The Unit Giftset DVD out September 29th
TV News | Jul 21st, 2009
The Unit has been one of my favorite shows on TV the last 4 years. The latest season was one of the best seasons, and each episode offered up something different. It’s like watching a great military movie each week. Sadly, CBS canceled the show despite it’s steady ratings throughout the years. I think it’s a dumb move if you ask me. The final, and 4th season DVD & Blu-Ray has been announced for September 29th. Plus, if you’re a super fan like myself and enjoy each episode of the military show, you’ll want to get the Gift set DVD that’s coming out! 19 discs for the cheap price of 200 bucks. yikes! haha.
Here’s the press release:
CENTURY CITY, Calif. – Covert Warriors. Unsung Heroes.

Starring Golden Globe®-nominee* Dennis Haysbert (“24”), Scott Foley (“Felicity”) and Robert Patrick (“The X-Files”), “The Unit” lifts the veil on a dangerous, top secret world of a covert Special Forces team, whose identities must remain highly classified as they span the globe, risking their lives in the name of patriotic duty. In the series’ fourth and final season, The Unit finds itself on a quest to determine who ordered the assassination of the President-Elect, battling terrorists and thwarting kidnapping attempts along the way. As danger looms in every corner, The Unit must remain focused on its mission if it is to succeed. From Shawn Ryan, the creative mind behind “The Shield,” and Pulitzer Prize-winning writer/director David Mamet (Redbelt), “The Unit” Complete Giftset and Season Four feature all-new bonus material including deleted scenes, behind-the-scenes featurettes and more. “The Unit” Complete Giftset will be available on DVD for the suggested retail price of $199.98 U.S / $349.98 Canada. “The Unit” Season Four will be available on Blu-ray Disc for the suggested retail price of $69.99 U.S / $89.99 Canada and on DVD for the suggested retail price of $59.98 U.S / $89.98 Canada.

Series Synopsis:
Known only as “The Unit,” this ultra-secret contingent of Special Forces soldiers operate outside the usual military chain of command. Their very existence is a closely held secret protected by the soldiers themselves. Their wives, who are also in on the secret, strictly adhere to a fictitious cover story that is provided for them. “The Unit” chronicles a team of unknown heroes who, without ever receiving credit, risk their lives while protecting others.Complete Giftset Specs:
