What took them so long, anyway? I was into Witchblade for a while (in a non-interactive way, since I didn't get involved in fandom until a few years ago). I'll probably get the DVDs, even though it was one of those series where I liked the idea more than the execution. It's been so long since I've seen the show that I'm curious to find out how it strikes me now. And there were some episodes I missed.

Stupidity? Amazon had so many requests for the DVDs that they formed a "notify me when the DVDs become available" list that one could sign up for. That's why I know it has been announced. :) I sign up, oh, probably 4 years ago.

The concept was way cool and I thought the first season made a good stab at filling in the story. Not perfect but not bad. The second season sucked rotten eggs. I would be hard pressed to convince myself to buy the second season if it weren't in the $5 clearance bin, but since they're gamely adding it to the first as part of a "buy the whole series" release, I'm happy to accept it.

I'm interested to see how they hold up. We got out the Asian VCDs of the pilot movie not too long ago and watched them. I was surprised at how much I still liked it. :)
