only two audio commentaries? there's usually at least 5 :( i was looking forward to that..
i'm sure the deleted scene is just referring to the deleted scene from Grissoms Divine Comedy.

i guess we'll have to wait until October 14! everything is so late this year, stupid political debates :shifty: Canada can't even vote! lol

I know. Especially with the price of it, ($80.00 US?!?!) We're not getting all that much for our money. It's not too hard to have more commentaries and special features, is it? Especially when you consider the packaging for the DVD's that have been released by CBS so far, they're cheap and Chintzy, IMO.

I think they should have commentaries on "Dead Doll," "Goodbye and Good Luck" and the WoaT crossovers, just because they're major episodes. One on "For Gedda" would have been nice, too....What, was it too hard to get WP and Jorja to to it?

I am definitely not pleased.
 
I've seen it online for pre-order...not sure if I'm allowed to name the site but it's a big site where you can buy books and cds and such. :) $58.99 I'm sure it will show up in other stores and online for that or less.

BUT, that's what I paid for Season 7 which had a lot more with it, including more episodes. Geeze, if it's going to be a short season at least give us more extras. And by that I don't mean an episode of WAT. :rolleyes:

I AGREE. especially because they have a commentary on "Living Doll" so i just always thought there would be one on "Dead Doll" i thought for sure that "Goodbye and Good Luck" would have one. and WP has never done an audio commentary on CSI, in eight seasons, is it really that hard? and he's basically the lead in the show :wtf:
yeeea and on www.amazon.com you can pre-order it for $58.99 US but for what we're getting that's still way too much IMO
