Pleeeeeeeeease !!

As you could see,my English is too bad to watch this "merveilleuse" (wonderfull) series in O.V . So,I pray any DVD editor to buy the copyright and I do promise lot of french people will rush to buy what they hope for many years : Centennial in french version.

We don't understand why the BEST series in the world is not already edited . Usually ,editors are hurried to edit bad movies or series,so we could expect than a "chef d'oeuvre" like Centennial with its golden casting could be in all the good DVD shop. I'm waiting for it and each time I read the Michener's book I see all the character's faces of the movie.

Hopefully yours
