Roswell - Something OFFICIAL About North American release of Season 2

Posted by David Lambert

Roswell, Roswell, Roswell...that's what a major portion of our readers are asking about with all the e-mails we've been getting lately! And that's great, because it's a subject on our minds, too.

A great many of you have been writing in, telling us about the overseas release of the second season, and how the European release date should tie in very closely with the North American version, and how the disc contents are tied together as well.

Believe us when we say, we appreciate those e-mails, and we've gotten a LOT of them. More than on any other single subject, in fact. And we've tried to patiently explain to everyone individually that we know about the Region 2 release, but that we were not going to discuss it on our site, because we are strictly oriented to Region 1 releases (or Region 0 releases with NTSC video output).

So yesterday the site's owner, Gord Lacey, contacted the highest levels of Fox Home Entertainment, and got formal word from them about Roswell - The Complete 2nd Season. The North American release of that box set is going to happen in the 4th Quarter of this year, but has not even been narrowed down to a specific month. Moreover, there is not yet a guarantee that the contents, especially the supplements, of the overseas version will be duplicated domestically. Rights issues may differ from territory-to-territory, which is one of the reasons that the Region system was established in the first place.

TVShowsOnDVD and Fox both urge our readers to be patient while the set's worked on for USA and Canada, and be aware that noone is more impatient than I am (David). I discovered the show on DVD, and it blew me away as among the very best I've ever watched. I'm jonesing for the 2nd Season just like the rest of the fans...but I'd rather have it done "right" than have it "now." Hang tight and stay tuned, and we'll let you know something definite as soon as we can!
