRAP. Terrible, terrible crap.

Went ahead and ordered Boomtown as a blind buy from DDD. I didn't want to have to scrounge for another title at Amazon to get the free shipping.

Dead Zone and Boomtown look very tempting

I wonder why they are so cheap. Is it possible to be getting OOP soon?

It's just a season one sale like Fox and Columbia Tri-Star have previously done.

DDD must've lowered the prices on these today cuz this morning they were all over $20.

Actually, DDD used to have really really low prices on Lions Gate titles then a few months ago, raised all of them across the board to match other studio prices.

Thanks for the heads up. I don't like buying from Amazon (and usually don't) because of sales tax.

Man... I really wish I already didn't own Saved By The Bell, Boomtown, and The Dead Zone. Any chance of them adding more?

I'm not entirely sure what properties Lion's Gate owns...

I got them from amazon because DDD charges me taxes on my side.

If I bought them from DDD they would have cost me $20 each

Some weird stuff huh!

Man, that's a great price for Boomtown. Anyone who's on the fence : it's a fantastic series. I spent $26 when it came out -- I knew the price would drop, but I couldn't wait.

You won't do it hanging around in here. I've given up on trying to save money.

Got Boomtown... I'm excited, I missed it because I watched a competing show, but my parents loved it, and I'm looking forward to it, and of course, $18.89 + free sh is a steal!

Thanks OP and DDD Poster!
