I am still in love with the Lions Gate "Gears" intro on their blu-rays. It has to be one of the most impressive studio intros out there. I love TV shows on blu.

An excellent show, and one of a number of intelligent shows that cropped up on the US cable networks. Networks take note.

I was under the impression that it would be IN a metal "lighter" package.

I found out about this show too late into its initial run, so I've been anxiously awaiting its DVD release. If it's priced well (a la Weeds), I may just buy it blind.

This really is a terrific show, and should be considered huge win for AMC and basic cable overall. It's great to see basic cable networks trying to compete with HBO with top tier intelligent programming that wouldn't "make the cut" on network TV. The fact that this will be a Lionsgate release also has me excited... as it likely won't cost $130 like HBO's HD releases.
