cellioIn checking for updates on the first season of Blake's 7 (still delayed until September, sigh), I noticed that the second half of the second season of West Wing will be released at the end of July. (The first half came out at the end of April, and it followed the second half of the first season by something like 8 months, so I didn't expect this for a while.) Order placed. :-)
A few minutes later I got mail from them advertising the new Harry Potter book, which can be ordered in either the adult edition or the children's edition. Huh? I didn't know there were two different editions. Is that true here in the US too, or is it a UK thing? I wonder what the nature of the changes is. Aren't these books written for kids in the first place?
And speaking (loosely) of the UK and TV, according to Neil Gaiman there will soon be a US release, on DVD, of Neverwhere, a BBC mini-series. I saw the show a couple years ago and enjoyed it. It's being produced by A&E for US release only, in an odd turn of fate. So I can get US TV from the UK and UK TV from the US? :-)
