BONES - David Boreanaz says Season 1 is coming soon...

post #1 of 39
Thread Starter 
Season 1 is already available in the UK, and according to TvshowsonDVD, while at ComicCon, series star David Boreanaz mentioned that it will be available here in November, featuring commentaries by himself and the various producers.

This is fantastic news, especially considering how many people here didn't give the show the chance it deserved.

That being said, the show returns for a second season at the end of August, on Fox.

I watched a few episodes and it was decent, I'll definately look into it on DVD

^ Same here. It's not my typical show, but I'll give it a watch for the sake of being a DB fan. (From Buffy/Angel of course)

I didn't see this series when it first aired on FOX. I wish they aired summer reruns instead of those crap reality shows. Of course it could be argued that "Bones" is based on actual case files of a forensic anthropologist.

Give me a well-produced filmed series like Bones over cheap videotaped junk like Survivor any day!

Re: BONES - David Boreanaz says Season 1 is coming soon...

I watched every single episode of Bones to date and I loved every minute of it. I admit it was a little strange to see DB as anything other then Angel at first... but that feeling didn't last long at all. I really like Emily Deschane in it also.

This one will definitely be added to my collection... and I for one can't wait for season 2!

Its not yet released in the UK.
Some sites are still listing the originally planned release date of 7th August but others are now saying delayed until October. Have on pre-order so hope its soomer rather than later.

It's an outstanding crime procedural with a great cast of very unusual and interesting characters. Unlike other crime shows of TV, this one has a different feel about it, and as the season progressed, I grew to really love the characters, as eccentric as they are on the surface.

Definitely on my must-buy list, and I've been very disappointed to see the reruns abandoned for reality repeats.

Re: BONES - David Boreanaz says Season 1 is coming soon...

This isn't my genre, but I tuned in for David 'cause I loved Angel. And I was pleasantly surprised. It's not the kind of show I get *passionate* about, but I liked the characters and was entertained. I'll buy it.

(It's kinda cool how many people enjoy Bones, who don't normally enjoy crime shows, eh? That's a major achievement, methinks. I was afraid it would be cancelled for not being a cookie-cutter CSI clone. Originality is so often stamped out!)

Sorry about that - I forgot about the actual date of the UK release. Guess both sides of the pond will get near the same time.

A CSI clone is what most people seemed to write it off as, but it's anything but.

By the way, Season 2 is supposed to premiere August 30.

That's the earliest start date for a show I watch...unfortunately it is also going to move to the death slot of Friday nights in the winter.

maybe Fox is doing that so the show can be cancelled and David has more time to do an Angel movie? lol... I know, wishful thinking.

BONES will be on 4 STUPID, CRAPPY, DOUBLE-SIDED DISCS.

Horrible!

Release date is November 14.

Re: BONES - David Boreanaz says Season 1 is coming soon...

UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!! Warner and Universal are beginning to take the hint about double-sided discs and yet Fox is still up to it? Why??? I hate hate hate double-sided discs

Re: BONES - David Boreanaz says Season 1 is coming soon...

Yeah it sucks. Its a shame they couldn't just use 4 double thinpaks.

Re: BONES - David Boreanaz says Season 1 is coming soon...

Well, They lost one sale. I don't buy double sided discs. I will never knowingly buy them again. Why risk it?

Re: BONES - David Boreanaz says Season 1 is coming soon...

Note that these are DVD-14s, not the DVD-18s that Universal uses. Still annoying that you have to flip them, but the odds that they'll fail spectacularly are much less.

Re: BONES - David Boreanaz says Season 1 is coming soon...

Like I said in DVD Talk, I hate them. They could be considered the greatest DVD innovation and I'd still hate them.

Forget defects, the inconvience issues are too many to deal with.

Plus, DVD-14s make it worse - 4 episodes on one side, 2 on the other...what the hell is that?

I've had more drama with DVD-14's than DVD-18's, I've had issues with not one, but TWO Remington Steele season DVD's, which are the aforementioned DVD-14. Give me disc artwork or give me death at this point.

UPDATE:

FOX is now releasing this on November 28 - the same day the new ANGEL silm sets are released.

Looks like November 28 is David Boreanaz DVD Day...that's a lot of D's.

Re: BONES - David Boreanaz says Season 1 is coming soon...

^ would possibly be smart for Fox to try a special on that. A way to get Angel fans to check Bones out, and people who like Boreanaz on Bones to check Angel out at the same time

Re: BONES - David Boreanaz says Season 1 is coming soon...

That's why I checked out BONES. Makes sense.

Re: BONES - David Boreanaz says Season 1 is coming soon...

Wow, thanks for this thread. I was just about to order because I really like this show. Thanks for the Double-Sided Disc warning. There's no chance in heaven I'm gonne buy the set now. I'm still upset that I can't watch the last Disc of my "West Wing - Season 2"-Set anymore, because the stupid Double-Side Disc won't play anymore...

Why is FOX starting to do this now? Every other major studio said goodby to this crappy discs.

Damn I really wanted this show. Does anybody know what discformat the UK-Release has?

Actually, they've been doing it before (e.g. The Pretender).

You'll be pleased to know that the UK set will contain 6 single-sided discs (see here.

Re: BONES - David Boreanaz says Season 1 is coming soon...

Well, it's out now.

Nice packaging and slipcover, but I cannot bring myself to pick it up on account of it being 4 double-sided DVDs.

I even saw it for rent at Blockbuster, but I doubt rented double-sided discs will last long.

Re: BONES - David Boreanaz says Season 1 is coming soon...

Netflix gets special discs made for them usually. They are single sided.

I don't know for sure if this is true for this one, but it has been for the others discs I have rented that were sold as double sided.

I am also passing on this set because it is double sided. I don't need any more stress in my life.

Glad I found this thread. I love this show! Thanks for the heads up!

Re: BONES - David Boreanaz says Season 1 is coming soon...

That's what makes this so frustrating!

Several of us are passing on this because of the headache that is double-sided discs, and even though a few people out there not buying it don't compare to the many more out there who will, it's still a loss for both Fox and us.

What kind of headaches? I don't know anything about the double-sided discs.
