So I bought Supernatural S6 today (PSA for my fellow Canadians)

posted by [personal profile] rockstarpeach at 05:36pm on 13/09/2011 under
I wasn't really in a hurry, but I was at the grocery store and the Best Buy is right across the street, so I figured what the hell.  I'm gonna buy it at some point, right?

Anyway, I'm looking through the DVDs and I find it for (I think) $63.  I think 'wow, that's kind of steep for SPN.  And I want the Bluray, so I wonder what that's going to cost me'.  Then I realise I'm holding a set of DVDs with a special bonus T-shirt.  Which I don't want.  So I put it down and pick up one from the rack next to it, without the T-shirt.  That one is somewhere in the low $50s..

I put that back down too and then I'm wandering around for a while looking for Blurays.  You think they'd be right next to each other, right?  No.  So I find them and I see they again have two sets - one with a T-shirt, one without.  The one with the T-shirt is $89 and the one without was $75.

At this point, I'm thinking the regular DVDs look like a good idea.

And then I see the little sale tags underneath the display.  The set without the shirt is on sale for $54.  Great!  And the set WITH the shirt is on sale for... $47?  So anyway, that's obviously the one I bought.

And now I have S6.  Yay!  And also an extra special bonus T-shirt!  That... looks like it might have been made by an eight year old in a Honduran sweatshop for a nickle.

So the reason I'm telling you this, is if you're in Canada and are planning on buying S6 on Bluray and want to save yourself forty bucks (and want a really crappy T-shirt that only comes in size Large), the sale ends on the 15th. 

Oh, also, I've already watched 'The French Mistake' commentary.  I now think that episode is funnier than I used to and yet I dislike it even more.  Huh.

I got my season 6, too, but from Target. Therefore, I have an extra disc with comic con footage.

Can I ask...have you seen the Comic Con footage? Is it worth having? I am going back and forth on buying it or not, but if I did, I would buy it from Target (it's my favorite store). Just trying to make up my mind. Thanks!

I'm just curious, but there is no hurry. I appreciate it either way.

I think I heard the comic con footage was from 09, just the panel that's on youtube, but it's still probably better than the t-shirt. I wouldn't really have cared about any extras, I just wanted the cheapest one :)

I probably wouldn't fit the t-shirt, so I figured the disk was better.

Good for you. I need to get my DVD's now. Especially after meeting several of the cast members last week. (I'll do a post and picspam later). I also need to get Sanctuary season 3 as well.

Blah blah blah... :P

So why is it funnier but you dislike it more? (I'm never buying the DVDs since I have all the seasons on my laptop, so I won't get to see the commentary.)

Bite me :P

I don't even know. I probably think it's funnier because I watched the outtakes and there's about twice as much Dean and Sam bad acting, which was the best part of that whole episode. And I think I like it less because the way Sera and Ben and Bob talked about it sort of made them sound really narcissistic. Like the entire episode was written to amuse them with absolutely no thought for how it would affect the show or if it would even be any good.

Meh, whatever. Not like we didn't already know that.

You love me.

Ah, I see. Yeah - what a bunch of entitled asshats they are. They should make it up to us by doing a 'Sam, Dean and Cas are transported to an alternate universe where all they do is fuck each other all day long' episode.

That is the episode that I'll never wanna watch again, and I certainly will never watch with any kind of "commentary".

In my country there is only the first season on sale. Maybe the second on the tv. I haven't know for sure. I hate to see them with different voices.
But my Mom was so funny. I was at home one the Falsom Prisom Blues was aired. And my Mom watched for the first time the show. (She insisted.) And when the gost appeared, she said "oh this show is creepy". And I said "yes, mother, because this is a horror show". Maybe she thinks I'm strange now :-)

Yeah, I'd love me some Misha commentary :)

There are a couple of extras on the bluray, I think. There's a few interviews with random people about random things, and an episode or two of the anime. But I haven't watched them, I'm not sure how good they are.
