...Greetings once more! We're back again this Friday morning, with another new Roundup post for you this week. We've got 13 announcements of TV-on-DVD/BD titles to share, plus box cover art for 12 of these.
PLEASE remember, as always, that if we haven't already posted news about a DVD title you are waiting for, then we simply DO NOT have any info about it yet; sorry.
For those of you who've missed the monthly calendar of titles that TV Shows On DVD used to have at our old website: MetaCritic has a similar monthly list, with both TV & Movie releases (full disclosure: TV Shows On DVD and MetaCritic are both owned by CBS Interactive). Here's a link to MetaCritic's home page for their DVD release calendars:

-----Returning to the world of Tudor royal court intrigue, "The Spanish Princess" is a vivid and captivating story told uniquely from the point of view of the women, which also sheds light on a previously untold corner of history: the lives of people of color living and working in 16th-century London. Catherine of Aragon is the strong-willed young Princess of Spain, who has been promised the English throne since she was a child. She arrives in a gray, rain-lashed England with her glorious and diverse court, including her ladies-in-waiting Lina - a Spanish noble of African-Iberian descent - and the sweet and free-spirited Rosa. When her husband, Prince Arthur, dies suddenly, the throne seems lost to Catherine until she devises an audacious plan and sets her sights on the new heir, the charismatic and headstrong Prince Harry, who will one day rule as King Henry VIII.

The thrills continue when Stone is joined by Keller's capable replacement, youthful Inspector Dan Robbins (Richard Hatch). In the 120 episodes contained in this 32 disc set collecting the complete series, come for the view, and stay for the chase. Guest stars include Dean Stockwell, Pernell Roberts, Tom Selleck, Leslie Nielsen, James Woods, Nick Nolte, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Martin Sheen, Dabney Coleman, Desi Arnaz, Jr., John Ritter, Robert Wagner, Dick Van Patten, Mark Hamill, Tom Bosley, Bill Bixby, and many more!
