Paramount Releases Cover Art Of First 'NY' DVD Set

This week, Paramount unveiled the cover art of CSI: New York's first DVD set, which will be available for purchase this fall.

The cover art features Mac Taylor and Stella Bonasera with the New York skyline serving as background. The blue hue, which has become the show's signature, is predominantly appreciated through the image and fonts.

New York's first season will be compressed into six disks and will include the crossover episode "MIA/NYC - NonStop." CSI box sets normally include seven disks to accommodate a few extras, Season one was originally scheduled to be released in September, but was recently pushed back to October 25th.

Paramount has also released the second part of the CSI season four DVD on Region 2 encoding. The three disks include the episodes 13, "Suckers," through the season finale, "Bloodlines." The set also features a special behind-the-scenes look at CSI: New York, as well as a preview of the show's first episode, "Blink."

The DVD set came out to mixed reviews. Though Monsters and Critics' Andy McKeague didn't have much to say about the box set itself, the critic wasn't very impressed with the series. However, the website Hertz 24 gave the DVD 4 stars, while Female First provided an episode-by-episode summary and praised the concept of the show. "No other drama show in recent history has had such a major influence on popular culture."
