A couple of weeks ago we brought you
a rumored release date for
Upright Citizens Brigade - The Complete 2nd Season on DVD: July 31st. That's not the date anymore. This morning the folks at Paramount/Comedy Central have formally announced this release, but they are showing the finalized street date to instead be
August 14th. Here's their description of the set:
Sketch comedy show revolves around the Upright Citizens Brigade, an underground organization "with no government ties and unlimited resources" dedicated to creating and monitoring chaos from their secure underground base. The show’s sketches depict chaotic or bizarre events in the world, events which are often directly engineered by the UCB. Another defining feature of the show is a series of real-world pranks, which tied in with the show's theme. Usually run at the end of each episode, these hidden-camera pranks feature the cast (as either the central UCB characters or other characters from that day's episode) interacting with real strangers.
Look for a re-promotion of the first season set to happen on the same day, and in fact the first set will also get a slight box art change from
what you've seen in the past: the bottom section will be moved to the top, and the top to the bottom, to match the composition on the second season set's cover. Same key art, same coloring...just switched around. Below you'll see the second season art, followed by the revised first season artwork:
