Why no moonlighting seasons 1 to 4 in the uk? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Could anyone please tell me why none of the seasons have been made available in the uk?.....is there a problem with the rights or something, or is it that they have just not got round to releasing it here in the uk...which i must say does surprise me if that is the case!!!

(Moonlighting forever............long live Sir Bruce and Dame Cybill :if they were english!)

I live in Sweden and here the season 1&2 have been available for a while (since march), and season 3 is about to be released in november. It's region 2, the same as what works in the uk, so for you not to have anything sounds really strange.

I couldn't wait and bought them from amazon.com, I have a region free DVD player though

I watch the region 1 on my computer and region 2 with my dvd player.
The region 2 dvd's unfortunately don't have the episode commentaries.

Here's the store where I found them, anyway:

No commentary? That's awful

Yes, it is! If you want the real deal you need a regionfree player. Or move to the States.

I'm in the UK too, and got the DVDs from Amazon.com and played on my region free DVD player. I couldn't be without the commentaries!
