The Labor Day holiday does not impact the DVD world’s release schedule. Here’s a quick look at three new releases with comics connections:
- The Big Bang Theory: Season One
Has great geek cred. I’ve never seen it, but have heard really nice things about it.
- Next Avengers: Heroes of Tomorrow
This is the latest Marvel animated direct-to-DVD movie.
- Eli Stone: Complete First Season
Comics scribe Marc Guggenheim co-created the show.
Unrelated: Due to the Labor Day holiday, this week’s Pipeline Commentary and Review column will basically be posted overnight tonight.
I’ve only seen a few episodes of The Big Bang Theory. THe show owuld be more tolerable if the taller of the 2 geeks was not so stereotypically annoying. I mean annoying to the point of wanting to shoot him.
The show did have the benefit of having an episode air that featured the group of friends going to a Planet of the Apes movie marathon during the same week that Charlton Heston died.
I really enjoyed Eli Stone. I thought for sure it would get canceled after the first season since it was so different. I am VERY excited that it is coming back though.
