Page 18 THE VILLADOM TIMES I, II, III & IV • February 19, 2014 DVD releases (continued from Restaurant page) Show” features Mordecai and Rigby, two groundskeepers at a park whose job is so deadly dull that they will do any- thing they can to avoid it. Their attempts to escape bore- dom take them to fantastic extremes. This doesn’t go over well with their boss Benson (an anthropomorphic gum ball machine), but their efforts often result in insane escapades that delight their co-workers and friends. In this collection, Mordecai’s crush, Margaret, shares the spotlight. From her introduction in “Caffeinated Concert Tickets” to “Steak Me Amadeus,” the bittersweet finale of Season Four, Mor- decai and Margaret’s relationship is explored in nearly three hours of episodes included on the DVD release. “Hindenburg: The Last Flight” (Anchor Bay) is a mini- series that purports to explain the real cause of the zep- pelin Hindenburg’s going up in flames in 1937, when the world was on the verge of war and the Hindenburg was the pride of Nazi Germany. This fictional account uses one of the most devastating accidents in aviation history to reveal an insider look into the story before the airship’s fatal des- tiny. Merten Kroeger (Maximilian Simonichek), is the young engineer who led the design of the legendary zep- pelin. A modest man of meager means, he falls in love with a wealthy socialite (Lauren Lee Smith) who is beyond his reach. She is the daughter of Edward van Zandt (Stacy Keach), a wealthy American oil industrialist with power and privilege who will stop at nothing to gain riches, even if it means putting the airship, with its passengers and crew, in danger. Fascination with the Hindenburg disaster has led to a number of theories of why and how it suddenly exploded while landing in Lakehurst, New Jersey. Scientists have attributed the cause to static electricity igniting the zep- pelin’s massive hydrogen supply, but this German-made mini-series, and the 1975 feature film “The Hindenburg,” both prefer to create fictional accounts. There are no bonus features on the DVD release. “Gentle Ben: Season Two” (Paramount) contains 28 episodes from the final season of this series. The show stars a young Clint Howard as Mark Wedloe and chron- icles his adventures with a lovable 650-pound American black bear named Ben (played by Bruno the Bear). Musi- cian and voice actor Candy Candido provides the voice of Ben; Dennis Weaver plays Mark’s father, Wildlife Officer Tom Wedloe; and Beth Bricknell has the role of the mother, Ellen. Rance Howard, Clint’s real-life father and the writer of several episodes for the show, plays the Wedloes’ neigh- bor and friend. Guest stars include Ron Howard, NFL foot- ball legend Bart Starr, and Albert Salmi. The series was produced by Ivan Tors, creator of the Lloyd Bridges series, “Sea Hunt.” The four-disc DVD set contains no extras.
