24 the show, 24 the release time.

For those not paying attention at home, the show premiered Sunday. That means the show is less than 12 hours old by the time it hits stores. I figure this has got to be some kind of interesting test to see how short they can cut it without taking buyer interest and tossing it out the window. Either that, or... I really can't see a reason, actually. I mean, getting the boxed set out pronto before the next season is SOP. Getting it out quick before the next season, not surprising (unless it's Lost). But releasing the first four hours/two episodes? Before the show's even done? That's just Crazy.
