Back in November we
had the scoop that the Canadian Broadcast Company (CBC) series
Intelligence is coming to DVD in all of North America on
April 29th. Now Acorn Media has given us more details, including extras and box art, for
Intelligence - Season 1.
The 4-disc set will list for $59.99 in the USA, and comes with video in 16:9 Widescreen and audio in English - Stereo. The 14 episodes will run approximately 676 minutes. Bonus material consists of Behind-the-Scenes Clips, a Biography of Series Creator Chris Haddock (
Da Vinci's Inquest), Character Descriptions, Cast Filmographies, "and more." Here's the studio description of this release, followed by a picture of the packaging:
This critically acclaimed drama from the creator of Da Vinci's Inquest takes you deep inside the murky world of organized crime and the cops who keep tabs on it. As a dedicated father, respected businessman, and big-time drug smuggler, Jimmy Reardon (Ian Tracey) feels the heat from outlaw bikers muscling in on his territory. Mary Spalding (Klea Scott), the ruthlessly ambitious head of Vancouver’s Organized Crime Unit, fears her rivals in the intelligence community more than she fears criminals. Together, Jimmy and Mary form an uneasy alliance that threatens to undo them both.
From Vancouver's mean streets to its high-rise offices, Intelligence shows the shifty nature of undercover information-gathering, where your deadliest enemy can become your closest confidant and treachery is taken for granted.
