Sucks.

 

[Linius]

That's incredibly lame. I only buy blu these days or bust.

 

[dead souls]

That sucks.

Of course they're already taking orders on the Blu-Ray for the new season of American Horror Story.

Well, one of the two shows is massively popular and the other is called The Americans.

Definitely sucks for the huge fans though. I don't buy sets of anything anymore, too much new stuff to watch, but I couldn't imagine purchasing a dvd set in 2014. The whole point of buying a set would be to have something that looks better than a cable/satellite feed.

From TVshowsonDVD:

Well, shit.

 

[Dan]

That's one way to keep me from gifting it to someone for Christmas. Well done, Fox.

 

[Avon Barksdale]

Is it really that expensive to produce a Blu-ray set in 2014?

 

[dead souls]

Is it really that expensive to produce a Blu-ray set in 2014?

It's probably less that it's expensive than it is that it just isn't worth the effort. For all the critical praise basically no one is watching the show, so I'd imagine the BR set sold terribly.

Exactly. If anything, they should be phasing out the DVDs.

Man, American Horror Story started losing me with season 3. I tried the first couple episodes of the new season, but it just wasn't doing anything for me.

 

[Cornballer]

Da! THE AMERICANS returns to FX on Wed., Jan. 28 at 10 p.m.

.

 

[Deku Tree]

Sweet!!!

 

[Niraj]

The Justified+The Americans two day combo is so good. Can't wait.

 

[Linius]

This and Justified air during the same periode now? Cool.

 

[Cornballer]

A few brief notes on how S3 is set up via EW:

Spoiler

Q: Will there be a time jump when The Americans returns?

A: The third season will pick up at the tail end of 1982, which is about a four month time jump. But Phillip and Elizabeth have yet to decide whether or not to allow Paige in the Seconds Generation Illegals program. “There’s been a struggle mightly with that question that came up at the end of season 2, which is: What should we do?” executive producer Joe Weisberg says. “And they’re not in accord.”

Nothing too spoilerish or surprising in there.

Yep. What a great start to FX's year.

Also, Sepinwall was on set last week:

Kind of hope they do that tbh.

 

[Currygan]

I'm halfway through S2 and I sincerely think The Americans is one of the best tv shows in recent years. It's intense, it's got a superb 80s setting, and the acting...wow, Matthew Rhys and Keri Russell just dominate the show with their incredible skills. And I'm not even talking about Margo Martindale, woah... her character Claudia is made of pure steel

Poor Noah looks like a dork compared to them, but either you got that edge or you don't, and he doesn't. The fact they also use local actors to play the Russians is also very refreshing (and the guy who plays Arkady is hella good as well.....great presence)

this show is so fresh and original, you find yourself rooting for the Russian superspies most of the time, but also for the "good" guys...its ambivalence is perfectly balanced. i really wish ,more people would watch this, because it's truly top quality

 

[EnlightenedMint]

Can't wait for season 3 and I just realized it's starting next month, hopefully they keep up the great quality.

 

[Grizzo]

Kind of hope they do that tbh.

Oh yeah Martha just got lucky in season 2. She's way past her expiration date. I can't wait to see her reaction when she learns that Clark is a fraud.

As for Nina... she might still have some tricks up her sleeve. Who knows what they'll do with her.

I'm excited!

This might be the same region-locked version, but try that. Also, here's the version on FX's youtube channel.

That is really good.

 

[Dan]

I'm going to keep hoping this thread gets bumped because of a surprise Blu-ray release.

Cool promo.

 

[Cornballer]

- One more new trailer (quotes from critics and a few quick clips)

Looks like a lot of it is recycled from the longer trailer that they released a few weeks ago.

 

[Cornballer]

New photo:

We're 30 days away from the premiere. Also, screeners are out:

Just finished first two eps of #TheAmericans S3. Multiple layers of awesome in what's shaping up to be a drop-the-mic kind of season.

Sorry to gush, but 12 hours after watching The Americans S3 premiere episodes, I'm still thinking about the show.

 

[Crabernacle]

One of the best shows on television at the moment. I'm hoping this is the season The American's is recognized for its brilliance and stops getting snubbed by the Emmys.

Spoiler

Like that's going to happen.

 

[RatskyWatsky]

Looks like the quality train is still rolling. Nice. So glad FX will have at least one quality drama left once Justified ends.

 

[Deku Tree]

Wow. Exciting news.

There's also Fargo. Too bad The Strain and Tyrant are meh and they cancelled The Bridge.

Is season 2 still not out on any streaming platforms? Or is fx doing reruns?

S2 is on Amazon Prime. I imagine they'll do a set of reruns before the new season. They just started rerunning Justified last week.
