The physical media business is slowly but surely becoming an afterthought. I was a tiny bit disheartened, hearing that Best Buy would be doing away with BluRays and DVDs in stores. Was always fun to go and see what titles they had on sale. Warner Bros itself started hitting the brakes a while back… honestly, it if wasn’t a Rick and Morty season or something they pumped a huge amount of money into, you wouldn’t have expected it on DVD nor BluRay.
Of all the recent shows, I never would have expected Smiling Friends. Sure, it was a zany show filled with crazy characters (Hello.) from the minds of Zach Hadel and Michael Cusack. While we’re still waiting to hear if and when a Season Two is coming, it appears WB Home Video is giving fans something to whet their appetite.
At any rate, gone are the days of TVShowsOnDVD.com (we’ve been gone so long, it appears they sold out to Metacritic at some point)… it looks like we’ll be keeping our eyes on YES to see what else could materialize sooner than later.
