TV on DVD: Gotham, Big Bang Theory, and Elementary
Some great TV shows have made their way onto DVD recently including:
Gotham: The Complete First Season - an attempt to recapture the magic of Smallville in a darker environment, this show is a blend of crime-case procedure and mobster politics that also fills in the gaps between the orphaning of Bruce Wayne to where Batman begins; Big Bang Theory: Season 8 - The uber-popular series is entertaining in its eighth season, it's a solid, breezy sitcom with an appealing cast; and Elementary: Season 3 - an entertaining, well-made, and impressive series with a modern spin on the Sherlock Holmes character.

This Week's Notable Releases: Furious 7, Cinderella (2015), and Moby Dick
There are some new titles coming out that might make it worth a trip to the video store this week. Check out these recent releases:
Furious 7 [review] - this seventh film in the Fast and the Furious series is the largest in scale - an epic love letter to the fans that have supported the cast since the original landed in theaters in 2001; Cinderella (2015) [review] - entertaining and visually ambitious, Disney's newest adaptation of Cinderella is an easy choice for family movie night; and Moby Dick (1956) [review] - John Huston's mostly brilliant, frequently overlooked adaptation of the classic novel gets a new domestic DVD release from Kino/Lorber, and the results are an admirable step forward.
Other reviews of note include: Immoral Tales [review], Disneynature: Monkey Kingdom [review], and House of the Long Shadows [review].
