'24' Set for Second Round on DVD
By Brian Ford Sullivan
CHICAGO (thefutoncritic.com) -- 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment will once again give viewers the chance to catch up on one of the longest days in Jack Bauer's life. The studio announced over the weekend it is set to release "24: The Complete Second Season" on DVD on September 23, just in time for its third season debut the following month.
And unlike its first season release, the seven-disc set will feature a large assortment of extras. Among them are 44 deleted scenes, episode commentaries from the cast and crew, two "making of" featurettes and alternate endings. The producers credit a six-month lead time to create the set as a reason for the plentiful extras. The previous season was rushed together in order to hit store shelves in time for its second season bow.
The set will again feature all 24 episodes in anamorphic widescreen and Dolby 2.0 Surround with an MSRP of $69.98.
Bear in mind that we have not gotten official confirmation of these specs from the fine folk at Fox. Check back with us, as we'll definately keep a watch on this very explosive news!
