I'll be back with a banner later

I can't wait for the DVD's. Only a few more days!

[Cris]

Oh, I so want the DVDs, but it will take months to be released here and when they do that, they usually sell the DVDs with no extras. *pouts*

I'm glad a dear friend gave me the S2 box from abroad, otherwise I would be stuck with DVDs with no extras. I have S1 with anything but the episodes. So not fair... [/rant]

[~DresdenDoll~]

At least you have the dvds I had a choice between buying myself the dvds I wanted and eating and well... I like to eat But hopefully they'll get less pricey on the amazon soon and I'll be able to order myself. Especially since I've only seen S3 once and I don't remember it in details.
I don't even know if they sell the US version here. I know they do the UK one and I've seen that thing that's supposed to be the French version (which majorly sucks. I couldn't handle more than one episode) but I'm not sure about US...

[palegreen]

That sucks. I will never understand why the same features can't be put on all DVD's no matter where they're released.

[forever young]

I agree! I never understood that, it doesn't make sense.

I loved season three.

[Cris]

Yeah, it doesn't make any sense.

Anyways, I will figure out a way to get them. The season has great episodes!

[forever young]

It sure did. Can you order it online from somewhere like Amazon, and get the US verison with the bonus features?

[Trip & Run]

Amazon's a good idea

[girl in a cardigan]

I am so excited about season 3 on Tuesday! It's definitely going to get me through my first day of classes

[Mandy]

I hate it when some stores have the "superspecialsekret" edition. Like at Target or Best Buy or something. Meh.

Can't wait to get my DVDs, too. And the new season is just right around the corner!

[girl in a cardigan]

Well, I was going to buy season 3 at Target anyway (it's the closest store to my new apt), but having something extra on it works for me

I am really excited to actually go through and watch the episodes again, now that I know how it "ends." I remember hating the Stamford episodes because I just didn't like Jim and Pam not in the same office. But now I think I'll be able to enjoy them as they are

[kbear78]

i always get my DVD's from Target...i don't know why...it just kinda happens...

and i agree with Jenn i'll be able to like it more, now that i know how it ends...i didn't know if i was going to buy this on DVD and then i went, 'Duh Kara it's the Office, of course you're going to buy it!'

[Firestar007]

Can't wait to see these episodes again

I can't wait to get the dvds.

I'm also getting it at Target though the Best Buy deal is tempting me

I hate it when stores do that.

[palegreen]

I'm getting mine at Target because I want the bonus DVD more than the Dundie & Bobblehead.
