BATTLESTAR GALACTICA season 4.0 DVD out January 6

TVShowsOnDVD has the official announcement of the BATTLESTAR GALACTICA Season 4.0 DVD set and all the extras. The American release date is now officially January 6, 2009, and RAZOR (both aired and longer DVD-only cuts) will be included.

Back in July we reported that industry sources had passed along Universal's tentative plans to release Battlestar Galactica - Season 4.0 on DVD...and that it would clock in right at the end of the year, on December 30th. This morning the studio formally announced this release, including the finalized street date. They've adjusted their original plans by a week: the schedule now shows they will put this in stores on January 6th.

You'll get a 4-disc set that's loaded with bonus material, in addition to the 10 episodes from the first half of the final season. Disc 1 will contain both the original broadcast version (88 mins.) AND the Unrated Extended Version (101 mins.) of the special feature-length story Razor, which is already available separately. The half-season's 10 episodes are contained on the remaining three discs, along with plenty of extras:

Episodes:
  • He That Believeth In Me
  • Six Of One
  • The Ties That Bind
  • Escape Velocity
  • The Road Less Traveled
  • Faith
  • Guess What's Coming to Dinner
  • Sine Qua Non
  • The Hub
  • Revelations

This has only been announced for DVD; there is no Blu-ray Disc version listed. Video on this release will be presented in Anamorphic Widescreen. Audio soundtrack will be English - Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround. Subtitles are going to be in English and Spanish. The cost for all of this will be $49.98 SRP.


Let's hope they add Blu-Ray as well. I wonder if "The Music of Battlestar Galactica" is the video that Bear McCreary showed at his LA concerts this spring?

The 4.0 DVD and a Seasons 1-4.0 DVD box are already out in the UK, but as usual without the American bonus features.

No sign of packaging art previews yet...but if you don't like them, maybe you can use this gorgeous fan-created box art instead.

Then it looks like S4 will begin around January 20th, given the typical two-week spread between DVDs and premieres of other shows.

I feel bad for anyone who bought Razor already, as the S4 DVDs will have everything the Razor DVD had.

Of course, that also seems to be the reason that they are jacking the price up to 50 bucks for a half season... or were the 2.0 / 2.5 DVDs really 50 bucks at release?

@anon...Yes well, those of us who need to snatch up every DVD the moment it comes out know: when you're hooked, YOU'RE HOOKED. :)

Meanwhile, taking the longer view: for people catching up with the BSG series down the road, having Razor as part of the package will be very convenient, right?

No blu-ray announcement makes me cry. I want them to release everything on blu-ray. I already have Season 1 on HD DVD but thats as far as they got before HD DVD kicked the bucket.

It's great that RDM was able to record commentaries for the eps he never did podcasts for.

And is there any reason this can't be out before Christmas? Just like last season's release and the entire promotion of the show it seems like they look for the most counter intuitive time to promote the best show on television and Sci-Fi channels only chance at legitimacy. 5:30am reruns anyone?

Any word if this contains longer edits of certain episodes, like "Revelations?" I enjoyed the longer cut of "Unfinished Business" and I sure would love to see the longer version of "Revelations."

ProgGrrl said...

@anon 3: yeah it doesn't seem from this announcement that we're getting any longer cuts from 4.0 besides RAZOR. A shame. Maybe they're all just too darned busy finishing 4.5, Caprica and Virtuality?

If they really wanted to include "Razor" as a part of A set, they should have repackaged Season 2.5 since that is where "Razor" would have fitted in chronologically.

By adding it to Season 4.0 just shows that they are trying to get rid of their overstock by dumping it on people who already owns it.
