In other news, Season 2 of The Next Generation on BluRay has been announced!
CBS DVD and Paramount Home Entertainment have today announced that Star Trek: The Next Generation - Season 2 is coming to high-def Blu-ray Disc format on December 4th. This 5-disc set stars Patrick Stewart, Jonathan Frakes, LeVar Burton, Brent Spiner, Michael Dorn, Marina Sirtis, Wil Wheaton, and introduces to the cast both Whoopi Goldberg as "Guinan" and Diana Muldaur as "Dr. Pulaski." Also, "Chief O'Brien" (Colm Meaney) becomes a regularly recurring character during this season. This is also the season where The Borg are first introduced to the Trek universe.
Guest stars include Billy Campbell, Joe Piscopo, Teri Hatcher, William Morgan Sheppard, Suzie Plakson, Chris Latta, Brian Thompson, Mädchen Amick, Carolyn Seymour, Noble Willingham, John Tesh, Nikki Cox, John de Lancie, Robert Costanzo, Majel Barrett, Carel Struycken, Mick Fleetwood, Lance LeGault, Anne Ramsay, and Armin Shimerman. This season, shortened due to a strike in Hollywood, only came to 22 episodes (the final one consisting mostly of clips from earlier episodes). Still, it contained a number of fan-favorite episodes such as "Elementary, Dear Data," "The Measure of a Man" and "The Emissary." As there was with the first season set, the studio plans to hold a theatrical screening event in December promoting the Star Trek: The Next Generation - Season 2 Blu-ray Disc release (details are forthcoming).
Cost is $129.99 SRP. Here's a list of included bonus material (which consists of both extras from previous DVD release of this title, plus new items produced for this Blu-ray version), followed by the packaging and a pre-order link:
Various sources have reported that the commentary tracks will be for episodes "Measure of a Man" and "Q Who". Although I have to ask. Who the heck is Don Berman?? And if anyone has been following Robert Meyer Burnett on Twitter, it sounds like the list of bonus features will include more than what is listed here, such as discussions about the canceled Star Trek Phase 2 series (which will include test footage) and how some episodes of Season two were adapted from the scripts to that series.
