Finally it's available and in the proper format.
Fox studios has confirmed that all original music will be included in the release in addition to a CD with the best music from the show and The Practice cross-over episode "Axe Murderer". This is all that I wanted and more from the release of one of my favorite shows!

I love this show. I love it so much that when it was released on DVD in the UK I got copies imported to me and bought myself a region free player. It has been so wonderful having these shows when no one else in America does at the moment. It feels like my little secret. But I am worried over the state of the DVD's.
This set will be 32 discs. Originally I thought they'd just be rencoded versions of the British DVDs... That would have been more comforting. But here we get 5 seasons on 30 discs. The first season is full frame and the rest widescreen. Then disc 31 has a new retrospective featurette, and 5 or 6 vintage featurettes. Also an episode of "The Practice" when Ally crossed over and a music video.
The 32nd disc is curious. Fox has announced the set but has not stated if the music has been left intact. I can't see it being changed as a majority of the stories Need the specific songs chosen. They are not random. Also the characters mostly sing them live. It be practically impossible to change the music. Yet I am still concerned as this is fox and you would think they'd advertise the fact no music was changed... But disc 32 offers hope as it is a "Best of Ally McBeal" soundtrack. I am hoping these will be new songs not incorporated on the previous 4 albums released for the show.
The album included seems to be Fox's way of saying they too believe that the music was pivotal too the show. Quite recently Fox confirmed- that Yes= ALL OF THE MUSIC IS INTACT!This makes this a most have for anyone who loved this neurotic, short skirt wearing lawyer and her zany friends.
The soundtrack is the gigantic let down of this set. The press release led us to believe there would be previously unreleased music on this album. Bull****!... Read more ›

I'm absolutely thrilled to finally have this series on DVD. I have been waiting on this great and funny show to come out on DVD in the US for many years. I remember laughing out loud many nights at this wacky show. After doing some research I decided it may never come out in the US and began researching how to play other region DVD sets since this show was available for Region 2.
If you're thinking of getting this DVD set in Region 2 format, don't worry. Playing it in the US was not hard. The UK based region 2 DVD set is a PAL video format that must be converted to NTSC format to view on a US TV. Fortunately, this isn't hard. There are some DVD players available that do this conversion automatically. Your DVD player must also be multi-region or region free. A quick google search revealed some hacks that could be used to convert certain DVD players to region free.
I purchased a Phillips DVP 5982 at Best Buy. It took 30 seconds to type in the code using the remote that allowed me to have this player work with region 2 DVDs. The video conversion worked like a charm without me doing anything.
Do your own research, but it isn't hard to watch the UK Region 2 DVD set in the US. I'm only sorry I waited so long to give this a try. I can't wait to watch more episodes.

...not the product since that relies entirely upon the issue of the music that originally aired with the episodes. Special excerpts and clip collections are all we in the U.S.A. have seen of Ally McBeal on DVD up to now due to the large incorporation of popular music in the show. Many episodes of Ally had the closing ten minutes or so set in the bar where Vonda Shepard and guests such as Barry White would belt out popular, and unfortunately, copyrighted music. Also, the various characters would express themselves by dancing to popular tunes in a way that I just don't think would come across with muzak.
This has made DVD sets of entire seasons a licensing nightmare. Since Ally was in production from 1997 until 2002, just prior and a little bit after the advent of TV on DVD, this probably did not figure into the calculation of Fox as to how this would turn into a legal quagmire that could not be overcome. The same was true for "WKRP in Cincinatti" - the original masters of those shows with the music have been destroyed from what I hear - and then there also is "Daria".
Fox has been very tight-lipped about the status of the music that was woven irreplaceably into this show. Do you really think we could get this show for this price if the music was there? Based on Fox's past record of deleting music from TV shows and not telling anyone until after they collected their money, and given the state of the economy and the DVD market right now, I'd think they'd be telling the world if the music was intact. I also think they'd be telling noone if it was missing. So far their silence has been deafening.... Read more ›
