Amazing. That just defies logic. Especially (as AD mentioned) since the other regions got the longer version. I'm going to have to do some digging and see if I can find out why that decision was made. I think we have a different distributor up here in Canada too, rather than MGM for those. It may also be there was more than one version of the master made for region one. Guess I'll find out more tomorrow.

Plus, as I understand it, no commentaries for either Citizen Joe or Threads. This is a first as far as I can remember...incomplete audio commentaries. Especially on Threads! I loved Citizen Joe...very funny (to me LOL) and Threads tied up tons of longstanding story arcs...Jaffa freedom, Daniel's ascension, Sam and Jack, Anubis...this almost more than any other episode should have a great...KILLER commentary.
This is just wrong folks...hey I'm ticked enough about it to look up and use a little frowny face here... and that's ticked.

Yeah I was sad about the lack of commentary too! The only commentaries were on the heavily technical episodes, and I'm more interested in story arcs.
It sucks you guys don't get the full version of threads. I saw the whole pete/flowers scene for the first time the other day and the interplay was just marvellous. The whole 'DAD' thing with Jacob, and the 'I'm distressed but I'm gonna play it stoic thing' with Jack was so well played IMO.

Wow. Well I'm glad I didn't go rushing out there to get the DVD today! And I'm also glad I kept the original Threads on TiVo. Something told me to hold onto it...
I guess this officially means that unless:
a) SciFi does something really screwy to their schedule again and replay the original Threads some day (heh. right.)
b) One were to purchase a Region 4 Disc player
or c) There's another version out there somewhere...
That we're pretty much never gonna see the original version again. That makes me really sad inside.

You know, I think your BED is calling your name, pal! Why don't you go see what it wants from you!!!
Okay...there have been some great questions for Amanda (I'd love to see more)...but if you could ask SAM a question...ANY question...what's the first thing that pops into your fron???
I know it's silly...and there's a huge raging debate over this...but my burning question is "What the heck is your middle name and real birthdate???? And while your at it, spill the beans on the guys too."
