Two of the biggest new television series are coming to DVD this fall. Desperate Housewives: The Complete First Season and Lost: The Complete First Season are set to debut on Sept. 20 and Sept. 6 respectively. The DVD editions of both ABC series will have a suggested retail price of $59.99.

In addition to all the episodes from its premier season, the Desperate Housewives set will contain an alternate ending of the season finale, unrated versions of episodes, a making-of, commentaries, a documentary on the series' popularity, a look at the fashions of Wisteria Lane's inhabitants.

In its six discs, the Lost set will also contain the original pilot, behind-the-scenes footage, deleted scenes, casting tapes, outtakes, commentaries, featurettes and a roundtable discussion. No official word on the rumor that co-creators J.J. Abrams and Damon Lindelof are going to include an exclusive mini-movie.

Both sets will be released by Buena Vista Home Entertainment.
