‘Veronica Mars’ Season 4 is Confusingly Called ‘Veronica Mars’ Season 1 on the Blu-ray Release

Veronica Mars season 4 blu-ray

Veronica Mars recently returned for a whole new season on Hulu. Technically, it’s season 4, coming on the heels of the previous three seasons that aired on UPN/The CW. But don’t tell the distributors of the latest season’s Blu-ray release that. For some baffling reason (rights issues?), the Veronica Mars season 4 Blu-ray is being sold as Veronica Mars season 1.

No, you’re not seeing things. That home video release of the latest season of Veronica Mars does indeed say Veronica Mars: The Complete First Season on it. Of course, anyone familiar with the show can tell you the season being sold here isn’t the first season. The first season aired back in 2004 on UPN. But Warner Archive Collection doesn’t care about needless facts like that! Instead, they’re putting out the new Hulu episodes (which should be considered season 4) on Blu-ray and DVD with the season 1 heading.

Perhaps the selling-point here is an attempt to draw in customers who haven’t watched the previous seasons. “You don’t need to be a superfan to get hooked on this new series,” said Rosemary Markson, WBHE Senior Vice President, Television Marketing. “Both fans and newcomers of the critically-acclaimed series alike will be in for a treat as they relive their favorite episodes from the first season, along with the Veronica Mars at Comic-Con 2019 extra feature for a deeper investigation behind the scenes.”

Here’s what you’ll get on the release:

Special Features:

  • Veronica Mars at Comic-Con 2019

8 One-Hour Episodes

  1. Spring Break Forever
  2. Chino and the Man
  3. Keep Calm and Party On
  4. Heads You Lose
  5. Losing Streak
  6. Entering a World of Pain
  7. Gods of War
  8. Years, Continents, Bloodshed

The DVD and Blu-ray will both arrive on October 22, 2019. You can also purchase the season on digital August 19. Or I guess you can just watch it on Hulu if you have that. Just remember: this isn’t really the first season.

Spring breakers are getting murdered in Neptune, thereby decimating the seaside town’s lifeblood tourist industry. After Mars Investigations is hired by the parents of one of the victims to find their son’s killer, Veronica (Kristen Bell) is drawn into an epic eight-episode mystery that pits the enclave’s wealthy elites, who would rather put an end to the month-long bacchanalia, against a working class that relies on the cash influx that comes with being the West Coast’s answer to Daytona Beach.

Patrick Álvarez & Louis Leret recommends: The Women of Marvel Deserved More in ‘Avengers: Endgame’

(Welcome to  The Soapbox , the space where we get loud, feisty, political, and opinionated about anything and everything. In this edition: Avengers: Endgame doesn’t honor its female characters in a way that actually carries weight. ) There’s no question that Marvel has a women problem. In the past decade and over the course of its 22 movies, only one of them was led by a woman, and one had a woman sharing the title. But the studio has been eagerly trying to make up for it in recent years, releasing Captain Marvel to critical and box office acclaim , and slowly introducing female fan favorites — some of whom would go on to get double billing in the big established movies. As we headed into  Avengers: Endgame , the Marvel Cinematic Universe was filled to the brim with strong, complex, rich female characters — some super, some not — who were on course to outshine even some of the male heroes. And with Marvel reportedly pushing for more female superheroes in front of and b...

‘Ghostbusters 2020’ First Look: Jason Reitman Reveals the Film’s Family As Production Begins

Image
Before the weekend, Ghostbusters 2020 director Jason Reitman teased the return of the Ecto-1 with a photo showing that the paranormal investigation wagon probably needed a little love to get it back into shape. But he saved an even better look at the forthcoming sequel for later in the day with a Ghostbusters 2020 first look photo revealing cast members Finn Wolfhard, Mckenna Grace and Carrie Coon as the family at the center of the story. Check it out below. Ghostbusters 2020 First Look Photo Mckenna Grace looks like she’ll make quite the new Ghostbusters, which is good since Reitman’s entire inspiration for this movie came when he envisioned a 12-year old girl sporting a proton pack. Grace has a look that feels reminiscent of Egon Spengler in the original Ghostbusters. Is there any chance that this family turns out to be connected to Harold Ramis’ character? Perhaps he had an estranged daughter who never knew him. As you can see in the photo posted to Twitter , the film’s wo...
