The sad thing about Australian DVDs is that it often takes forever for Saturday morning cartoons to get released here. Sometimes never.
We had the first volume of Garfield & Friends but never the rest, and now it's out of print. Had to torrent the whole series because of this.
Our version of Boomerang really sucks now. It no longer airs all those classic cartoons minus Looney Tunes, which are uncut here.
It also now just a place to cram old school CN shows. Got worse when preschool shows like Horrid Henry and Chuck & Friends came on there.
The Flintstones ended up in a channel we have called Fox Classics. Not sure if fellow Hanna Barbera shows migrated to there as well.
With Viz's redub of Sailor Moon. It was originally meant to come out in February, but it got delayed until this month, which is out now.
Madman was a bit secretive about it. But it had to do with them making a deal with Toei to let them remaster the footage themselves.
So their release didn't end up like how the American DVD & Blu-ray turned out. I've read it received complaints over shoddy remastering.
I've only watched the first two episodes on my copy so far, and I gotta say. The new dub is way better than the DiC(HeD) version.
