I could be wrong (i often am), but usually it takes a really long time before tv shows are put out on dvd... We're only at the 8th episode of the first season right now, and ytv only airs 1 every week. So we won't even have seen every episode of the first season before christmas. I really don't think they would put it on dvd before airing all the episodes, because then everyone wouldn't watch the show anymore since they would have it on dvd...
I don't think it will be out before christmas if it does come out on dvd at all, but like i said, i could be wrong. lol

Hi guys,
No plans for a DVD release so far (although we're always hoping). You're right kimi - it usually does take a while and that is because it's only worth it once you have...
a. a bunch of episodes or b. a really popular show.
Both would be ideal. I think we'll have to wait it out a bit longer but keep your fingers crossed!

I think a DVD would be awesome. I've watched Dark Oracle a few times but I would defiantly buy it if it was released. Ever since Corner Gas came out on DVD i've wanted alot more Canadian shows on DVD.
I'd love to see Student Bodies, Seeing Things, An American in Canada, Vampire High, Supert Rupert, Radio Active, Edison Twins, Dog House, The Little Vampire, Squawk Box, Puttnam's Prairie Emporium & Mosquito Lake (Never seen it but a huge fan of comedian Mike MacDonald)

I find that I actually like watching the repeats of Dark Oracle because I always notice something new. I would totally love the 1st season on DVD. Now that all the ones in the first season have aired do we know when they will make it available on DVD?

Hi everybody,
Just a comment on this DVD thread...
It's wonderful that you'd like to see Dark Oracle on DVD. Right now we're working really hard to bring you an amazing second season as quickly as possible. I want to say a little more about the DVD thing, because the truth is that a DVD releases can only happen under certain conditions.
First of all - as many of you know, the show is currently airing only in Canada. That's going to change, but until it does, I don't think there would be sufficient population awareness of the show (read: market) to justify a DVD release.
DVD releases are expensive and you have to bet on the fact that lots of people are going to buy. Once the show starts airing in the States and there are more viewers, a DVD release becomes that much more possible.
So we're still waiting for several things to happen...
1. More episodes 2. A wider international audience
I'll keep you guys posted on updates. Every little bit you do to get awareness of the show out there helps!
O.

Hi Omen. I just wanted to chime in again. Have you ever contacted Video Service Corp (VSC) there the company that has released Corner Gas, they will also be releasing the CBC drama This is Wonderland in May. They have also released a bunch of other canadian shows as well. They have taken a chance of many shows that may not have a large international audience and have been pretty successfull. Looking forward to season 2, hope it goes well. My little brother just started watching the show and he loves it Here's the link to VSC website www.videoservicecorp.com/

Any update on any DVD plans Omen? Have you been successfull in getting it broadcast in the States?
I wonder if it was shown on N like Degrassi is if that might help.

As the second season it is next to release, I thought that probably in some more months we have news about the release of Dark Oracle on DVD. The Show now is transmitted in other countries and languages. Also, it has won prizes, as the Emmy, and I think that all this increases the possibilities of a DVD release.
