"Due South" marathon
« on: May 26, 2009, 08:55:44 PM »
Due South Marathon



This is a community marathon of the Canadian TV series "Due South".
The start is the television movie which lead to a TV series and thus became the pilot of the TV series.
This movie was included in the third season set of the Canadian release and is included in the first season of the US release.

Please give notice if you are planning to join this marathon. The complete series is available for $19.99 at Amazon.com.
We will hold off watching the first season until everyone who is interested joining in has their set at hand.

My plan is to have a rather slow pace. I propose a 3 or 4 episode per week pace. But if the majority wishes to go faster, we can adjust the pace.

For $20 why shouldn't it be? Would be great if you take part in the marathon ;)
I believe that you would you enjoy it.

Here a small clip of one of the episodes to get an idea of the dynamic between the two main characters.

We'll wait, of course. And besides, Rick, the only one who has said he's in until now, can only start end of next week at the earliest anyway.

Sorry, I won't participate. I've got too many shows already. And while I remember Due South as a fun show I don't think I'd watch the entire show.

Hey Tom

I followed your link to Amazon as that is such a great price, but they claim the full series are seasons 1 to 3. I note however that you have a 4th listed in the marathon??
Can you advise.

Thanks
Rich
