The DVD comes with a booklet containing the original pre-release Universal Press Information, which provides a fascinating look at some of the stories which never made it into production.

It's nice that this is coming out, although rather pricey for a show which had 7 episodes. I'd like to upgrade mine, which I recorded off ABC when they aired, but not at that price, plus shipping to the U.S.

I received my copy yesterday and watched the first episode. The episode is truly complete and unedited, from the opening teaser scenes to the bumpers that pop up mid episode. I was especially happy to see that the Universal logo at the end of the episode was the original and not replaced with a newer version. The picture quality looked fine to me on the 52 ' RCA I have. This is a nice set and is surely recommended to fans of the series.

Am interested in getting the Region 4 set of Darkroom. Have checked the price on ezyDVD but the price is still too high.

I got this from Devoted when it was released... very happy with it.

The price on Devoted is lower than ezyDVD. Are Devoted a reliable seller, in terms of delivery and packaging?

I'm pretty sure I've used them in the past, but if so, it's been awhile. FBO (Family Box Office) and DVD Orchard are also reliable (and FBO frequently worked out as less-expensive for me on several things in the past).

Thanks for replying Andy.


Have purchased Darkroom from Devoted. You can choose how you have a DVD/DVD set sent to you in the post, which is a good idea.
