Are there an BSG geeks out there who happen to know when BSG Season 3 is going to be released on DVD in North America? I want to get it.

It's on DVD for region 4 in Australia, and it's been released in England for whatever region code they are; but they haven't released in yet in North America.
It's available on ebay; but, not for region 1 dvd players.

I am sure you could remove the region from the DVD player / recorder in your computer, use DVDFab and burn copies that would play in a regular DVD player

I enjoy the show, but sometimes it gets to be a little melodramatic and the pacing can be somewhat slow. They should have put some more and longer action sequences and throw in a bit of humor.

The pacing has been up and down.....Espcecially after the third season....
But its still a top notch show...And the best Sci-fi show on right now...

If you're gonna burn a DVD....Why don't you just download the show of a torrent site?

I think I'll just wait 3 or 4 months for it to come out on DVD.
I haven't got a clue how to download things from a torrent site.
The only time I tried it downloaded a virus instead onto my computer.

I recommend using a Japanese digital video editor: A Prospec DVE 772. The website (see link below) is in Japanese, but the product works WONDERS!! It bypasses the copyright marker. I use it all the time to dub from a DVD to the HDD of a DVD-Recorder, so I can edit the programming, remove all the bogus warnings, menue screens, etc. Plus toggling on an HDD is easier than the surface of a commercial DVD. And I just click to watch, not load a DVD, wait for all the garbage warnings, logos, menues to come up again. Back to freedom, like laserdiscs used to be.

I bought mine when they were first released, cost about 15000 yen. You need an additional electric volt bypass unit from the 120V (US/Canada) to 100V (Japan).

You do realize that it's spelled Gaius, not Gyaos.....
In the election, if you remember the episode well, many in the fleet spelt my name wrong. I therefore got a recount and Rosalyn lost the election. It's Gyaos, only on the show it's Gaius. I'm still fucking the blonde cylon. :D

And I believe she's a farm girl from Alberta even.
Helfer was born in the rural community of Donalda in Stettler County, Alberta. She was raised on her family's grain farm and at the age of 17, while standing in line at a local movie theatre, she was discovered by modelling agency scout Kelly Streit. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tricia_Helfer)

I watch this show when it's released on DVD, - not on television.
Just wondering BSG Razor is available at BestBuy now; but they haven't released season 3 yet on dvd; so, I haven't seen it.

http://www.bestbuy.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?logon=&langid=EN&sku_id=0926INGFSM2142665&catid=20529#

I've seen season's 1, 2 and 2.5 so if I watch Razor will that spoil some of the things that are coming up in Season 3?

Imagine they'll release season 3 on DVD just ahead of the scheduled launch of season 4 in March 2008. I can't understand what's taking them so long to release season 3 on DVD. I've googled the topic and can't even find rumours about when BSG Season 3 comes out on DVD.

I really do not see what the big deal is about this show, It is ok I enjoy it but it is not amazing. I also think it is funny when people criticize the original .You would not have the remake without the original, Chicken and the egg. You need to respect the original if you do not like it.

This is like saying a led zeppelin cover band is better then the original. Sure the production could be newer and better, the musicians may be more technical and accurate but were did it all come from

I think that most people who watch this show have never seen the original series and so have no opinion about original.

I've seen maybe 60 minutes worth of the original series and people can think whatever they want about the 2 versions but they are so drastically different that they aren't really comparable in my view.

The newer BSG is a re imagining of the original series and has a much bleaker, dismal, worrisome vibe to it. The two series are not really comparable because the feeling and mood is so different.
The original series had a more campy, goofy feeling to it. At least that's the vibe I get from it.

It's like comparing the sixties Batman TV series to the screen versions that featured Michael Keaton or Christian Bale.

If people enjoy the new series why not just chill out and let them enjoy it instead of starting a pissing contest over which version is better. Really who cares?

Dam!?...no Fuzzy-peachy view:p in those images.

moving along ...i can't follow this series...did with a grain of salt in the beginning.Star buck as a chick doesn't fly..she is too Butch looking and a poor actress. But What the Frack was this last season, especially the season ending. Thus far the series is written by a hamster brained idiots.

Has there been just the one episode of Razor, or is it a series?
Razor was a made for tv movie just something to hold the fans off till season 4 premiers early next year, tells the story of Pegasus between seasons 2 and 3, btw if you havent seen it, its now available in an extended version on dvd, run dont walk to your video store, highly recommended.

Strange, I would have thought that they would have released it for Christmas.

Maybe they figure that there is too much competition at Christmas, whereas March....
