Warner Bros. Home Entertainment has announced the Blu-ray release of The Originals: The Complete First Season. A spin-off of The Vampire Diaries, the CW series stars Joseph Morgan, Daniel Gillies, Claire Holt, Charles Michael Davis, Leah Pipes, Phoebe Tonkin and Daniella Pineda, and arrives on Blu-ray/DVD/UltraViolet combo pack on September 2nd.

Synopsis: Klaus Mikaelson (Morgan), the original vampire-werewolf hybrid, has returned to New Orleans, the city from which he and his siblings, Elijah (Gillies) and Rebekah (Holt), were exiled a century ago. Drawn back by a mysterious tip that a plot is brewing against him, Klaus is surprised that the city still feels like home despite the decades he's been away. Curious as to why Klaus would return to the one place he swore he would never set foot again, Elijah follows his brother and learns that the beautiful and rebellious werewolf Hayley (Tonkin) has also come to the French Quarter searching for clues to her family history. As Klaus vows to reclaim what was once his, he realizes that his unborn child could be the key to the Originals' return to power.

Even the human population of the Quarter is unwittingly drawn into this supernatural battleground. A recent arrival to New Orleans, Cami (Pipes) is a whip-smart psychology grad student who appears happy to pursue her studies by day and work nights as a bartender, unaware that many of her customers are vampires. Hiding the dark secret that has brought her to New Orleans, Cami soon finds herself fascinated by both Klaus and his protégé Marcel (Davis), and totally unaware of the danger they pose for her and everyone around her.

The Originals: The Complete First Season is presented in 1080p with DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 surround. Special features include:

• Pilot Commentary
• 2013 Comic-Con Panel
• 2014 Paley Fest Panel
• Origins Featurette

Tempted to wait and see if WB releases this later down the line in a non-combo pack like they've been doing recently with other shows.

I really, really wanted to like this show but I didn't.

They likely will. They have been doing it for every show that I know of that comes in a combo pack.

Since Warner distributes HBO shows and the latest season of True Blood is no longer a combo pack, I was hoping that was a sign for Warner's own shows. I have a lot of shows to watch, so I guess waiting isn't a huge deal.

Oh goody, we can watch good looking vampires in expensive clothing stand around and talk about how many thousands of years old they are in HD.

Last year I spent around $40 for Arrow season 1 and few months later around Christmas it was $20 hopefully that's the case here also.
