I had a gift card from a birthday or maybe my graduation one year.... I think it was like $10 for me. That made my day!

Has anyone listened to any of the commentaries yet? I was disappointed but not surprised that Forest doesn't have any commentaries. To be honest the only ones I will probably listen to ( for right now anyways) are the ones for five and six because as we all know a lot of sh!t went down in those episodes. The son's of saturn featurette was nice. It was actually better than I expected it to be....but then again I really don't know what I expected.

I haven't peeped the extras yet, still have two episodes to watch. I really love this season a lot, despite the flack I've heard it get for being lackluster. It's just such a tragic story, everyone referring to Lem and not seeing him.
And F*ckernado, it's the same style as S5, with the small dvd cases holding two disks in the smaller box case. I really think it's weak that they're like that. Sure costs this, and costs that..but hell, I want a bunch of fat boxes for my Shield rack! Double disk dvds are about the same in girth, and that's just not right.

Welcome to Tuesday, chemikalman! Kidding. I couldn't wait to get mine, but kinda wishing I had since I plowed through the four disks in 2 days. Boo. I thought I had checked and not seen posts about anyone getting the DVDs before me. Oh well, I'm still happy ... and happy with the price. Now the question is, with college football starting this weekend and the new semester where I work underway, will I find the time to watch the discs before the premiere of S07 on Tuesday? Actually, I'm also thinking of checking out the Labor Day sales on big-screen TVs. Football (with the pros starting next w/e), TS ... what am I waiting for?!

So.... I didn't bring a dvd player down to school because I use my labtop.... THE HARDDRIVE CRASHED!!!! Since Saturday I've been without it and I've been having to use the university's library! The new hard drive should be here tomorrow but I'm sure it won't be ready for me to use it until MUCH LATER!
That is why I will probably not be chatting and/or posting on TSR (or anywhere else!!!)
I did buy my dvd's at Target (friend got me a discount) and will watch the remaining dvd's before the new season begin.....TOMORROW! I'll be in the library all night if that is what it takes to get them watched and fresh in my head for tomorrow.

I watched the documentaries on Disc 4 first. Super stuff, man. Then I started in on the eps. First, I watch the ep, then I watch the deleted scenes, then I watch the ep again with commentary, then I watch the deleted scenes with commentary. "Saturn's Sons" is awesome! It's an extra on Disc 1. I got through half the commentary on ep 6:10 "Spanish Practices." this morning before work. I think I'll be able to get it done before 10 PM! I would have loved to have had a S1 - S6 marathon this summer, but with all the crap going on in my personal life, I'm just glad to have gotten through S6. The "Previously, on The Shield" recaps at the beginning of each ep have jogged my memory sufficiently enough, I suppose. Damn, I'm amped up for tonight! Got my Coronas with lime, some chips, and Rick's homemade salsa ready to go!!!!!!

I don't like that Sony doesn't put any chapter stops on their Shield DVDs. I mean, come on, chapters are supposed to be a given.
