The Middleman - The Doomsday Armageddon Apocalypse [Custom Bonus DVD] (Released)

This is sort of a cross-post, but only because I scrapped the original project (which was to be a fan edit using the graphic novel) and transitioned to a preservation.

The original thread is here, which the admins can feel free to lock or delete.

This is a custom 5th disc to go with The Middleman Complete Series DVD set.

The final episode of the series was never filmed, but later turned into a graphic novel.  In 2009 at Comic-Con most of the cast was reassembled and they performed a complete table read of the episode.

It ties up all of the plot threads left over from season 1, and is riddled with great call-back gags.

This DVD contains that table read with subtitles (that were necessary because of audio quality and the rapid line delivery).

The menus are custom and closely match the rest of the discs in the set.

It also includes:
The Middleman Exclusive Interviews by ComicsOnline (following the table read).
“Dinner” faux Public Service Announcement (missing from disc 4)
TV Premiere Trailer
Wendy Watson Trailer

All video is culled from the net so expect YouTube-ish quality or less.
The table read is cut together from 2 sources to fix some video issues.

DVD_ROM extras include a backup .SRT of the English subtitles and .PDF files of The DDA Graphic Novel Script and The Pilot Episode Sanction Script.

I’ll post screenshots, but I get the impression there aren’t a lot of MM fans here… so this is more of an FYI.

Sounds great, Javier Grillo-Marxuach does some great stuff, if you haven't seen "The Chronicle" an older show he did, similar fun.  Missed MM when it was on tv, another on the 'canceled too soon' list.

I DO remember The Chronicle on Sci-Fi, good show.  I was very sad to see that one cancelled too.

I'm guessing you did catch up with MM eventually from your post.  I 'offered' the custom DVD on BitHQ, but in a couple months only 1 person has shown interest, so I haven't posted it.
