Product description
Amazon.ca
This TV show about an RCMP mountie (Men with Broomss Paul Gross) from the Northwest Territories going to Chicago to hunt down his father's murderers ran for only a few seasons but has become increasingly popular over the years. Due South does a great job of taking Americans' views of Canadians, and vice versa, and giving them a surreal, comic twist.

Great shows. Love the pilot episode. Watched them over and over. Characters have such dry humor. Gordon Pinsent is priceless in these as is Paul Gross. The bantering between characters makes the show. Would recommend to all!!!

i love "due south" a lot and, as it is hard to find it with relatively good picture qualiiy and with english subtitles (english isn't my first language)and it is even harder to imagine that it will be in blu-ray quality any time soon, i think it was just the right thing to do to by it from amazon.ca. i already know by experience that canada made DVDs are often of a better quality than us made ones(especially pq...) and often have subtitles even if it's not mentioned anywhere. so i ordered it from amazon.ca. i was right. but the first two seasons's pq is about vhs pq... it is even mentioned in the warning in the begining of the disc ("...one can use this video tape (!!!) only for private... bla-bla-bla...). pity...
well, i'll manage somehow untill it'll apear on blu-ray (about year 2050?) or at least on DVDs with better pq (2020?). i am talking about pq a lot here b/c it becomes really important if one has big screen tv set, as almost every one have it now.
in the end it is better to have something than nothing...

I am since the very beginning of this TV SHOW a big fan. In the past I bought in United Kingdom all first & second seasons episodes (including the pilot) on VHS PAL tapes. Okay!
When Due South was released on DVD, I jumped on this offer because I wanted so much to see it in crystal clear picture quality with an oustanding sound (the soundtrack including musics is wonderful).
I do not know how they did this disaster but the distributors produced a "so worst" DVD compression solution that you can see big visual artifacts on all episodes. I do accept that I watch my DVD on a 50" LCD TV Set which displays more technical issue than a small TV Set, but I get perfect picture display with the Avengers 1965 episodes! Not really funny...
This is my most disappointing purchase from Amazon (.com, .ca, .fr, .co.uk). A so bad picture quality that I can get better picture quality playing the VHS tapes! Can you believe that! Shame on such greedy distributors that do not care of people who plainly love this outstanding TV Show.
I nevertheless bought the third season on DVD. As I never bought it on VHS Tape, I shall not be able to compare the disaster and will be certainly less deceived. Last but not the least: the pilot is published on this last DVD set! I am not sure that such distributors watched this TV Show one time in their life... (grin :-)))
Best regards.

5.0 out of 5 stars Due South Complete Third Series
Reviewed in Germany on March 20, 2016

DVD pünktlich angekommen, Qualität sehr gut und Fraser wieder super! Schade, dass es keine deutsche Synchronisation gibt. Der "neue" Ray ist gewöhnungsbedürftig, zumal er oft ziemlich nuschelt und schnell spricht. Allerdings kann man hier hören, wie gut die deutschen Synchronstimmen gepasst haben in den früheren Folgen. Es ist kaum ein Unterschied zu hören zwischen den deutschen und kanadischen/amerikanischen Stimmen von Paul Gross und David Marciano. Eben super gemacht!

5.0 out of 5 stars Season 3 does not disappoint
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 24, 2005

Any Due South fan will love Season 3, although not having Ray Vecchio(David Marciano) there and the chemistry between him and Fraser is a real miss. Callum Rennie brings a new aspect to the series, and he is very cute in a rugged kind of way. The humour is still there, Fraser is still wonderful, and the stories great. Can't wait for the release of Season 4. Please note only available on Region 1 DVD, still can't believe they stopped it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Under-Appreciated TV series

How could you NOT love this show?
It had adventure and mystery--Constable Benton Fraser leaves the Alaskan wilderness to come to Chicago and find the killer of his father.
It had comedy--Yes, stereotypical--the polite, gallant Canadian versus the rude, brash American. But it WAS funny and not at all demeaning.
It had romance--especially between the mounty and his superior officer (Camilla Scott)
It was about friendship--Benton's and Ray's
It was about family--the Vecchio's and Benton and his father
It had fantasy--the ghost of Benton's father made "guest" appearances throughout the series.
Humorous, but also touching and sometimes wise.
It had music--Wasn't this the first time Americans took notice of Sarah Maclachlan's songs in the sound track?
And where else would you get to hear Canadian folk-rock--"Akua Tuta" sung by Kashtin?
Or Klaatu singing "Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft"?
It had comedy--Benton dealing with his deaf wolf.
Benton dealing with his dead father.
Leslie Nielson as the admirable but bumbling Sgt. Buck Frobisher
Frobisher & Benton's father still dealing with their rivalry over Benton's mother
So I've gotten all the DVDs with all four seasons of the show. And if you're looking, you need to know: THERE ARE ONLY THREE SETS OF DVD's. They are labeled Season 1, Season 2, and Season 3. But the third set actually contains Season 4. Season 3 had 13 episodes. Season 4 had 13 episodes. The third SET (3 disks) has episodes for BOTH Seasons 3 & 4, but is labeled "Season Three." I had to really dig around to find that out.
