TV NEWS OCTOBER 5

http://blog.sitcomsonline.com/2013/10/digital-digest-hazel-wrapping-up-on-dvd.html


We're back once again with yet another edition of Digital Digest. This week, we've got a review of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers - Season 3. Let's get going!

DIGITAL NEWS

Three weeks ago, we mentioned that the fifth (and final) season of Hazel would be coming to DVD soon, and now, it appears that Hazel - The Complete Fifth Season has been tentatively confirmed for a January 14 release. The set will complete yet another series on DVD (we're always glad to see that happen!), and will come at a $34.93 MSRP.

TVShowsOnDVD.com came across another very interesting piece of news from Shout! Factory this week, and it isn't a show that we'd normally cover... but it is news for another reason! Apparently, Shout! Factory will be releasing the series NYPD Blue, beginning with NYPD Blue - Season Five.While this doesn't seem that big, it marks a new release of a series that Shout! Factory has never released before from the 20th Century Fox library, and considering that we haven't seen any Fox releases from Shout! Factory in quite some time, this gives us hope that perhaps some other series from the studio are on the way. We'll keep an eye on it!

That isn't all of the news from Shout! Factory for this week! Two more releases are in store for January, although these are just season releases of series for which we've already seen the complete series. On January 7, we'll get to see Barney Miller - The Complete Fourth Season. Then, a week later, on January 14, they'll follow up on Dobie Gillis with Dobie Gillis - Season Two.

CBS announced this week that they will be expanding their full-episode streaming app to even more users. The iOS app has been available for quite a while now, but now, it is also available for Android and Windows 8. And that isn't all. They'll follow up later this year with a Blackberry app. The app allows fans of CBS series to enjoy full episodes of all entertainment series on the CBS lineup within eight days of their original airing, as well as viewing of episodes of several vintage TV series such as Perry Mason and Star Trek.
