'Scrubs' Season 5 DVD Coming Soon; SOAPnet Acquires 'O.C.' and 'One Tree Hill' Starting in April

We got our Golden Girls final season DVD for review and inside that they had a preview saying that Scrubs Season 5 will be on DVD soon. A date was not given, but I think a May release date is likely. The set also had a preview for the final two seasons of Dinosaurs coming soon to DVD. No date was given, but from previous news, we know that set is coming May 1. Buena Vista told us that they might release some new sets soon...maybe Empty Nest, 8 Simple Rules, Blossom? Hopefully we'll know soon!

SOAPnet has made a deal with Warner Bros. Domestic Cable Distribution to acquire the rights to all four seasons of The O.C. and all four seasons of One Tree Hill, both hit drama series from Warner Bros. Television.
The O.C. and One Tree Hill will air Monday-Friday, beginning April 9. The O.C. will air at 6PM and One Tree Hill will air before that at 5PM. SOAPnet's number one acquired soap with women 18-34, Beverly Hills 90210, will lead into both new series at 3PM and 4PM.
