Butler did it? That's what a judge is expected to ask former Witchblade star Yancy Butler at a court hearing soon, following three violent incidents that occurred this month. In separate incidents, Butler is accused of assaulting her uncle and her father (ex-Lovin' Spoonful drummer Joe Butler, who appeared in an episode of Witchblade's second season with her), and later she allegedly head-butted a female police officer while in custody. Police records indicate that Butler was drunk during the incident involving her father. (Production on Witchblade's second season was stalled even before the first episode aired when Butler abruptly checked herself into alcohol rehab.) Sources: Associated Press, Reuters


It waits at the edge of the final frontier. But most of all, it waits for your DVD player. The first season of the criminally underappreciated Star Trek spinoff Deep Space Nine arrives in a 6-DVD box set at the end of February. Featuring interviews with the cast, writers and crew behind DS9, as well as a focus on the character and development of Major Kira, the first season of DS9 gives those of you who thought Voyager was more exciting a chance to atone, and gives those of us who loved DS9 from the start a good excuse to hold viewing parties. (Not that we're being opinionated here, mind you.) The complete first season of DS9 on DVD is now available for pre-order from theLogBook.com.

5 tons of spinning DVDs, all alone in the night. Warner Bros. home video was stunned at the response to the first season DVD box set of Babylon 5, so expect even more goodies from the season two box set, arriving in late April. B5 guru J. Michael Straczynski offers his commentary on two episodes (the season finale The Coming Of Shadows and Hugo-winning The Fall Of Night) while Bruce Boxleitner, Jerry Doyle and Claudia Christian do a tag-team commentary on the fan favorite The Long, Twilight Struggle. Another new documentary covers the making of the second year, featuring all-new interviews with Stephen Furst, Mira Furlan, Andrea Thompson and many others. Babylon 5: The Complete Second Season is now available for pre-order from theLogBook.com.

Did I get drunk, or did I get drunk? You don't need the Holly Hop Drive to climb back aboard the Dwarf, baby. Season 2 of Red Dwarf is coming soon on DVD, with an unprecedented simultaneous release in the US and the UK. Featuring all six episodes of the show's second season (which, technically, aired during the same calendar year as its first season), and a running commentary on every episode by Craig Charles, Norman Lovett, Danny John-Jules and Chris Barrie, you can also look for more hidden features, the complete music soundtrack, and more goodies. Red Dwarf: The Complete Second Season is now available for pre-order from theLogBook.com.

Blake's 6...months into the year now. A little something from the AAAARRRRRGGGHHH! department for Blake's 7 fans out there: Fabulous Films has pushed the 5-disc DVD box set of the show's first season back to June 2003. Now, supposedly every delay means that more goodies have been added to the set, and we've learned that almost the entire cast has recorded commentaries (with the very notable exception of Paul Darrow) for several of the 13 episodes of the first season, and bloopers and other items from such BBC shows as Blue Peter have been confirmed as bonuses. Now, if only we can get the thing released! The complete first season of Blake's 7 is still available for pre-order from theLogBook.com, as presumably it will be for quite some time...
