Maybe another network will pick it up (I doubt it, but you never know)

One of the best TV Shows...period
I would give this collection a seven or more if I could, and it's good to see that other reviewers feel the same. The idea for the show was interesting to me, when I saw it advertised...but after seeing a couple episodes, I was completely hooked. Whenever it was scheduled to come on, I tried to make SURE I could see it, and if I missed an episode, I was bummed out the rest of the week. I was heartbroken when NBC decided to cancel it. I suppose it was just too "smart" for the average tv viewer, and you can see that as the season goes on, they use less perspective shifts and more direct, straight line story telling...and I was a little disappointed, but the show still beats most shows out there. I am SO glad they're putting it on dvd...it's practically mine already! lol

One of the best cop shows that people didn't "get"
Boomtown was unlike any cop drama out there. Boomtown was full of complex and orginal characters that remain constant through the shows run of 2 seasons. NBC viewers (most of them) didn't get the format so the people who loved Boomtown and wanted MORE of it had to suffer due to the Law and Order series which keeps dragging on and on. Boomtown was something special and still is to the people who fell in love with the stories and characters.
NBC was STUPID for letting go of this amazing show. This DVD should also add Season 2 even though it wasn't as orginal as the first it still deserves to be on this DVD! Boomtown will live on forever as one of the best cop shows out there! I really miss this show!!!
