A satirical office comedy centered around a morally conscious man, Ted, who works for a Research & Development department at a morally lax corporation. Better Off Ted, starring Portia de Rossi and Jay Harrington, on DVD December 1st!
We
posted news way back in May that Amazon.com had put up pre-order listings for
Better Off Ted - Season 1 on
DVD ($29.98 SRP) and
Blu-ray Disc ($39.99 SRP). The studio, Fox Home Entertainment, had not formally announced the releases yet, though, so we didn't have a release date on those listings. And, in an fairly unusual twist, Amazon kept both listings up, but stopped taking advance orders on them.
Today Fox announced to retailers that
Better Off Ted - Season 1 will arrive on DVD this coming
December 1st. No Blu-ray format version was included in the announcement, just DVD; we're unsure at this time if this will come later, or if it means Fox changed their mind about a high-def release, or if Amazon perhaps was mistaken to list it in the first place. For now, the only release we have evidence of (notably per the studio description above) is on standard DVD format, on the first of December.
The 2-disc set will run 263 minutes, and the cost is confirmed to be at $29.98 SRP (CA$37.98 SRP in Canada). Video is widescreen, and audio options are English 5.1 Dolby Surround, and Spanish Dolby Surround. Subtitles are in English, Spanish and French. No bonus material was mentioned, other than promos of other Fox TV-DVD releases. We have the disc-by-disc episode breakdown for you below. Package art isn't available yet, but stay tuned!
