You probably already knew that all three seasons of
The Mighty Boosh, sold individually as pictured above, will be available this coming Tuesday,
July 21st, on DVD in the USA and Canada from BBC Video. What you probably don't know, though, is that these releases will get a lot of support from a "tour" of the cast around the country, including the upcoming annual San Diego Comic Con, where 200 lucky visitors will instantly get the exclusive t-shirt pictured at the bottom. First, here's more from the BBC about the releases and the tour:
THE MIGHTY BOOSH IS COMING TO AMERICA TO PROMOTE THE DVD RELEASES OF ALL THREE SEASONS
American audiences are officially invited to journey through time and space to the magical, bizarre and exciting world of The Mighty Boosh as BBC brings the cast stateside to celebrate the release of all three seasons of the BAFTA-nominated comedy series on three 2-disc DVD sets. Currently airing on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim, each set features the original UK episodes, exclusive footage not previously seen on Adult Swim and extensive bonus features to immerse both new and old fans in the peculiar and fantastical adventures of the "zoo-niverse." The cast kicks-off is US tour when all three seasons arrive in stores on July 21, 2009, for the suggested retail price of $29.98 ($37.48 in Canada) each.
