Cartoon Network DVDs

[CjFilmz]

I'm not exactly sure if this belongs in the DVD forum or the CN forum. Oh well, I guess i'll post it here.

Does anybody know if there will be a boxset of the 3rd season of Ed, Edd and Eddy? Also, I heard a while back, like July of 2007 that Duck Dodgers (2003 series) may be getting a DVD, but havent heard anything about it since then. Was it scrapped?

Why would there be a box set. Yes, the thrid season is to be released, but box sets are usually saved to air the entire series with CN. :shrug:

[Dr.Pepper]

Yeah I don't know. I hope that they come out

[Draft]

I still don't get why the 3rd Season of the Eds isn't out yet

My guess on Dodgers is that It'll be released like TTA!/Animaniacs in about 5-10 years (Under the WB classics line)

[Dogasu]

While talking about DVDs...is it safe to assume that there won't be a second Powerpuff Girls set?

[Umandsf]

No. According to an article I read yesterday, CN plans to do a year-long celebration for the girls' ten-year anniversary. If it becomes popular, then we could probably see some more.

[Beefy]

Also, I heard a while back, like July of 2007 that Duck Dodgers (2003 series) may be getting a DVD, but havent heard anything about it since then. Was it scrapped?

Just like how they're going to release season 1 of Megas XLR in November 2005. Don't hold your breath.

Sorry, I didn't understand the meaning of box sets. To me, box sets are a collection of several seasons of a show on VHS or DVD. :sweat:

[Wanted]

Well, that's not what anyone else considers a box set. I don't know if you found out what one is, but I'd rather not patronize you by explaining what one is if you already have figured it out.

That can be true though. Box sets could either be in seasons or the entire series. It just depends.

[Isondill]

If we don't get more season sets of The Powerpuff Girls on DVD I will write Cartoon Network an angry letter. I'll have to ask that everyone here on Toon Zone sign it so we can get the point across. :p

[Draft]

Eh, petitions never work for the most part for animated seires (Except for that time, and that other time. That's it)

My guess is that once the WB Animated Series run out, they'll do a CN line like that, and start with Dexter and something else that had 52+ eps (C+C, JB, or Courage would be good canidates).

Have we gotten any info about what's replacing Jack? Cause it's rumored that it's megas and i'd sell my soul for it

[Wanted]

Can't be sure if anything is replacing Jack... because, all that's on Cartoon Network's release slate is Ben 10. WHY just Ben 10, I'll never fathom.

But, I will definitely co-sign your angry letter, Isondill.

[Darklordavaitor]

It's worth a shot.

Nothing. I think once we get all of Ben 10, CN will unfortuntely be finished with DVD's. Which is a shame, these are quality releases for a fair price. I just wish we could at least finish the good four that CN already started with.

As always, once the annual Warner Bros. DVD chat on TVShowsOnDVD.com comes around, we could ask what's going on with these series, if we get an answer.

I thought Foster's was still being released too? Wow, that is pretty fail. Like I said, all the shows will get a release ala WB Classics probably. I mean, there are probably more fans of Dexter, PPG, or Eds than Freakazoid (Though that doesn't always translate to DVD success, as South Park often places higher than Primetime TV shows like CSI despite having 1/8 of audience)

[Racattack!Force]

Yeah, they are still going to be releasing DVDs.

[Darklordavaitor]

I mean, there are probably more fans of Dexter, PPG, or Eds than Freakazoid
And I've been wondering this, myself. I mean, I thought that Animaniacs and Pinky & the Brain were proof that nostalgia, alongside a little help from a strong adult fanbase from back in the day, sells, since I'm sure that it's more than just 13-19 years who grew up on said shows that helped the sets sell so well, and that we could possibly get Dexter and Johnny out.

[AlienX]

It doesnt help that the dvds were pretty hard to find I never found any of the cartoon netowrk dvds at the popular chain stores like best buy except ben 10 .

[CjFilmz]

My local Wal*Mart usually carries new Adult Swim DVDs the first week or two they are released. Then a week or so later they mysteriously disappear for some reason.

I did see Teen Titans Season 1 there for quite a while, and now its gone like the AS DVDs.

Who buys DVDs at the shop any more? A rubbish selection and you have to pay the dreaded sales tax to boot.

Anyway, the Cartoon Network really does need to ship out more series boxsets. Although tight now they're still way better than Nickelodeon.

Yeah, don't you order online? :shrug: Anyway, most of the DVD's that Cartoon Network gives out are season sets. Has Nick ever released an enitre season of Spogebob on DVD?

[Wanted]

YES, it has (http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/releases/SpongeBob-SquarePants-Complete-1st-Season/3068). Multiple (http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/releases/SpongeBob-SquarePants-Complete-2nd-Season/3829) times (http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/releases/SpongeBob-SquarePants-Complete-3rd-Season/5022). I'm beginning to think you've been living in a box.

[John Pannozzi]

All I have to say is if Cartoon Network hasn't released (or at least announced) a DVD set of Cow & Chicken and/or (insert other CN shows available in DVD set in Austraila from Madman Entertainment) by December 31, 2009, then I'm importing the Austrailan DVDs.

[Racattack!Force]

YES, it has (http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/releases/SpongeBob-SquarePants-Complete-1st-Season/3068).

I don't watch Nick much...and I never was a regular watcher when they realeased those. So just because I didn't know about the season boxsets means I've been living in a box? :shrug:

To be fair, that's one of the few series they actually have (Anything else besides Zim and R+S?)

I buy DVDs in store usually only in the 1st week cause they have a special sale

Better question.

Why even bother asking when you can save yourself the trouble and punch "Spongebob" into Amazon's search box?

[The Irishman]

Of course! How else would I have gotten Foster's Season 1 when I was at home.

I was thinking more in lines of the classic series; Johnny Bravo, Dexter, etc. Which I would like to see, but I do appreciate that newer shows, such as Ben 10 and EE&E have gotten releases.

In relation to Nickelodeon, we've had Ren & Stimpy, Spongebob and Avatar, but no Rocko (seriously, c'mon guys), Arnold, Rurgrats, Doug (thorny one there), Fairly OddParents, etc. etc. Are these series not also deserving?

But I'm guessing market forces are at work here. If there's not much demand (or rather, perceived demand) then the company in question is unlikely to risk money on a release that may not make them money; which is the real tragedy.

Ah, forgot about that.

But that's 4 Shows with seasons sets for about 30 shows, signifigantly less than CN has done, though Nick finishes most of it's series and continually releases them..

[AlienX]

Yeah thats true so were stuck with either a small collects of complete sets of shows that nick airs all the time avatar spongebob and series that only were able to get a release through a good company because nick underestimated there potienal and still dont release others invader zim RS
or incomplete series if various good cartoons just that they cant get a break and are the weakest in ratings in the big 3 cartoon network .

Is there a DVD on ben 10 you guys? My kid brother has always been wanting one, i figured i'd give that as a present on his birthday

According to Amazon and tvshowsondvd.com, there are 5: 4 season volume sets of the series (though season 4 won't be out until August 5th), and one for the live-action movie Ben 10: Race Against Time.

[Wanted]

If only we had sites like this (http://www.google.com/) or this (http://www.amazon.com/) for the purpose of research, we'd all be better off. Man... if only.

[Anarky]

I recall Duck Dodgers was featured in an opinion poll by Warner Home Video either last year or in 2006. I voted for its release. After all, any series that has Porky Pig saying "My nipples are cold." DESERVES the DVD treatment!

[Sketch]

Are you freak'n kidding me? Warner is releasing BAKUGAN on DVD and when we don't have Duck Dodgers or Megas XLR on DVD? There are no words... None that are nice anyway.

Chowder does get pretty good ratings, but Teletoon produced George, so may have a more decisive effect in the matter. Besides, Chowder is only 3/5 the way through it's first season.

I say wait until all of Tiny Toons, Animaniacs, Freakazoid and hopefully Pinky, Elmyra & The Brain are on DVD, then maybe WHV will release Duck Dodgers, Taz-Mania and the Sylvester & Tweety Mysteries.

And I agree with Tednut & veemonjosh: Give us more Ed, Edd 'N' Eddy; Foster's Home, Billy & Mandy and PowerPuff Girls on DVD, soon!

Doesn't seem like we're getting any more Ed, Edd and Eddy DVDs. Or Billy and Mandy. Or Powerpuff girls. Or Fosters.

I highly, highly, highly doubt they're going to put any other series on DVD any time soon.

It's getting ridiculous that there's no guarantee that a full series of anything is going to be released on DVD anymore.

Animaniacs, King of the Hill, Gargoyles, Rescue Rangers, Gummi Bears, all these CN sets...

Bakugan is more popular than either of those, like it or not.

Though I don't know why, as Australia is getting at least PPG Season Two on DVD.

[zoombie]

Why haven't they released Ben 10: Secret Of The Omnitirx, CN has always been good with their movies on DVD. For example Teen Titans: Trouble In Tokyo, Billy and Mandy Big Boogie Adventure, Transformer pilot, etc.

For goodness sakes they released Race Against Time already, and Secret Of The Omnitrix is older than that.

I'm still waiting to be notified of the release (http://www.amazon.com/Life-Times-Juniper-Lee/dp/B00005JOIS/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1210601920&sr=1-5) of the Life and Times of Juniper Lee (one the few shows that was actually getting better just before they killed it).

Does George of the Jungle even count as a Cartoon Network DVD. It's not a CN Original, is it???

[Darklordavaitor]

Why haven't they released Ben 10: Secret Of The Omnitirx,
Because it's going to be on the season 4 set.

[Blackstar]

The new George of the Jungle is a co-production of CN studios and Teletoon.

[zoombie]

Because it's going to be on the season 4 set.

I checked everywhere, and I don't see any announcements of Secret Of The Omnitrix being a DVD extra. CN has released their tv movies as their own DVD release in the past, why would they change that now.

I think if and when Secret Of The Omnitrix is released, it might include some of the Ben 10 shorts, 1 10 - Ben 10 User Generated Experience as extras. Maybe even an episode or 2 of Alien Force, though I think they should save that for later.

The new George of the Jungle is a co-production of CN studios and Teletoon.

I don't think so, if it was then wouldn't it have the CN Studios Logo in the Credits, all shows produced (or coproduced) by CN Studios have it

[Silverstar]

George is a Canadian production, but it airs on CN, so that must count, since there's a DVD.

[Racattack!Force]

I don't think so, if it was then wouldn't it have the CN Studios Logo in the Credits, all shows produced (or coproduced) by CN Studios have it
It's a co-production, which means it has both their names on it. :sweat:

[Mickialla]

It's a co-production, which means it has both their names on it. :sweat:

I know that's what it would be, but that's just the thing, GotJ doesn't have the CN Studios Logo at all. For example, Out of Jimmy's Head is produced with Brookwell-McNamara, therefore, the Brookwell-McNamara and the CN Studios logo show up in the end credits. George of the Jungle only has the Teletoon logo and a note saying that the show is based on the original George of the Jungle produced by Bullwinkle Studios, with a picture of Bullwinkle holding up a sign saying Bullwinkle Studios. There's no little CN Studios Logo thing where the logo opens up, showing a scene from the cartoon and then closing like most shows produced/coproduced by CN Studios do.

[ChibiGoku]

Well, the series might be actually an aquiration. If it was a Co-production with CN, I seriously seriously doubt that Toon Disney (or was it the main channel...?) in Japan would be scheduled to air it next month.

I think that with Jim Saples's exit, and Jennifer Davidson's death, there's a bit of an executive shuffle at CN, and that's what's delaying the DVDs. Remember when CBS and Viacom split back in 2006? It was the same thing.

[Darklordavaitor]

Omintrix update: While skimming through The Cartoon Cartoon Show on my DVR today, I noticed a commerical that states that the movie is coming out to DVD, but only at Wal Mart. Not the first time I've heard of a case like this, but strange nonetheless.

[Mickialla]

Well, the series might be actually an aquiration. If it was a Co-production with CN, I seriously seriously doubt that Toon Disney (or was it the main channel...?) in Japan would be scheduled to air it next month.

I doubt it OR Chop Socky Chooks are co-productions with cartoon network. The CN logo is nowhere to be seen in the credits at all. Plus, George of the Jungle is supposed to be airing on Nicktoons Network in the UK and Disney Channel in Latin America; I doubt those networks would legally be able to air GotJ if it was a CN co-production. Teletoon is the only one on which the shows could even air because a number of shows (Hi Hi Puffy, Out of Jimmy's Head) aired/are supposed to air on Teletoon.

[Draft]

I doubt it OR Chop Socky Chooks are co-productions with cartoon network.

That's because Chooks isn't.

I swear I remember reading George was, of course I have no proof but i'm pretty sure it is.

Does Wayside have the credits for Teletoon? It would be in a similar situaton as it is a co-production between Nick and teletoon

I just checked the announcement on TVShowsOnDVD.com, and you're right, Secret of the Omnitrix is nowhere to be seen. I could of sworn that I read that the film would be in the set.
Secret of the Omnitrix was converted into a movie by CN, but Secret of the Omnitrix is actually 3 episodes combined into 1 movie. They are the first 3 episodes of season 4, and they will be on the season 4 box set. This becomes obvious when you visit the Ben 10 site and click episodes. It's listed as 3 episodes. It's also a bit more obvious since the other countries aired it as 3 seperate episodes. Look at the run time for the season 4 DVD set. It's 286 minutes, basically the same as the other 3 seasons (292 minutes, 299 minutes, and 280 minutes). That shows it will have Secret of the Omnitrix in the form it was always supposed to be as- 3 seperate episodes, or maybe it will be shown as the movie, which would explain the difference in minutes, because they won't need to show the intro and conclusion 3 seperate times.

Yep. He's right. Cartoon Network airs a lot of co-pros, but just because a co-pro airs on CN doesn't mean that CN co-produced it themselves. Often, they're not technically or creatively involved in a show, but nonetheless acquire the broadcasting rights to it regardless, even when it's made by a studio outside of CN.

EDIT for CLARITY: WAYSIDE isn't a co-pro. Technically, if i'm not mistaken. It's borderline syndicated, or something along those lines.

So if what you're saying is correct, Ed Edd n' Eddy, Courage the Cowardly Dog, Mike Lu and Og, Sheep in the Big City, and Codename Kids Next Door would ALL be considered CN co-pros????

[LoneToonman]

So if what you're saying is correct, Ed Edd n' Eddy, Courage the Cowardly Dog, Mike Lu and Og, Sheep in the Big City, and Codename Kids Next Door would ALL be considered CN co-pros????

What???? Not at all and nothing of the sort. All that jazz. I fail to see how you derived that kind of meaning from what I wrote. Those are all Cartoon Cartoons. The thing with co-pros, if it's a less famous co-pro, it will more often than not be labeled as such at the end or beginning of its credits. Like Code Lyoko for example. It says it's a co-pro very clearly in big letters at the beginning of its credits. Chop Socky Chooks is listed as a co-pro at the end or beginning of its credts (i forget which one). Therefore it is a co-pro. The same goes for Storm Hawks. Not all co-pros list themselves as co-productions in their credits though, so clearly that's not the "rule".

Co-pros tend to be international in nature, often made by Japanese or European production houses. None of the shows you mentioned were made and produced by independent studios overseas, first of all. Or am I mistaken. I'm assuming I'm not the only one here who knows about this sort of thing. Feel free to pitch your theories as well.

One other element that might clear up some confusion is this:

If CN airs a co-pro, it might have been co-produced by two or more studios outside the United States (i.e. Code Lyoko) but not CN itself, even though they're the one airing it.

Or it might be co-produced by an overseas studio and CN (i.e. IGPX, Powerpuff Girls Z, and Big O II) where CN had a considerable amount of input in the matter, in terms of the production itself.

This is because Cartoon Network/Williams Street etc. serves a dual function of both an animation studio and a broadcaster, among numerous other things.

True, true. If there's one thing almost more confusing than the technicalities of co-productions, it would be overseas broadcasting rights for animated television shows :confused:

[Draft]

So if what you're saying is correct, Ed Edd n' Eddy, Courage the Cowardly Dog, Mike Lu and Og, Sheep in the Big City, and Codename Kids Next Door would ALL be considered CN co-pros????
Well, most of these series aren[t co-productions. They were specifically made for CN, but were made by outside studios (Currious Pictures, AKA Productions, etc). However, this is different from the likes of what we believe George is, which is a cartoon that is specifically made for 2 networks.

oh, LordToonman, technicly EEE is foriegn because it's located in Canada

Triple-post much, LoneToonman?I saw the first 13 episodes of Storm Hawks dirt cheap for 9.99 at Walmart the other day.Now, if only I knew whether this show was worth buying... I should watch it to find out.

Ed Edd n' Eddy is made in Canada cuz that's where AKA Productions is located, but IIRC, EEE doesn't even air in Canada.

And George isn't made only for Cartoon Network. I've said it before, but it's going to air on Nicktoons in the UK. So if it was a copro for Cartoon Network and Teletoon, it could technically be called a CN original, and it would therefore be impossible for it to air on Nicktoons, correct??

Not really. "The Fairly OddParents" was made for Nickelodeon, but it actually airs on Jetix in Latin America. Which is a Disney owned channel. So you can't really use overseas airings to help your debate. :sweat:

[John Dorian]

Well, Nelvana does (I think) owns international rights to FOP, as also My Gym Partner's A Monkey.

[Racattack!Force]

Well, Nelvana does (I think) owns international rights to FOP, as also My Gym Partner's A Monkey.
So they are pretty much the ones that decide where it airs overseas, I'm I correct? Which means the channel it airs on in America has no effect on where it airs in other countries, right?

[John Dorian]

Yeah, kind of like The Backyardigans and Little Bear, both Nelvana/Nickelodeon co-pros (well, The Backyardigans). Nick has rights to both shows here in the U.S., while Nelvana (I think) has rights internationally.

[Mickialla]

So if I understand you guys correctly, you're saying that Chop Socky Chooks and George of the Jungle are Teletoon/CN copros in the same sense as EEE, Courage, Sheep, ML&O, and KND are, only with Chooks and George there made for two networks???? This is extremely confusing. I thought it was a lot easier to simply say they were acquirations from Teletoon. But I still hold to my belief because if the shows were copros for BOTH teletoon and CN, it would have to have the CN Logo SOMEWHERE, on the credits. But all I see is teletoon teletoon teletoon. Usually in a show that's produced in house, co produced, or that CN had a hand in producing (i.e the Eds, Courage) say somewhere at the end of the credits "Produced for Cartoon Network" with the producers (usually Brian Smith, Linda Simensky, Mike Lazzo, etc) underneath. With Copros like Hi Hi Puffy or Transformers, they say "Produced for (coproducer) with THAT studios producers and then another frame with the CN producers. That screen's not on Chooks or George, the cartoon network name is nowhere at all on the shows. Therefore, they cannot be CN originals and Teletoon originals at the same time.

[Racattack!Force]

Well, both shows do list "Executive for Cartoon Network" near the end of the credits. Chop Socky Chooks "EfCN" is Daniel Lennard, while George of the Jungle's is Terry Kalagian. The reason you don't see that special "Cartoon Network Studios" thing is because it isn't made in-house. It does show that other CN one where sound waves come from old Carton Network logo, showing that they had a part in the show's production. :shrug: If you go to Cartoon Network Video, check out both of the shows. It will list Cartoon Network executives and show a special CN thing at the end (in GotJ, this is followed by a thanks to Bullwinkle Studios)

I know, I've already seen the Soundwave thing at the end; that's what got me wondering if they were CN originals or not. I didn't see the Executives for CN thing yet, I'll go check that out.
Just one thing: If only CN originals have the soundwave thing (even the ones with the in-house logo at the end), how come cartoon cartoons produced by Hanna-Barbera like Dexter, PPG and JB DON'T have the soundwave thing??? But the episodes produced by CNS DO have it.... Is it just an ownership thing or what???

[strawberryjuice]

I hope camp lazlo comes out to DVD. Also is Dexter ever gonna get a DVD release? I think that show really deserves one. Jhonny Bravo and Courage too.

not really "cartoon network" but what ever happened tot he xiaolin showdown releases? theres was only a seaosn 1 release. That was it.

[strawberryjuice]

The new George of the Jungle series gets a season set in August. (http://tvshowsondvd.com/news/George-Jungle-Season-1/9528)

:\

my god that show hasn't even been on for a year! :eek:

[Racattack!Force]

Because they were just Hanna-Barbara produced. Cartoon Network didn't really have it's own studio at the time. Later, it was because they wanted to separate them...or something. I don't really know. Only post-2003 cartoons have it for some reason. :shrug:

[The Irishman]

The Hanna-Barbara studio was shut down for several months before it was re-opened as Cartoon Network Studios. The PowerPuff Girls were the last series to be produced at H-B and are therefore the last to use the name in the credits.

I know that, I don't remember why I made that remark

Well, it was made for Teletoon and CN since they co-produced it (see this topic for numerous pieces of evidence, and actually i need to check turnerinfo if they have a press release, cause I think i remember readin it there). Well, there are cases when it could be both (Like Doug w/ Disney, but that's a diff situation). Overseas stuff gets very complicated, since many channels that are domestic do not exist (Like [adult swim] airs on Bravo). Let me put it this way, do you consider Chooks an original? Most people would say no, since it aired on Teletoon signifigantly before it (To my knowledge), and probably wasn't even rumored to come to the U.S. until it did. That's basically the same case for George on Nicktoons UK.

[Mickialla]

The Hanna-Barbara studio was shut down for several months before it was re-opened as Cartoon Network Studios. The PowerPuff Girls were the last series to be produced at H-B and are therefore the last to use the name in the credits.

If I recall the Hanna-Barbera studios was shut down in 1998 and the HB staff was moved into the WB studio. WB and HB were still separate entities, they just resided in the same studio. I think PPG was produced during this final hour of HB's history.
I remember that the Cartoon Network Studios name began showing up on cartoons just around 1999, but the studio was still technically Hanna-Barbera, only with a name change. After Bill Hanna (R.I.P) died in 2001, Cartoon Network Studios was no longer Hanna-Barbera because a lot of the Hanna-Barbera staff (Joe Barbera, Iwao Takamoto among others) became apart of WB Studios. The HB part of WB Studios was shut down and a new studio was opened for Cartoon Network Studios. I think it went something like that, I may have the details off a bit, but that's what I recall happening.

[Kagetsu]

I look at the cheap section of Walmart DVD's. If I find Stormhawks there it's a definite buy.

Anyone believe that Secret of the Omnitrix is coming this Tuesday (http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/news/Ben-10-Secret-of-the-Omnitrix/9641)?

this thread and the fact that its been a whole year since the Eds season 2 set came out is depressing :crying: maybe CN gave up on dvds and will only do blurays now I hope not because those are expensive :(

I wonder if sales will prompt Cartoon Network to release more Wal-Mart exclusives. Now, if only I could get to a store soon.

[Super Leviathan]

Has anyone tried writing letters, either snail or e-?

[Draft]

letters do not work (ratings + merchandise sales do though)

and ya, none of the CC's will be on Blu-Ray until the DVD becomes obsolete (Though stuff liek Jack, DC, and maybe even Megas could eventually)

[Racattack!Force]

I'm writing a letter right now. Snail mail.

[Mickialla]

I'm writing a letter right now. Snail mail.

Speaking of the letter: I was just wondering, would you happen to have Cartoon Network Studios (The Atlanta Headquarters)' address. Like a PO Box or something that you would send mail to and they would directly recieve it??

By the way, great webtoon! Really good stuff goin' on there, especially at 13, I'm 15 and, though I have some cartoon ideas floating around in my head, I'm too busy to ever get around to much. I'm thinking of making a Deviant Art page soon though, once again, soon as schools out...

[AlienX]

Well I just got ben 10 secret of the omnitrix dvd today its a pretty barebones release . There are no extras not even trailers the end credits show some stryboards and concept art though . This dvd very much like a free 1 episode dvd youd get at conventions because of how the menu was designed . No widescreen and no alternate versions but considering its price and how much money I had Im glad I got this great movie . This walmart exculsive is probably limited they probably released this for walmart so fans would but it another release probably special edition or at least like the austrailan version of the dvd is set to be released after season 4 is released this is probably a way for walmart to cash in . Also the picture looks great recomended solely on the movie and art packaging . This is pretty much like most animted movie dvds based on series except it doesnt have trailers games nothing .

It's $10, correct?

Just a forewarning, I didn't see a copy at my store (I'm gonna take a guess they hadn't run out). They did suspiciously have 2 spots for Race Against Time though, and I do live in a pretty unpopulated area, but just a forewarning.. (You can ahve it shipped to your store for free online I think)

[bigddan11]

I checked all 4 stores in the Odessa/ Midland area, and none of them have it. You can't have it shipped to your local store when it's not available online to order either, though your local store should be able to special order it.

What I don;t get is why the run time for season 4 shows it has 13 episodes if Secret of the Omnitrix isn't supposed to be part of it. I seriously doubt they'd throw 3 episodes of Alien Force on there.

[AlienX]

The movie is 10 dollars quacktoon . Also bigddan11 the season 4 dvd will have the movie 4 versions of the movie including trivia edition . Tvshowsondvd didnt get this info but a trailer was just added to the wb dvd online store has it .
