Is this series forgotten today?


It was cancelled 12 years ago. It's not on Netflix and I assume it's not on any streaming service or on TV. Who remembers this series? What brought you to this message board today?

(I look forward to a reply in the next two years)

Not by those who appreciate great TV.

Not by me. I'm watching the DVDs right now. Excellent show, don't know why no one watched it.

I'm in Australia and remember it well. I tracked down a season 1 DVD a few years ago... It was for region 1 so I had to remove the region lock from my DVD player to play it (which might be illegal but it was as close as I could get to doing the right thing).

FX Australia recently aired Boomtown, billing it as a unique show "from the creator of Justified".

But I'd love to see it on Netflix (here and obviously internationally).

That's interesting. I live in Australia and I thought virtually all DVD players were all regions, and are sold as such. The only ones I've come across that aren't are the cheap TVs with built in DVD players. All the dedicated SVD players/recorders that I've had played all regions.

But yes, that aside, it is an excellent series.
