Napoleon Dynamite animated series coming to DVD later this year
Ahhh yes, the Napoleon Dynamite animated series. The show that FOX thought had a chance to knock out Bob’s Burgers in the ratings is set to come out later this year on DVD according to TVshowsonDVD.com. The hysterical part is that the release is set to retail at $30 when it comes out on November 4th which includes 134 minutes of content. For those counting at home, that accounts to ALL six episodes of Napoleon Dynamite or roughly $5 per episode which is the biggest ripoff I’ve ever heard.
The description of the DVD reads as follows:
THE ENTIRE CAST RETURNS FOR THIS HILARIOUS ANIMATED SERIES INCLUDING: Jon Heder (Blades of Glory, The Benchwarmers), Efran Ramirez (Crank, HBO’s “Eastbound & Down”), Jon Gries (Men in Black, Taken, Taken 2 & 3), and Diedrich Bader (Office Space, Balls of Fury, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back). FIRST TIME EVER ON DVD! Based on the runaway hit film, “Napoleon Dynamite” is an animated series just as quirky as the film that inspired it, and featuring the voices of the film’s original cast: Jon Heder, Efren Ramirez, Jon Gries, Diedrich Bader, Aaron Ruell, Tina Majorino, and Sandy Martin.
Originally broadcast as six half-hour episodes, the series follows the continuing misadventures of an awkward Idaho teen (Heder) and the social misfits who surround him in the small town of Preston, Idaho. Lord of dance, master of martial arts, and expert on the mythical beast known as the “liger,” Napoleon attempts to share the wisdom he has attained with his school pal Pedro (Ramirez), computer-nerd brother Kip (Ruell), Uncle Rico (Gries), and the painfully shy Deb (Majorino) – usually with hilarious results. Cult TV at its most off-beat, “Napoleon Dynamite” is highlighted by special appearances by Amy Poehler, Sam Rockwell, Jennifer Coolidge, Tom Kenny, Phil LaMarr and others!
