“The League” Season 3 DVD is an OK release and with only 13 episodes is relatively cheap, though I’d recommend the Blu-ray (which we were not supplied, unfortunately). The features aren’t anything amazing, though I guess if you’re a fan of the show, the extended episodes might be an interesting bonus.

THE SHOW
Unsportsmanlike conduct takes on a whole new meaning in the fantasy football comedy, “The League”. With special guest stars Seth Rogen, Jeff Goldblum, Sarah Silverman and Eliza Dushku, Season Three kicks off as Kevin and Jenny have a run-in with a local drug dealer, and Pete regrets learning a new sexual position. Ruxin hires a hot new au pair, but does Taco have his eyes on her end zone? It’s time to trade up to never-before-seen extended episodes. The race to the playoffs is on… but who wins the Shiva, and who gets the dreaded Sacko?
SPECIAL FEATURES – 2.0/5
The 2-disc set comes with 10 Extended Episodes, some Deleted Scenes, Alt Nation and Taco Tones featurettes and a Gag Reel.
VIDEO – 3.75/5
“The League” Season 3 is presented with fine anamorphic widescreen transfer which more or less matches what’s on television, just with the normal artifacting that accompanies standard def releases.
AUDIO – 3.5/5
The Dolby Digital 5.1 track is serviceable especially for a comedy but nothing more. Dialogue is clear, which is all that matters as the other channels don’t get a whole lot of use.
OVERALL – 3.0/5
Overall, “The League” Season 3 DVD is an OK release and with only 13 episodes is relatively cheap, though I’d recommend the Blu-ray (which we were not supplied, unfortunately). The features aren’t anything amazing, though I guess if you’re a fan of the show, the extended episodes might be an interesting bonus.
