Sports Night

Hi everyone,

Just wondering where one can buy Sport Night season 1&2 on region 2 [PAL] DVD? Not sure it even exists as I'm only finding region 1 on the net.

Many thanks.

Exclamation Re: Sports Night

Hi,

Outside of the US (Region 1), it's not had a DVD or VHS release, and to be honest, is unlikely too. In fact, a lot of people won't even have heard of it. It's only been because of "The West Wing" and "Studio 60 On The Sunset Strip", that people began to hear about it. If you want it, get the Region 1 boxed sets.

For those who don't know, this is another behind-the-scenes-of-television series, but a comedy show, from Aaron Sorkin, but set behind a sports news television series. It more famous stars included: Peter Krause (of "Six Feet Under"), Felicity Huffman (Desperate Housewives), Joshua Malina (The West Wing), Sabrina Lloyd (Sliders), and Robert Guillaume (in everything under the sun... see here).

Re: Sports Night

you might recall this old post of mine Pezerinno ... still the same situation I believe - highly unlikely to be released in any other region/definition

Prices can be checked at these two different sites:
Sports Night: The Complete Series 10th Anniversary Edition - Compare Prices
DVD Price Search - Price Check (Sports Night: The Complete Series 10th Anniversary Edition)

"10th anniversary edition" complete series R1 SD DVD 8-disc boxset out in Sept
- two seasons, 45 x 22 minute episodes; replaces an earlier and now OOP bare bones release from Disney, and very unlikely to ever be released on R2 or HD formats

Re: Sports Night

Have watched this through over the last few days; wasn't sure at first but after a couple of episodes I really got into it. Shame it was only two seasons. It is for sale in the classifieds if anyone is interested
