A few weeks back we brought you news of Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment’s decision to release FlashForward season 1, part 1 (first 10 episodes) to DVD on February 23rd. We were initially surprised by the decision to release the first 10 episodes as a package, but many of you who voted in our poll said you’d consider making the purchase, so clearly it’s a worthwhile move from the powers that be. If I recall correctly, LOST had a similar part 1/ part 2 DVD release (in certain regions) during its early days.
Anyway, ABC/Walt Disney have released the artwork for the DVD package, which you can see above. My first opinion is that it’s pretty uninspired. They’ve basically slapped the promotional poster on the cover and had done with it. There’s nothing intriguing about, and to be honest, I expected a bit more effort. That said, it wouldn’t surprise me if they update the cover art before the release date. I guess the main juice is in the DVD content. I can’t say the show has met my expectations (so far), but I can see why this package might be an attractive option as there’s some potential in there, somewhere.
Should you wish, you can pre-order the DVD now for $20.99 from Amazon
Other DVD info: Runtime 430 minutes over 2 discs.
