Why So Blu?

The Big Bang Theory: The Complete Ninth Season Gets a Blu-ray Date!

My day has gone from horrible to good with the following news of one of my favorite sitcom’s ninth season coming home to the Blu-ray format early this fall.  Leonard, Sheldon, Penny, Howard, Raj, Amy and Bernadette return for television’s perpetual laughter experiment – The Big Bang Theory. Recently ranked as the #1 series with total viewers among Adults 25-54, Men 18-49, and Men 25-54 on broadcast TV and dubbed a “sweetly romantic comedy” that is a “hopeless sitcom addiction” by the Daily Mail, The Big Bang Theory continues to enthrall viewers and critics all over the world, averaging 21 million viewers per episode!  Now fans can enjoy one of the funniest seasons yet when Warner Bros. Home Entertainment releases The Big Bang Theory: The Complete Ninth Season on Blu-Ray  (including Digital HD) and DVD on September 13^th, 2016.  The Big Bang Theory: The Complete Ninth Season includes all 24 episodes plus all-new extras including five featurettes, the 2015 Comic Con Panel and a hilarious gag reel!

The Big Bang Theory: The Complete Ninth Season—which returns to CBS this fall with its tenth season—continues the saga of Leonard and Sheldon, two genius roommates who are brilliant in the lab, but socially challenged outside of it.  In Season Nine, Sheldon embarks on some soul-searching adventures, no doubt entailing substantial revisions to his Relationship Agreement with neurobiologist Amy. Meanwhile, Leonard and Penny tie the knot in Las Vegas – but how this will affect the Roommate Agreement with Sheldon is anyone’s guess. Meanwhile, Howard and his wife, Bernadette, are living alone in his mother’s house (but not for long!), and Raj is not only able to talk with women – but finds the challenges of getting exclusive with only one, Emily (Laura Spencer). With unexpected plot twists, celebrity guest appearances, and moments of social awkwardness that often stimulate an involuntary laugh reflex, The Big Bang Theory: The Complete Ninth Season successfully melds the worlds of sitcom and science into a series that has captured the hearts of fans all over the country, and the world.
