We got a release date for the Blu Ray sets today at STLV, November 13th 2018. There's going to be a ton of special features. They didnt say anything about it digitally.

 

Marked in my calendar.

 

I hope each episode comes with a Commentary Track.

 

Cool! Guess I'll finally see this thing now (unless the price is too crazy high). CBS All Access was just not gonna happen.

BBC range?

 

Cost of a season of a BBC show on Blu-ray/DVD.

 

Ahh. I haven’t bought a BBC blu-ray in years.

 

Why would people PREFER to pay the equivalent of 4-5 Months worth of CBSAA subscriptions to own the disks rather than subscribe?

I mean, I'll buy the disks because I love the show...but it wouldn't have been my preferred way to see it for the first time.

 

Better quality? They own it?
