Region 1 Buffy DVD listed at Amazon.com
Jonathan Black
Just thought I'd mention this in case anyone's interested.
While other parts of the world, like Australia (R4), the UK and
some other European countries (R2) are getting this release a
little earlier, at the end of November already, there is still no
offical press release on the USA (region 1) DVD release of Buffy
the Vampire Slayer - Season One. However, Amazon.com looks to be
the first to list it for pre-ordering. Release date is given as
January 9, 2001 with a $59.98 list price discounted by 30% to
$41.99.

No details of extra features, but it's safe to say it will have
the at least the same ones and the foreign releases. There was
talk of it having more, perhaps the actual unaired pilot (not
just the script). I heard a wild rumor that they were trying to
include this on the R1 release, but that the actress who played
Willow in it was not cooperating. No idea if that's true, or even
if it can be, but anyway, I'm not holing my breath, I'm assuming
the extras will be the same, anything more is a bonus.
