Fans of
Moonlighting are anxiously awaiting the official announcement - with date and details - of the
May release of the shows first multi-disc DVD set. We don't have that coveted info just yet, but we have new info today about the extras, thanks to the new issue of
Video Business, dated February 28th.
The trade magazine has a spotlight story this week called "TV on DVD: Small Screen Grows Bigger On Disc," written up by Cindy Spielvogel. In the article, Spielvogel talks to Lions Gate and writes up this tidbit from them about the
Moonlighting supplements:
With its May release of the first two seasons of Moonlighting, Lions Gate will offer added value both inside and out. The series will be released in premium packaging and include commentaries with Cybill Shepard, Bruce Willis, and creator Glenn Caron along with other cast and crew. Featurettes will include the show's fans, who have been instrumental in both the marketing and creation of the DVD, (Lions Gate Home Entertainment's Marketing Director, Kajsa) Vikman says. The president of Moonlighting's fan club is even slated for a commentary.
Sounds good. Let's recap that list of information:
