Gerry Anderson United States' DVD Release Dates!

I hope the Q&A below is helpful to others:

Quoting A&E NYC:
"In response to your question regarding US DVD release dates on the
following programs, see below:"

1) Thunderbirds - first two sets released 27 February '01
2) UFO - TBD
3) Space 1999 - first two sets released 30 January '01.
These dates are, of course, subject to change.

Question Two: Can you comment on what determines the release date on UFO and
why no release date has been determined for UFO?

A&E in NYC: "We have quite a few titles coming from the Carlton library -
eg, The
Prisoner, The Saint - we also get a great deal of programming from our
networks, so we have a lot of programs to put through the production and
sales pipelines. Release schedules change on a regular basis, so it could
drop in - although that's not likely to happen over the next 6 months or so.

Thanks for that information, Tracy! It's not surprising that UFO is
at least 6 months away, but I wonder how popular THUNDERBIRDS will be
in the USA? I must be biased, since I'd think that UFO would be a
more popular release than THUNDERBIRDS would be in the USA...

Ah, the age-old question. Which series is best? Seeing as this is the UFO
list, I have no doubt what the majority of the listees(?) think, but with
any luck, we'll see for ourselves when the DVDs hit the stores some time
next year!
