I’ve added the image to the Misc album of the Cougars, Inc. section of the Gallery. Thanks to Asher for posting the image. Update: I’ve upgraded the image to the full-sized version.
According to the Universal Channel representative they have all 7 seasons of Cold Case and will be showing seasons 1-3 this year and 4-6 next. That seemed to suggest that S7 would be airing in 2013. Not so. Universal will be broadcasting season 7 this year. The Universal Channel (the UK Hallmark channel rebranded) is available to Sky satellite and Virgin Media cable subscribers. Thank you to the Universal Channel for their help.
The Blu-ray is now listed as Loverboys – Mother’s Little Helpers as it was when news first broke back in January of the early release on discs in Europe. The DVD page on the other hand has an extra surprise for us as we get the even more different title of Loverboys – Desperate Wives. I’m thinking that one of those will change before long so they are both the same. The Loverboys part of the title does seem fixed as the box art shown for both formats has changed to include that wording. The different aspect ratio of the covers means the layout is slightly different for each case. Check out the Gallery for hi-resolution copies of both images. I’ve also included a much larger sized box art image. I assume that the “FSK ab 16 freigegeben” logo in the lower left corner is an age rating. 16 does seem more appropriate than the “12” currently in the text on the Amazon pages.
After the jump you’ll find a copy of the Lionsgate document. I’ve added HQ images of the DVD (see right) and Blu-ray box art to the Gallery. As you can see the shorter/wider format of the Blu-ray packaging means the cropping of the image is slightly different. Confirming what has been suspected for a while I was recently told by a representative of Grindstone Entertainment (the distributing partner of Lionsgate for the film) that there will be no theatrical release for Cougars, Inc. To remove any confusion that I might have been talking about the UK I did re-check that this related to the US as well. It did. A straight to DVD release does not preclude the possibility of screenings, possibly as part of the publicity campaign, but even a limited theatrical distribution is now very unlikely.
Nightly from today (7th March 2011), at 8pm, the Universal Channel here in the UK starts showing Cold Case from season 1. How many seasons they will show is not clear. Season 7 has yet to be aired by Sky, and may never be. I’d never even heard of the Universal Channel until now. Apparently it used to be the Hallmark Channel and changed its name towards the end of last year. I don’t have access to the channel so it is not a change I was going to notice. For those in the UK that have satellite or cable TV it is available on Sky channel 113 (the same in HD as well) and Virgin Media on 162. The channel’s website has a page devoted to Cold Case. They also have a Twitter account. |
