US Futurama Season 2 DVD Release

There's some shaking going on with the region-1/North America Futurama Season 2 DVD release date. We currently have 3 possible dates:
  • August 12th: This comes from FOXTVDVD.com.
  • August 26th: That's what the FOX TV site claimed previously.
  • September 2nd: And this is what amazon stated. Not too official.

    I take it that FOX didn't change their website without reason, so we can hope for 08/12, but I'll see if I can get any additional word on it. However, the responsible PR company seems to be lost in a DNS-loop right now ... In any way, there's still some time left to clear that up.

    Incidentally, if you got the European Season 3 DVD set which has been released a few hours ago, take the time to watch it and then review it yourself.

    Also, the (final) Futurama Season 4 DVD set is in the extras adding step right now. (Says who? Me!)

    August 26th is the day Simpsons season 3 is released on DVD. I doubt that they'll release Futurama on the same day as the Simpsons. Usually Amazon is pretty acurate so I don't doubt September 2nd. But August 12 would be nicer...

    I hope it comes out on August 12!

    The earlier release the better. Amazon did screw up THE SIMPSONS Season 3 release date. For weeks they July 29th as the release date (which they just fixed last week).

    I cant understand why Australia, usually two years behind everyone else in everything has had Season 2 Futurama for a few weeks! Why is the US taking so long to get it?

    JUST THOUGHT YOU MIGHT WANT TO KNOW [-MARK-] THAT GOTFUTURAMA.COM IS TALKED ABOUT ON THE COMENTRY OF THATS LOBSTERTAINMENT ON THE SEASON 3 DVD. THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT HOW THE FANS RATED IT ONE OF THE WORST EPISODES AND HOW THEY ACTUALY LIKED IT. ANY WAY THOUGHT YOU MIGHT WANT TO KNOW.

    A few questions:

    1) Season 4 is the final? Isn't it up to five? Or are we talking production seasons?

    2) Season 2 DVD came out here a month or so ago. Season 3 came out in Europe a few days ago. Are we really going to have to wait 6 months for S3?

    1. Yes, the DVDs are in production seasons, thus Season 4 will be the final DVD set.

    2. No way to know yet, but probably yeah.

    1. Ooooh.

    2. Aaah.

    Can anybody verify, 100%, that the UK DVDs are AU-DVD player (i.e. Region 4) compatible? I have asked several specialist stores, who are stocking the UK DVDs, if this is the case, but none of them are sure. Any Australian fans who own the UK Series 3 DVDs?
