The Best Years: The Complete First Season, now on DVD



New friends, new beginnings and new loves all come together in one of the most compelling teen dramas on TV. The Best Years, the hit teen series from The N and CanWest, captures the highs and lows of campus life through the eyes of Samantha Best (Charity Shea, Alpha Dog), an orphan beginning her collegiate career at one of the country’s most prestigious universities. As fans gear up for the show’s eagerly-awaited season two premiere (premiering Spring 2009), E1 Entertainment proudly presents the DVD debut of The Best Years: The Complete First Season in a fully-loaded 4-disc set, containing all 13 season one episodes plus over 70 minutes of exclusive extras. Packed with behind-the-scenes footage, cast interviews and more, this must-own collection arrives in stores Tuesday, March 10 for the suggested retail price of $49.98 srp.
The Best Years follows Samantha Best as she starts her freshman year at the prestigious Charles University in Boston. Samantha has been shuffled through the foster care system her entire life and is finally looking forward to a future of new opportunities and friendships. She’ll have to contend with the ins and outs of college and mingle with a new world of “frenemies” as she struggles to find her own identity. Along the way she will meet new roommate Kathryn Klarner, (Jennifer Miller, Lucky Number Slevin), a rich socialite from one of the most prominent families in the mid-west; Dawn Vargas (Athena Karkanis, Saw IV), a child actor who has traded in Hollywood for college; and Devon Sylver (Brandon Jay McLaren, She's the Man), a fellow scholarship recipient and star basketball player who has caught her eye. With her new dysfunctional family and a part-time job at Boston’s hot spot, Colony, Samantha must face the excitement and pressures of college life. It’s going to be a year to remember.
Featuring a “dream cast” of many up-and-coming stars, The Best Years also includes Niall Matter (Watchmen), Lauren Collins (Degrassi: The Next Generation) and Alan Van Sprang (Saw III) in its talented ensemble.
The award-winning production team, led by Creator and Executive Producer Aaron Martin (who served as the head writer and show runner on The N’s acclaimed teen drama Degrassi: The Next Generation), delivers rollercoaster storylines – from the accidental death of a student to concealed family secrets and sex tapes – that make The Best Years one of the most entertaining hours on television today.
The Best Years: The Complete First Season is presented in anamorphic 16x9 and includes over seventy minutes of exclusive bonus material. The featurette “The Best Years: Behind the Drama” provides viewers an insider’s look at the making of the show, while a package of interviews with creator Aaron Martin, Charity Shea, Brandon Jay McLaren and the rest of the cast reveal further behind-the-scenes details. Additional extras include b-roll footage, selections from the cast’s auditions/screen tests as well as outtakes and bloopers from season one’s wrap reel.
