Heroes Season 1 on DVD

The last episode (and somewhat lackluster) of Heroes aired about a couple of weeks ago and thus completing the hugely successful TV series. Soon it would be available on DVD and you can watch it at the comforts of your own home.

Overall the series is one of the best series ive watched so far. Never have i watched the first episode and be totally absorbed by the plot, intrigue, the excitement and ultra interesting myriad of characters introduced throughout the season. Never have i seen such diverse cast and they really played their well. Although the last episode was somewhat mild compared to the anticipated climatic ending, this series is till worth a second or a third run through the entire series.

A seven DVD set will be release on August 28 with a slew of additional contents that would surely be a best buy for any fan of Heroes.

• Unaired Pilot: The Tim Kring Cut with Audio Commentary – A full 73 uninterrupted minutes of the original, unaired, extended pilot episode, as Heroes’ creator Tim Kring first envisioned it, with a character never seen.
• The Making of Heroes – From concept to pop culture phenomenon, a behind-the-scenes look at the hottest new series on television
• Special Effects – The secrets behind the eye-popping visuals that give the Heroes their amazing powers.

The series will also be released on HD-DVD on the same date as the DVD release. It’s for those who have a HD player and who wants to enjoy full unadulterated 1080 goodness (which sure looks gorgeous on Claire Benette when doing closeup shots of her) and cinematic surround sound.
