Question about the Office on dvd

Been wanting to buy this for a while, and I think I'm taking the plunge this week. One question: Is it edited? I know when they show it on BBC America, some of the harsher language is edited (a couple moments in season 2 especially) but it's not in its original broadcast. So what's the verdict from anyone who's got it? Thanks.

Question:

Anyone know for sure if the Seasons 1 and 2 "pack" includes all 3 discs (2 from season 1 and 1 from season 2)?

Buy.com, Amazon and DVDSoon lists it with only 2 discs total...

Interesting too is the fact that at most these places, it's actually about $1 cheaper to buy the DVDs separately instead of in the pack. At Best Buy, it's $25 cheaper to buy them separately!

Don't hold me to this but I heard it was just 2 discs... but packed with quite a few special features. I could be wrong though. The second disc on series 1 really isin't that great anyway.

uncut

it's not the "typical" type of humor though; very dry, sometimes very dark; the format is not like a sitcom at all; don't go in with many preconceptions or expectations and you'll enjoy it

I agree--that second disc isn't great, but since it's nearly the same price, I'd get it if I could.

Anyone else heard whether this is truly 2 discs or just a "pack" of the 2 season sets?

Hey! I think I found the answer. At bbcshop.com, they say the "box set" contains THREE discs. That's what it should be, if it's the season 1 disc, the season 2 disc and the season 1 bonus materials. Good to hear! Incidently, here's the region 2 box set...notice the blue bar across the top:

You people didn't like the second disk? I thought it was hilarious.
