This is a Great show, Dec 20 2011

Think of Mad Max meets Lord Of The Flies. Don't let the costumes, hair colors and makeup fool you. This show somehow pulls you in and makes you care about the characters and the world there now living in. For every teen that thought the world would be a better place without adults and think they could do a better job, think again. This is the world of THE TRIBE. How long could you live off tinned food (caned food) before you would have to organize farms? How would you get kids to work on a farm? Do you pay them? If so, with what? Or do you use kids as slaves? Who do you go to when you get sick? What to you do when all the antibiotics run out? All these and more are things that come up in THE TRIBE.
I have all 5 box sets that I bought from Amazon UK years ago, but now I plan on getting the USA version too.

Can it really be!? The Tribe on dvd in region 1 aka America!? This is the best news I've heard in ages! No more having to watch grainy/wavy region 2 dvds on crap bootleg region-free dvd players! I'm going to snatch this first set up as soon as it comes out! Cannot WAIT to own all 5 seasons. Really hope Shout! Factory will release all 260 episodes. This show is awesome!

The Tribe: Season 1 part 1 US release, Mar 31 2012

I've loved this show for years and was so happy that it is finally being released in Region 1. I highly recommend this series to anyone who likes post-apocalyptic dramas.
However, I was disappointed that there were no extras at all on this first set. The menus are extremely plain and only get you to the episode you want to watch. This first half of season 1 includes episodes 1-26. There aren't even any subtitles available for those who either need them or can't watch with the sound up. If this is the extent of the plans for the US releases then I would recommend that fans invest in a cheap all region DVD player(often a code can turn your DVD player all region) and just purchase the R2 copies for their extras etc. You can pick up the Region 2 FULL season sets for less than they are selling this half of the first season anyway. I am so disappointed that after such a long wait, this is all there is to show for it.
