The Sliders Seasons 1-4 DVD Box set edition comes in a two-disc combo pack featuring a bonus DVD edition and a digital copy, and it features three more featurettes (in HD), including the excellent half-hour documentary “Charles Portis—The Greatest Writer You’ve Never Heard Of…”

This Miami Medical Season 1 DVD Box set reaches beyond the cast and crew to examine the work and influence of the novelist through interviews with publishers, editors, authors and even a songwriter (Dwight Yoakum). The film’s property master guides us through the guns used by each character in the brief “Colts, Winchesters & Remingtons: The Guns of a Post-Civil War Western,” which packs plenty of information (and armaments history) into just over four minutes. Even shorter is “The Cinematography of True Grit,” which can’t begin to do justice to the work of the great Roger Deakins in its brief running time of under three minutes. But then the Blu-ray image itself is testament to his work.
