"Point Pleasant" on DVD 10/25

Yet another tv show on FOX that never was allowed to flourish. Point Pleasant lasted only 8 episodes before getting the hook. The teenage daughter of the devil washes ashore in a sleepy New England town, but it's her choice to use her powers for good or follow in her father's footsteps. What's not to like about that storyline?? This show rocked, go grab the DVD.

The upcoming DVD release of the critically reviled and little-seen Fox series Point Pleasant will include five never-before-seen episodes, Fox Home Entertainment announced. Although 13 episodes were produced, only eight were aired before the show was pulled from the network due to low ratings.

The series, from Buffy the Vampire Slayer executive producer Marti Noxon, centers around a mysterious girl (Elisabeth Harnois) who appears in the quaint coastal town of Point Pleasant after nearly drowning. As she searches for her lost mother and learns of her father's demonic nature, she becomes a lightning rod for the forces of good and evil in the town. Grant Show and Dina Meyers also star. The three-disc DVD set will be released on Oct. 25.
