This is a weird time of year- betwixt and between seasons. A few summer shows- like Breaking Bad and Weeds- are still airing, but they’re winding down. The True Blood and Damages season finales have already aired, and other shows, such as Leverage and Pretty Little Liars are on hiatus for a month or two.
Other things are coming back, and some new shows have already started. The first episode of Ringer, Sarah Michelle Gellar’s much-hyped new show, already happened, and next week there’ll be new How I Met Your Mother, Glee, Community, Supernatural and much, much more.
But what are you supposed to do up until that deluge?

What other DVD extras would you recommend we pore over to get us through the week?
