Hercules season 5 DVD details announced

[marycrawford]

TVshowsonDVD.com has just posted the official details of Anchor Bay's fifth season DVD box set for Hercules: the Legendary Journeys, including a picture of the box art. Here are the details, italics mine:

As we mentioned last time, this has a $69.98 SRP, for a 9-DVD set. Besides the 22 episodes that comprise the show's next-to-last season, it also contains a long list of supplements:

* Audio Commentaries by: Kevin Sorbo, Michael Hurst, Eric Gruendemann and more! (Yay!)
* Interviews with Cast and Crew including: Kevin Sorbo & Michael Hurst, Paul Robert Coyle, Michael Levine, Hudson Leick, Joel Tobeck, Noreen Tobin & Gene O'Neill and more!
* Featurette: "Bringing Monsters to Life at K.N.B. EXF Group" (ETA: This was already on the fourth season box set, as falzalot pointed out.)
* Featurette: Dailies from "Stranger in a Strange World" (ETA: And so was this. Mistake in the listing, or what?)
* Behind-the-Scenes Interviews with Cast & Crew (um, yeah, see above! So good they listed it twice?)
* Photo Gallery
* Direct Access Scenes
* CD-ROM including Director and Actor Bios, Series Trivia, Chronicles, and Production Drawings

Note that there are usually several stores who sell the box set far below the listed price once it's closer to its release date; right now Best Buy has it on pre-order for $69.99, but that price usually drops to $50 or less. Also, Best Buy probably has an 'exclusive bonus', but these are not as special as they were for the first two seasons; you get 30 minutes of mixed cast/crew interview clips taken from the other interviews.

Dude, you're absolutely right! And 'Bringing Monsters to Life' was in the 4th season set too. Hmm. I think this has to be a mistake. I really can't imagine them adding the same extras twice. OK, I can, but I'd rather not.

Mary, thinking of telling TVShowsonDVD

Well, at least we know what the dvd set cover looks like, even if some of the details are incorrect.
