Tru Calling's trump cards are its intriguing paranormal premise and the lead performance by the underrated Eliza Dushku (Buffy the Vampire Slayer), both of which have earned it a small but loyal audience; both of these virtues are preserved in this six-disc set that includes not only the entire 2003 debut season but a surprising amount of supplemental features. Dushku plays Tru Davies, a young morgue attendant who discovers, much to her dismay, that she can hear the voices of the dead, as well as reverse their fates; with the help of her brother (Shawn Reaves) and boss (Zack Galifianakis), Tru relives the last day of these people's lives in order to prevent their untimely deaths.

Episodic highlights include "Valentine," which pits Tru against a serial killer; "Closure," in which a young war hero attempts to reunite with his girlfriend after his death; "Murder in the Morgue," which revolves around the killing of a bride on her wedding day; and "Daddy's Girl," which reveals some disturbing news regarding Tru's past and introduces Jason Priestley as the sinister-seeming Jack Harper, a man with powers similar to hers, but with very different intentions regarding the recently deceased. The six-disc set includes all 20 episodes of the first season (including the two-part finale), several featuring commentary by Dushku, Reaves, and the producers; deleted scenes, audition reels for several cast members, and a music video for Full Blown Rose's theme song, "Can Somebody Help Me," round out the extras. --Paul Gaita

Customer Reviews

I miss this show
It's interesting to watch the first season again. They really were working out a lot of the kinks, and they *did* seem to be on the right track for Season 2. It's too bad the plug was pulled.

Overall, this package was very satisfying. The menus are easy to navigate. The character shots are nice. And the special features, while not mind-blowing, were nice to have. (I don't tend to find special features mind-blowing anyway, so from me, "nice to have" is a high compliment for special features.)

This show was really going somewhere, and while I'm sad that it never made it, I'm glad I own what they did make to watch anytime.

And watched every second of it.. as quickly as I posibly can, with Rene`. Anyone know if the guy who played the villian was her brother? ( my mother seems to think he was her brother )
