In Canada, the last season was broken into 3 and 4, but in the US, they aired as one complete season 3
That's what I figured, which is why I bought it. It makes sense to be aired as one season, with "Mounty on the Bounty" as the sweeps week two-parter, especially since Vecchio says in "Call of the Wild" that he's been gone a year. That explains why the set was labeled season 3, but it still doesn't explain the shocking lack of CKR on the packaging.
I'm not a fan of the Canadian sets either, really, with their double-sided discs in overlapping packaging. One of my season 1 discs started to crack from the force needed to remove it from the packaging (I've now transfered them to other cases). I'm enough of a videophile that I'd like to get the Canadian season 4 at some point, but it wasn't in the budget and I wanted to watch CotW, so I stooped to the American set.
Why can't they package these things better? due South was one of the first shows I remember going to DVD, but it's always had the worst packaging.
