Alright physical media fans, who is ready for the ultimate walk-n-talk? Aaron Sorkin's Emmy-winning drama, The West Wing is coming to Blu-ray on October 1st. Celebrating its 25th Anniversary, all 156 episodes (that's around 6617 minutes) will arrive on disc.
Remember that time when you could sit back, take a breath, and actually feel good about your elected officials? No I don't mean the Clinton years or the innocuous early days of the Bush administration. I mean when you could turn on NBC and catch the latest episode of Aaron Sorkin's The West Wing. Well, now you can enjoy all seven seasons of the Bartlit Administration and the numerous classic Walk-n-Talks in 1080p! All 156 episodes of the show will be coming to 28 Blu-ray discs this October. We don't have full specs on aspect ratios and audio format, but we do expect them to mirror the show's current streaming presentation. We also don't have a full list of extra features, but from the details expect most of the DVD content to carry over. I'm personally not thrilled with the choice of cases, individual seasons in standard Blu-ray cases would be much nicer, regardless it'll be great to have the full set in 1080p on disc.
This set is up for pre-order now - here's the full press release:
