TV NEWS ON JULY 21

http://blog.sitcomsonline.com/2012/07/digital-digest-all-in-family-complete.html Welcome to Digital Digest! We've got a light news week this week, but once we get past that, we've got not one, but two reviews for you this week, with Dynasty - The Sixth Season (Volume 1 and Volume 2) and Harry O - The Complete First Season. Let's get going! DIGITAL NEWS Fox wrapped up some loose ends (perhaps not completely, though) with their release slate for continuing sitcoms on DVD this week with their announcement of New Girl - Season One. The release is scheduled for October 2, and will include a nice collection of special features, which you can read more about here. We've already mentioned the September 4 release of The Office - Season Eight (DVD and DVD/Blu-ray/Ultraviolet Combo), but fans of more "classic" episodes of the series will see a special single-DVD release on October 16 with The Office - Secret Santa Pack. The $14.98 DVD will include four classic Christmas episodes of the series. The episodes to be included are "Christmas Party" (season 2), "A Benihana Christmas" (season 3), "Moroccan Christmas" (season 5), and "Secret Santa" (season 6). We told you just last week about Shout! Factory's October 30 release of All in the Family - The Complete Series, but now we know a bit more about the special features which will be included. Among those special features, we have a 40-page collectible booklet, a new interview with Norman Lear, two documentaries (Those Were the Days: The Birth of "All in the Family" and The Television Revolution Begins: "All In The Family" Is On The Air), both original pilots of the series, and the pilot episodes of the spinoffs Archie Bunker's Place, Gloria, and 704 Hauser. Finally, looking for that MOD release of the series Dave's World which was announced a few weeks ago? Well, it is coming very soon... on Tuesday.. with Dave's World - The Third Season! We don't know much about this set yet, but if we find out more about it, we'll let you know.
