Warner Bros. Home Entertainment has officially released Watchmen: An HBO Limited Series on Blu-ray and DVD. 

Along with all nine episodes of the critically acclaimed Damon Lindelof series, all in stunning 1080p, the Blu-ray set contains over 90 minutes of bonus content, including exclusive never-before-seen features that will take you further behind-the-scenes of the making of the series than ever before. 

While there has been some buzz about a potential second season, HBO along with the cast and crew have repeatedly hailed the show as a Limited Series, which means that despite the demand, there isn't likely to be any sort of follow-up. Unless, of course, Lindelof comes up with an amazing idea he wants to explore down the line.

Produced for HBO by White Rabbit in association with Warner Bros. Television, the series was created for television by Lindelof based on characters co-created for DC by Dave Gibbons. The series is executive produced by Lindelof, Tom Spezialy, Nicole Kassell, Stephen Williams and Joseph E. Iberti.
