Also new this week

"My So-Called Life" (Shout! Factory, 1994, Not Rated): Before the superior "Freaks and Geeks," "My So-Called Life" was the first TV show that got 20th century high school kids right, tackling all their problems (both real and exaggerated) without the flat preachiness of an after-school special. The series made stars out of Claire Danes and Jared Leto, and while they've long since moved on, for many the show exists as a sort of virtual universal yearbook. This set features the usual cast and crew retrospectives, testimonials from such fans as "Buffy" creator Joss Whedon and a big ol' book of photos. For those with teens, especially girls, it's a collection worth keeping in mind for when gift-buying season really kicks in.

"No End in Sight" (Magnolia, 2007, Not Rated): No one seems to be doing much about the war in Iraq, but we can rest assured that every last mistake made in the lead-up to the mess is being documented better and more extensively than nearly any conflict in history. There's little dirty laundry in "No End in Sight" that hasn't been aired before, but the way it's put together by Charles Ferguson is galvanizing, disturbing, disheartening and withering in its comprehensive catalog of the incompetence and arrogant decisions behind this international tragedy.

"The Other Side of the Mirror: Live at Newport Folk Festival 1963-1965" (Sony, 2007, Not Rated): Ever wonder just what a big deal it actually was when Bob Dylan plugged in at the Newport Folk Festival in 1965? Look no further than this before-and-after collection, which successfully compares and contrasts the political folk singer Dylan of 1963 and 1964 with the firebrand rocker of '65.
