Miniseries Update

[Gobalopper]

Just a small update for those of you still waiting for the miniseries on DVD or on your local cable station.

First up is this review at The Digital Bits which says the DVD version is somewhat disappointing. There are a number of problems that the reviewer points out, like the aspect ratio and the misleading print on the back. This is the Region 1 (North America) disc, I haven't heard about versions for the other regions. Give it a read if you are thinking of purchasing the DVD when it is released on March 20th.

Speaking of that those of you in Germany can check out the miniseries on April 22, 23, and 24th but since I can't read German you will have to check out this article yourself to find out what channel it is. :)

For those of you in Canada, like myself, be watching SPACE on April 7, 8, and 9th at 9pm Eastern, as according to their monthly FAQ it will be airing then. If anyone knows of other airdates for their location let us know.

There is also a special TV edition of the original movie that I haven't mentioned before. It was released back in September and is a Region 2 DVD. It contains an extra 35 minutes of footage and a new prologue. I think this is the "extended" version that you may have heard about but I'm not sure.
