(continued from Restaurant page) Ruppert himself calmly presents his predictions with the assurance of a college professor who knows the textbook far better than the authors. Not exactly smug, he sometimes comes across as humoring those who simply cannot see the portents of doom. Extras include deleted scenes and a theatrical trailer. “Marcus Welby, M.D.: Season One” (Shout! Factory) stars Robert Young as kind and caring family practitioner Dr. Marcus Welby and James Brolin as Dr. Steven Kiley, his young, motorcycle-riding associate. The highest-rated medical drama on TV for seven consecutive seasons, “Marcus Welby” aired on ABC from 1969 to 1976, paving the way for such popular hits as “House, M.D.,” “Grey’s Anatomy,” and “Royal Pains.” Week after week, Dr. Welby encountered devastating disorders, but confronted them with honesty and dedicated compassion. He even made house calls. The show reversed the common formula, with the older and wiser Welby embracing unorthodox treatments while younger Dr. Kiley had the tried-and-true, straitlaced approach. The seven-disc set contains 26 episodes including one -- “The Daredevil Gesture” -- directed by Steven
Spielberg, and the original two-hour pilot movie, “A Matter of Humanities.” Guest stars include Anne Baxter, David Cassidy, Robert Guillaume, Vera Miles, Butch Patrick, and Richard Thomas. “Hiromi in Love” (Music Gate) is a collection of 11 elaborate music videos of songs from the Great American Songbook performed by Hiromi Kanda. Born in Nagasaki, Japan, Kanda was exposed to American music via the armed forces personnel stationed in the city. At 19, she appeared on an “American Idol”-type Japanese TV talent show, beating out an initial two million applicants, and signed a recording contract. The videos on this Blu-ray disc are beautifully photographed, combining performance footage with story segments and smooth visual segues from one video to the next. Kanda is elegantly costumed in gowns, often sporting a series of gardenias in her hair, perhaps a tribute to Billie Holiday. The selections include songs associated with pop vocalists (“Unforgettable,” Nat King Cole; “In the Wee Small Hours of the Morning,” Frank Sinatra; “Cry,” Johnnie Ray), big band classics (“I’ll Never Smile Again”), and a Gershwin hit (“Someone to Watch over Me”). Kanda, accompanied by the Honolulu Symphony Orchestra, interprets these standards with style, giving each song its own unique interpretation. There are two bonus music-only tracks.
