"Despite my obsessive dvr-ing of Waking the Dead on BBCAmerica, I somehow missed season three. All I have to say is "Wow!" This is such a fantastic season of this series. There isn't an "off" episode in season three. I will agree with a previous reviewer that the two-part episode "Walking on Water" is just outstanding; probably my favorite so far, maybe ever. I really recommend Season Three if you haven't seen it. This show is just fantastic.
As a (hopefully) helpful aside for fans of this series: Further seasons of this great series aren't currently available from the US Amazon, but you can get Seasons Four, Five, and Six from Amazon.co.uk. The prices on entire seasons are currently £11 ($16)-£12 ($17) each, which is pretty fantastic. Shipping wasn't too bad either. With the pound being weaker against the dollar, now might be the time to order. If you haven't ever ordered from Amazon.co.uk, your same log-in and password will work. You will need a multi-region player as these are Region 2 and will not play on standard American players. Amazon carries some Phillips brand multiregion players for anywhere from $50-$75, right now. I hope this information is helpful to other fans of this fantastic show!"
More to come

"Just so you will know. This series is still being produced on the BBC. the Seventh series just aired starting April 2008. At this time, BBCAmerica has no plans to air the seasons 5-7. They will be bringing the next series in Wired in the Blood in 2009.
So--Go yell at the BBC to air Waking the Dead--you will really want them to do so--(spoiler alert)due to the fact that there is resolution to Boyd's missing son."
One of the best British crime shows

"Well here in the US we who love this show are finally up to series 3. This season really found it's stride especially after the four incredible episodes from series 2. What I really like about these DVDs is that you can view the parts that the BBC America network decided to foolishly cut for commercial time. My favorite from this series is "Walking on Water". I won't give away any spoilers but the performance from Craig Kelly was simply amazing. I really recommend this series to lovers of crime drama."
I Bought An all Region DVD Just To Watch This Show

"This is, undoubtedly, one of the best acted, well written television programs ever produced (and I say that with no pretension knowing what has come before). My wife and I decided to forgo blue-ray to buy an allregion DVD and have bought all 6 seasons released thus far on Region 2 UK DVD since it's taken 3 years to get season 3 released. If you have yet to discover this program and enjoy intelligent, gripping, well thought out and presented mysteries...this is your show."
