Columbia TriStar will release Dawson's Creek: Season 2 before the end of 2003. This 22 episode, 4 disc set will include bonus trailers and "exclusive added value," but there's no word on what this is. No date has been announced for the release of the set.
I bought the complete first season yesterday at Best Buy. I never really watched the first seasons on TV. I watched The Pilot and The Dance last night. Not bad. I actually enjoyed them.candygirl wrote:From tvshowsondvd:

You can view the cover art here.Columbia Tristar Home Entertainment is officially announcing today the December 16th release of Dawson's Creek - The Complete Second Season on DVD. This is a 4-Disc set featuring 22 episodes that pick up right where the first season leaves off. The running time is listed at 977 minutes, and it is presented in 1.33:1 full screen video just like it originally aired. Audio is digitally mastered and presented in English Dolby Surround sound, and it is closed captioned for the hearing impaired. Spanish and Portuguese subtitles are included. List price is $49.95 in the U.S., and CA$59.95 in Canada.
Extras-wise, Columbia usually doesn't provide too much on TV-to-DVD sets, but this time they've made an exception! The Dawson's Creek - The Complete Second Season package squeezes in Audio Commentaries (from Kevin Williamson and Executive Producer Paul Stupin), an Interactive Tour of Capeside, the ability to check out the "Dawson's Creek Summer Diaries", a DVD-ROM Link to the Official Dawson's Creek website, and bonus trailers.
Additionally, the back of the box mentions that this release "Features brand new music selected by the Executive Producer". You may be asking, "What kind of a 'special feature' is that?" In our opinion, Columbia is doing a great job here of giving the consumers a heads-up. They are saying that the music rights to songs used during the original broadcast of these episodes were either unavailable for DVD release, or else the rights cost so much that it would drive up the price of the set. So they got the show's Executive Producer involved (at least one of them; 7 people have been given that credit during the 6 year run. For Year 2 it was Kevin Williamson and Paul Stupin, so we hope it's one of them who was consulted). This person helped choose new music which should be an adequate replacement that is cost-effective for DVD production, yet still mostly invisible to the fans as it should strike the same mood and play the same role in telling the stories. We thank Columbia for being up-front about this issue, and we hope all other studios take note!
Anyone who purchased the Dawson's Creek: The Series Finale DVD that was released last Tuesday has seen this cover art included inside, and knows that there is a $5 rebate card for Season 2 enclosed as well.
