It's been over a month since we
broke the news that
Mad Men - Season 2 would be scheduled to arrive on both DVD and high-def Blu-ray Disc on July 7th. That information came from a pre-order listing at Barnes & Noble's online store, but the official announcement from Lionsgate hadn't been made at the time. Now it has, and
at Facebook (free registration required), of all places! There the studio has let us know that the official, finalized release date will be
July 14th, a week later than the previously reported schedule. Bonus material is listed as follows:
- Audio commentaries with cast and crew on all 13 episodes
- "Birth of an Independent Woman, Part 1 and Part 2" - from housewives to working women, this featurette examines the rise of female independence in the Mad Men era
- "An Era of Style" - this featurette explores the fashion of the 1960's and its lasting influence on designers today
- "Time Capsule" - interactive featurettes paying homage to historical events of the 1960's and the daring generation that lived through them
Pricing, according to pre-order listings at Amazon (which still do not have the date or other details on them, at least as of this writing) is $49.98 SRP on the
DVD, and $49.99 SRP on the high-def
Blu-ray Disc version. Package art for each version is shown below. Our thanks to reader Seth B. Doe for being the first to tip us off about the Facebook info!
