Yeah, I doubt there is anymore special interviews/footage for the bonus disc for Jericho. The "Return to Jericho" recap sounds right.

That's the best price I've seen for it. I'm so getting it from Target. BTW, there's 5 audio commentaries and you actually listen to them on CBS.com.

Target fails. I went in to get Entourage with the bonus disc. The price card indicated that the bonus disc was present, but nothing on the DVD sets themselves did.

I looked at the other DVDs with Exclusives, Jericho and one other, and they both had a sticker on the DVD itself that said "Target Exclusive, Bonus Disc, etc." For Entourage there was no such thing, leading me to believe that, just like with the Knocked Up Booklet from last week, it's not there.

Target near me had Entourage with the bonus disc clearly packaged with the set and a Target exclusive sticker on the front.

Also had Jericho with the bonus "Q&A" DVD also visible inside the set and sticker on front.

Any word on the Fantastic Four exclusive? Is it just a booklet or does it in fact contain a second bonus disc (ie three discs)

^ Doubtful. I quickly added the runtimes, in my head, from the second disc from a review and it comes close if not over 120 minutes.

Wii this week, huh? Hmm, I wonder if it's even worth going to Target to try to pick one up, at this point.

When I got there, there were two copies. Neither had any sticker on them. I asked an employee who was pretty clueless and she said it was inside. I bought it, went outside and opened it. Nothing inside. Went back in and had an employee look in the back. He came out with 2 more copies this time with stickers and the bonus disc attached to the back. Also How I Met Your Mother Season Two's booklet is inside the dvds even though there is no sticker on the box.

Anyone in NYC area have any luck with the Jericho Target set? I hit several in Queens and LI including one at 8 AM as they opened and none of them had it - two stores claimed they never got it in.

Target exclusive disc and booklet.

My store in San Bernardino, CA only had one copy of each; "Jericho" and "How I Met Your Mother" at 9:00 AM, I checked with the clerk. Yup. One copy each. Long story short, I ended up going to Fontana to pick up HIMYM. And yeah, I looked. No sticker or disc on the back of any of the copies of "Entourage" I saw at both stores.

I went to Target for Entourage and How I Met Your Mother this evening and got neither "bonus" item. I wonder if they will offer the same thing they offered for Knocked Up with a phone number.

Just like with Brothers & Sisters at Target, some had stickers and some did not. If it didn't have a sticker, no bonus dvd. It was a mix in the display. You have to look at each one. They just bring out whatever, so quanity really varies. They all come in the same box. So its mixed.

For reference, 1408 is sitting at $22.99 for the 2-Disc Collector's Edition at Target. That's the same price as everywhere else, so if you've got to do some grocery shopping and such you're not missing on a deal if you snag it up.

Nope I went to two stores in Mt. Vernon and White Plains. While the sign was up at both stores advertising it, both had no stock. I assumed they both sold out.
I hate bonus disc exclusives.

is there ANY way to differentiate if the HIMYM has the booklet? sticker over the upc? i assume you can't actually see the booklet when you're looking at the slimcase side of the box? pretty much all the targets i went to were sold out of the show in general. i finally found a store that had copies left, asked the associate if it was the special edition, and she said yes. so i bought it, took it home and alas, no booklet inside any way of getting the booklet?

I was lucky Shyguy1083.

I could see the edge of the booklet in the slipcase, there's a slight gap between the slimcases.

ah, so it's not inside the slimcase? hmmm... maybe i should go to my local target and check again... another question: how many pages is the booklet? what exactly is inside? it it just a rehashing of the episode guide listed on the slimcases or are there pics/notes?

ETA: so i took a chance, went down the another local target, one that was listed as having ONE copy left in stock. i called beforehand, asked the associate again if it was the exclusive. they said they didn't know, but when i told them there was no sticker, they said it "felt" like there was more stuff in the box. i asked them to hold it, went down to the store, checked out the box myself and behind the first slimcase, i could see the corners of what looked like a book. so i had them exchange it for me. opened it up, and it was there! thanks for the tip, john! i wish they had placed the booklet inbetween the two slimcases. it would've made it a bit easier to spot.

but yea, the booklet is actually REALLY cool. it's a nice 16-pager with cast photos and cast comments/tidbits throughout. the "awesomeness" poster is even better! that makes the exclusive even more worthwhile. kind of a hassle to get it (they really should LABEL/STICKER the sets that contain the exclusive. but i'm glad to have gotten it all considering it seems pretty elusive. they both nicely under the tabs of the first slimcase also, which is an added plus. i'm glad they didn't package it like that though as it would've been even MORE difficult to determine the exclusive packs from the regular ones.
