Earth 2: Season 1 (July 19, 2005)
Any word on an Earth 2 DVD release? Not even sure if it made it past the first season but I enjoyed what episodes the show had.

Wow, I would probably pick this up too, no word on it that I know of and probably wont see it. There was 22 episodes and 1 season. The only thing that sucks about these is much like V, you get one season with no ending or anything, dosnt make much sense?

In mid-February we passed along rumors that Earth 2 was coming to DVD later this year. Today Universal has confirmed those rumors with a formal announcement of a July 19th launch for Earth 2 - The Complete Series! Look for all 21 hour-long episodes (including the double-length pilot) of the single-season NBC series about the journey of Devon Adair (Debrah Farentino) and her band of non-conformists (including Antonio Sabato Jr. and Rebecca Gayheart), who leave their artificial environment in space stations orbiting a dead Earth, and travel to a distant planet, where they begin a new life for themselves.
17 hours of futuristic adventure comes on 3 double-sided DVDs, which will sell for $49.98 SRP. English Dolby Digital 2.0 Stereo, subtitles in English and Spanish, and video in 1.33:1 full frame. Cover art hasn't made it out yet, but stay tuned and we'll bring that when it's ready.

Beautiful artwork! I remember watching the first few episodes (since it was touted as a "serious" version of Lost in Space).
Does the series end "gracefully" (ie. is there closure to the story) or does it just end abruptly?

Those bonus episodes are waste of time and disc space. Especially if one plans on buying the sets that those are on anyway. I'm getting Earth 2 and Cleopatra both, so the bonus episodes are a total waste of time.
I wouldn't mind getting Sliders, but just have a hard time believing that that series only has a mono soundtrack.

Universal has kindly sent over artwork for the third season of Sliders which stars Jerry O'Connell, John Rhys-Davies and Sabrina Lloyd. The four-disc set will be available to own from the 19th July this year, and should set you back around $59.98 in total. Each of the twenty-five episodes will be presented in 1.33:1 full frame along with English Dolby Digital 2.0 Mono tracks. The only extra material will be bonus episodes of Cleopatra 2525 and Earth 2, and a gag reel.

You're referencing announcements and artwork which aren't always correct. Take a look at the review on this very site for confirmation on the sound.

You can also check with sites like tvshowsondvd.com for info. They usual try to confirm suspect information with the studios and adjust their listings when they get more accurate info.

If a studio is going to include episodes from another show, those bonus episodes should appear, if at all, on an extra disc shrink-wrapped with the set that you're paying for (which is what Warner has been doing lately).
Also, according to those screenshots, it appears that the Earth 2 set is going to consist of three double-sided discs. Why do I doubt that they're double-sided double-layered?
Oh Universal... *sigh*
