Hi All, Just wanted to make mention that GAH Season One is due in Australia this month. Well at least it is advertised on ezydvd. It will be interesting to see what happens with the music issues. Certainly with Quantum Leap we ended up getting the same as R2 which had all the music intact. Does anyone have any info. Anyway for those that are interested. www.ezydvd.com.au/item.zml/785914Warren |

I didn't realize that other regions were being released with the music intact (not necessiarily for this show, but I didn't know that it has happened with other shows). I never looked into it before, but the series has been released on DVD in Japan. But Japanese DVD prices are completely ridiculous. They released 4 sets, each of which is over a hunderd dollars and contains only 3 disks. So I am not going to buy the Japanese DVDs just to get the music intact (though it might not even be intact). Still, the cover art is interesting, but it doesn't seem all that great to me. The cover art on US DVDs isn't all that great either, but it seems better than that on the Japanese disks.: www.amazon.co.jp/exec/obidos/search-handle-form/250-6278378-5716252Please keep us up to date on whether the music is still intact on the Australian releases. |

Will keep everyone up to date. Certainly its going to be on my buy list here. If you are interested the music problems with Quantum Leap are fairly well documented at quantumleap-alsplace.com/forum/showthread.php?t=159We think we had it bad with GAH. QL had music in just about every episode that got butchered at least in R1 R2/R4 got off untouched due to different music licensing. Warren |

Good News I just e-mailed the DVD company and they replied
Yes the TV Series as screened will be the same on DVD

Nice. I wonder how much higher the set will be...will it have teasers and unedited scenes too? If it is how it was screened on TV, that could mean deleted scenes.

You might find as well that some other stores will be selling it cheaper. Either way i will give an update when it comes out and how much I paid here for it. If the artwork is different from the US (which I have as well) will do a comparision and put up the information.
Obviously I will address the specific related music issues thave have been documented here and I still have my screening videos so I should be able to do a comparision with the aired version as well.
Anyway 2 weeks to go!

Well it arrived yesterday in the shops here in Australia. It looked just about exactly the same as the US version. But most importanly it appears that the copies are directly the same as the Us versions. Yes music changes. I had a quick look at the pilot and at least Help me Rhonda when the bus is pulling out is missing.
I will put up shots over the weekend when I can take some shots. This appears to go against what was said earlier. Does anyone have contact with AV Channel here that said it wouldnt be cut?
