A couple of weeks ago we brought you Sony's official
announcement for
Bewitched - The Complete 2nd Season, due out on
October 25th. The 2005
Bewitched film starring Nicole Kidman and Will Ferrell is due to hit stores on the same day, and most of the copies are coming with just that film. But, as we mentioned in our previous story, there will also be copies of the new film bundled with a "
Bewitched TV Sampler." We now have some word on what that exactly is.
The single disc sampler will contain the first 3 episodes of the Elizabeth Montgomery series. We're not sure if the episodes will be in the orginal black-and-white or if these will be colorized versions of the episodes. The keepcase cover art, shown below, is entirely in color...something which has indicated colorized episodes on the season set packages.
List price is $28.96 for the bundle, which is the same SRP as the film by itself. As we said, this 2-pack bundle of the sampler and this past Summer's film will be available on
Oct. 25th, and we've found out it will be available in various retail sources including
Amazon.com (currently $17.98 pre-order price) and
BestBuy.com (currently $24.99, but possibly cheaper during the week of release). Here's the cover art of the bundle, and a nice close-up of the sampler itself (same general art design as the first season set):
