Best Buy’s DVD Severance Package

As mentioned in The Office Season 2 DVD store specials post, Best Buy is selling an Office DVD Severance Package, including DVDs for both Season 1 and Season 2, and a nice little set of goodies.

The box design is clever — it looks like a Mini-Me version of a real business moving box. It’s the perfect size for storing your Office DVDs, and maybe even a couple more!

And you must try calling the phone number listed on Dwight’s business card:
1-800-984-DMPC

Target’s Booze Cruise video blog package

As mentioned in The Office Season 2 DVD store specials post, Target is selling The Office Season 2 DVD with an extra goodie: a video blog filmed by Jenna Fischer during the “Booze Cruise” episode.

A few notes about this package:

  • At my local Target, there were Office DVDs labeled with the Booze Cruise sticker, and others that weren’t. Make sure you get the one with the sticker! The sticker says “Target Exclusive Bonus Content Booze Cruise Video Blog!”
  • The Target package has a total of four discs, same as the standard set. While the Sunday ad shows that Disc 4 (the one with Pam) contains the special video, in my package it was Disc 2 (the one with Dwight). The disc is clearly labeled “Includes Exclusive Bonus Content: ‘Booze Cruise’ video blog.”
  • The video blog is about eight minutes long.

The Office Season 2 DVD bloopers

Sure enough, someone has posted the 17-minute blooper reel from The Office Season 2 DVD, but who knows how long it’ll stick around …

If you can’t wait to get your own copy of the DVD, watch them here and here.

Feel free to comment on the bloopers here. (If you prefer to remain unspoiled, don’t venture into the comments section.)

The Office Season 2 DVD review

DVD Talk has published a review of The Office Season 2 DVD set, and it’s quite positive! (As if you weren’t already antsy enough about getting your hands on a copy.)

One thing in particular got me excited:

One extra that pretty much all fans will love is the blooper reel, which runs a fantastic 17 minutes, and features the majority of the cast breaking character or flubbing lines. This was a very entertaining featurette and shows how hard it is to be funny in a deadpan way. This kind of extra can be hit or miss, but here it hits hard.

Yay for hard-hitting bloopers!

Thanks to everybody who sent in this tip!

Season 2 DVD menus!

the office season 2 dvd

Thanks to OT reader Nick for pointing me to the screenshots of The Office Season 2 DVD menus over at DVDActive.com, which I have to say, are beautifully designed. (Scroll all the way down, past the box shots.)

But Nick asks, “Am I crazy or are there no Jenna Fischer Home Movies? I thought she said in her blog they’d be on there.”

Good question … perhaps these are just preliminary designs?

SPOILER WARNING! Includes titles to all ten webisodes.
