Top Chef: D.C. - The Complete Season
This season of Top Chef could have really gone to another level if one of the cheftestants had turned out to be a brainwashed assassin targeting our nation's government buildings -- a Manchurian Cheftestant, if you will. Seriously, these guys were meeting with the CIA, NASA, Congress -- hell, they could have taken out the Washington Nationals if they'd successfully weaponized the hot dog. Perhaps the set's bonus Chef House Confessions footage will reveal sinister food-based plans for bringing our delicious democracy to its knees.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Season 8 Motion Comic
For those of you who passed up on reading the Whedon-shepherded, story-continuing comic books and held out for actual episodes, this is as close as you're going to get: sparingly animated comic book panels on DVD. Collecting first 19 issues in the series, plus a bonus gallery of all of the multiple variant covers and promotional art, plus a trivia challenge, it's arguably better than reading actual comic books. Feel free to bag and board it.

The Real Housewives of New Jersey: Season 2
This five-disc set includes both reunion shows, some never-before-seen footage and "RHONJ Cribs," so we can get tours of their massive residences. Hopefully, each subsequent DVD release will have a RHONJ take on a different classic MTV show: RHONJ Punk'd, RHONJ Remote Control, etc.

The Real Housewives of Orange County: Season 3
Season 6 premieres in February, so where are Seasons 4 and 5 on DVD? What are fans of Lynne Curtin to do? Those are her only two seasons!

Big Love: The Complete Fourth Season
Four seasons down, one to go.
