I finished Season 1 today. Given the changes that were alluded to in the first season, I cannot imagine that Season 2 was certainly different.

I think once a show gets really popular you always get these silly stories. I wouldn't take too much notice of them!

I have now finished watching Season 1. Sadly I have a "very long wait" again for the first disc of Season 2.

I don't understand why you're waiting for Season 2? It was released on Amazon U.K ages ago, that's where I bought mine. If you don't live in England then all you have to have is a multi-regional DVD player and then you should have no problems and it is worth the investment. I wouldn't do without mine because so many times TV shows simply aren't released here.

Hope you get to see it soon.

Bec :)

Well I'm waiting on discs from Netflix. DA has become so popular that there is a very long wait on some of the discs, because all the copies are out and whoever put them in their queue first gets the next available copy. I'm way down the line for Season 2, Disc 1 apparently. Of course I could get Season 2 Disc 3 with no wait, but I don't imagine that would work as far as following the storylines.

Can't justify spending the money to buy the whole season at this point.
