...assuming you're in North America, some of these DVDs may not be NTSC standard - they may be PAL - so even though they're region free you'd need a DVD player that converts PAL to NTSC.

I haven't purchased any of the shows you mentioned, but I have purchased some TV productions in R2 PAL (my player converts and is region free) and the quality is often excellent.

Question "Authority", the mainstream media sucks - Go Independent and hold BOTH parties accountable instead of just the other guys!

  Surprisingly, a lot of the super cheapies do. But my Pannies don't do PAL> NTSC, at least not out of the box. And that's true of many other high end players as well.
  
  If you ask at a big box store about the deature they look at you like you've dropped from Mars.

  ...can't/don't display PAL (or SECAM for that matter). Unlike the rest of the world.
  
  So we need the conversion in our players.
