ReBoot's distribution is finally getting the reboot it so rightfully deserves.
Shout! Factory has announced that they will hold the exclusive distribution rights to the first CGI-animated television series in history, ReBoot, across both DVD and digital platforms throughout 2011, though no release date has been set in concrete just yet. The series was widely popular after its 1994 release, and four season run during the span that it aired on ABC in America and YTV in Canada.
"ReBoot fans have been urging us to release the series on DVD," said Terry Kalagian, VP of Business Development for Rainmaker. "We are overjoyed to have finally found the perfect partners at Shout! Factory to help give fans what they want."
"We are thrilled with this opportunity to work with Rainmaker Entertainment, a globally recognized studio for its stunning animation in film and TV," state Shout! Factory founding partners. "ReBoot is a celebrated TV property, boasting a large worldwide fan following. This program lines up perfectly with the Shout! Factory brand. We hope this is just the start of a mutually beneficial relationship with Rainmaker."
Shout! Factory plans an aggressive rollout of the ReBoot home entertainment line, beginning with the collectible complete series DVD box set release and digital distribution in 2011. It should be one of the most anxiously awaited releases of the year in terms of television on DVD.
The series follows Dot Matrix and her brother Enzo, plus thousands of friendly binomes, who live in Mainframe, which is plagued by viruses Megabyte and sister strain Hexadecimal. Guardian Bob is sent from the Net to protect them, and soon makes it his home. Together, they must prevent Megabyte from taking control of all the systems. As an added complication, games being played by the mystical User invade the system regularly, and must be defeated, or else portions of the city are laid waste.
