On Nov 19th 2007 (UK) and Jan 22nd 2008 (US), a full season one box set was released by 2entertain and Warner Home Video respectively. This seven disc set contained all the previous bonuses, plus commentaries and the complete Declassifieds.

On the same day as the season two DVD sets, 2|entertain and Warner Home Video also issued hi-definition sets of the first season. In the US this was purely in the dominant Blu-Ray format. In the UK 2|entertain were rumoured to be releasing both Blu-Ray and HD-DVD versions, although it now appears the HD-DVD version may not be issued.
