NICKELODEON’S HIT SERIES DEBUTS ON DVD
VICTORIOUS: SEASON ONE, VOLUME ONE 2-Disc DVD Available on July 5, 2011
“Tori Vega and the students at Hollywood Arts High School are ready to showcase their talents in their first DVD, Victorious: Season One, Volume One. The brand-new two-disc set includes the first ten episodes of the series, with an extended version of the pilot, special features and guest appearances by Jerry Trainer (iCarly) and celebrity blogger Jared Eng (JustJared.com). Make it shine with Nickelodeon’s latest hit series from the very beginning!”
“Victorious is created and executive-produced by Dan Schneider, who also created other Nickelodeon hits like iCarly, Drake & Josh, Zoey 101, The Amanda Show and Kenan and Kel. The show follows teenager Tori Vega (Victoria Justice) who attends the prestigious performing arts high school, Hollywood Arts. From her first day at the school, however, Tori feels out of place among the talented students, especially mean diva Jade (Elizabeth Gillies, Broadway’s 13). But with the help of her older sister Trina (Daniella Monet, A Fairly Odd Movie, Nancy Drew) and new friends including the musically gifted Andre (Leon Thomas III, August Rush, Broadway’s The Lion King, iCarly), brooding bad boy Beck (Avan Jogia, Spectacular!), eccentric Cat (Ariana Grande, Broadway’s 13) and lovable but psychologically scrambled ventriloquist Robbie (Matthew Bennett) – Tori realizes that she was born to perform and that entertaining people not only makes her happy but may change her life. The series, a co-production with Sony Music, features original songs performed by Justice and the ensemble cast. Since its launch last April, Victorious has been the number-one program in its timeslot on all TV with kids 6-11, tweens 9-14, and teens 12-17, reaching 14.4 million kids, 15.1 million tweens, and 11.4 million teens each quarter.”
Do you have tween-age girls? Then odds are they already love Victorious! If they don’t then they probably haven’t seen it. My little sister loves Victorious and was super excited to help me review the Victorious Season One Volume One 2 disc DVD set. She loves all the episodes 10 total, and the bonus features, her favorites are the music videos. This is a great gift for any girl!
