It didn't slip under my radar :) been sitting on the wish list for a while now hoping and praying that it comes down in price with the sales next week cos as much as I want it I won't pay the amount they are currently asking. I have just watched the first season as it screened on the ABC over the last few months, I'm dying to see the rest of it as I don't think the ABC plan on bringing it back until mid next year :(

I tried to get into this series & failed to, twice. Seemed a bit slow & I wasn't really "getting" some of the plot lines either. But the actor who played the bartender was all class. I would've expected to see him in other shows/films, but haven't noticed.

Price is steep, but worth it for all those {expletive deleted} Swearagain quotes in Lossless DTS HDMA!

WOAHH - price is FRI***IN OUTRAGEOUS - but then again, most HBO shows / series are ******* expensive in the USofA. Great show - but since I bought the DVDs for $15 a season, I think freggin not at those ***** Amazon prices.

maybe one day when it c***********t cheaper - DVDs upscaled are enough for **** me :)

here are the quotes that I wish I could ****** put on here - http://amazon.imdb.com/title/tt0348914/quotes

Review is up..... http://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Deadwood-The...y/13179/#Review

Now just need the price to come down....

one point to note : the local Paramount DVDs never had a single extra on them - the HBO Blu's are LOADED TO THE BRIM with HD supplements.

i'd be riding this one out - and waiting to see if it gets a local release and maybe a cheaper price - or better, Amazon UK gets them :)

Please point to ANY HBO series that has been released here cheaper than the US price (I'll even let you count DVD releases).

:) ok... DVD wise....

ENTOURAGE - down to $19 a season Oz - via Warner

CURB YOUR ENTHUSIASM - via Warner

THE SOPRANOS - via Warner

DEADWOOD - cheapest $15 a season - cheaper via Paramount

BAND OF BROTHERS

SIX FEET UNDER

TRUE BLOOD https://www.jbhifionline.com.au/dvd/dvd-gen...-blu-ray/576858

THE WIRE - less than $19 a season - https://www.jbhifionline.com.au/dvd/dvd-gen...llection/474311

Actually - locally we've scored far better HBO pricing that what the US has had. HBO TV series have been notoriously expensive there.

Just finished watching the last ep - worth every cent!

Curious how many of the cast appear in Sons of Anarchy and Justified - both also well worth a watch!

Have seen all three , but I didnt notice a connection between them, what is it? ( creators of the three seem different)

Is this boxset region free, or locked to region A? I don't have a region free blu-ray player. :(

Blu-ray.com says Region A locked, which is odd considering pretty much every single other HBO release is Region Free. But i'm in the same boat as you - now I have to hope for a local release or UK :(

Damn. :( Thanks for your help though. I guess we'll have to hope good things come to those who wait!

Seriously?

Many of the key cast from Deadwood are in either SOA or Justified - playing similar roles/characters actually

SOA = Deadwood on Motorbikes (swap gold for Guns and Drugs, but the same story updated)

Justified = Deadwood updated to 21 century hick town USA (even has the same bad tempered sheriff as Deadwood)

Yeah I realise the story similarities & actors that are the same.

I was wondering if there was a connection in regards to production and/or writing.

i can confirm that it is region locked, it plays all the HBO traliers and than goes to the "This Disc is region locked, insert into a region A Blu Ray player" but if you have ways of watching it its well worth it and the package is nicely done

Our Deal of the Day price is just $85.49--59% off the list price $209.98 for the Blu-ray and $61.99--59% off the list price of $149.98 for the DVD.
