That show comes on Sat night on lifetime at 9pm, i think (check
lifetimetv.com for show times). The episode on Sun is the encore presentation
and it comes
on after strong medicine at 11pm. But my question is...is Ger really going
to be in an ep and which one is it?

Mine came. Very early! I'm very excited.
We've watched pieces-parts of "Only the Lonely". They're full-length

And I just got an e-mail from Amazon.ca that they've shipped mine, too
(for $29.21 Cdn, woohoo!) so I should see them on Thursday or Friday.
Maybe even tomorrow, if I'm really lucky!
I've started an October vamp film-o-thon. So far, I've seen the second
season of Angel, and the movies Nosferatu (the 1920's silent film),
Forsaken, Once Bitten (so *that's* where Jim Carrey got his hair from!)
& Blacula. Sometime in the next couple nights, Nick Knight goes into the

In playing with my set last night, I learned of 2 problems.
1-The set sent to me had no #1 disc (containing the first 5 eps), but 2 #2
discs.
2-Disc 3# will not play on either of my 2 DVD players (one is all region).
There's some sort of read error.
I'm still waiting to hear from DeepDiscountDVD.com about issuing a new set.

that it is the
FOREVER KNIGHT TRILOGY part one...its a FIVE disk set, including the
complete season... Is this different then what you guys have ordered? IT

As far as I know, there's just ONE set with the full first season. Some of us
ordered at a special introductory rate of some sort, which was raised, so we got
in at a cheaper price than others, but I'm sure it is the same set.
I think some of the original advertising said "some of the best episodes" or
something like that leading people to think there was just a few episodes from
the first season, but it is all of them.

The suspense is killing me! The amazon.ca website ties into Canada
Post's online Priority Post parcel tracking. I've never bothered with
any other shipments, but today I'm checking it every couple of hours to
see if the package has arrived at the Calgary depot yet. (The website
checkpoints it at various stages along the way.) It was shipped from
Toronto last night, so I figure it just might be here tomorrow! But no
updates yet.

We recently ran into a similar problem with some anime DVDs that my son
purchased while we were in Toronto for LCA. Our DVD player is only about 4
years old, buthe kept getting the error message too. Just for experimental
reasons, we decided to pick up one of the cheapie DVD players that Circuit
City was offering for $39.99. Oddly enough, after I paid for it, they
couldn't find the player in their warehouse and upgraded us, at no cost to
a Zenith ($69.99). The DVDs work fine on the new player. They wouldn't work
on the older JVC or on the Sony Playstation, but they are just great with
the new player. I don't know what age your player is, but you might want to
give this a try or if a friend has a different and newer DVD player, try
theirs.

The Amazon listing also says that these are the AMERICAN (not Canadian)

footage. Maybe somebody can post and correct them, if they're positive
we've got the Canadian version?

Amazon lists 5 pieces and the set I received from Deepdiscountdvd.com has 5
pieces. All three of the episodes I watched last night ran about 48 mins long.
(One seemed to run 50, but I could be off). I understand this is the length of the
Canadian versions. I read somewhere that the American versions ran only about
40 mins.
I haven't received my shipment from Amazon yet, so I don't know what lengths
those eps are, but I can't imagine Sony putting out 2 versions of the DVDs.
