SOTU Season 1 on DVD in November
TV Shows on DVD is reporting that the first season of State of the Union will be released on DVD November 11. No word yet on what extras, if any, will be included in the set. This is certainly a welcome development, especially when you consider the video fates of Tracey Takes On... (two or three VHS tapes, DVD season releases stopped after season 2) and The Tracey Ullman Show (missing in action, possibly forever). Stay tuned for updates as they become available.
And here's an update, again from TV Shows on DVD. They've got a picture of the cover, which may or may not be the final version, and there will be some extras.

Well, the Emmy Award nominations have been announced, and the news is good and bad. State of the Union picked up 3 nominations, all in technical categories:
In other news, according to YNet, Tracey is going to Israel on July 21 to promote State of the Union. Let's hope things remain quiet over there while she's there (I hope for that all the time, of course). I wonder if she'll make it up to Haifa and 'Akká....

Trailer for The Tale of Despereaux
When I went to see Wall-E at my local theater last Friday, one of the trailers was for The Tale of Despereaux, which is due out around Christmas. It's an animated film with an all-star cast, of which Tracey is a part. I believe her character was in the trailer, but I'm not positive of that; there is a scene in which Despereaux the mouse is closing the mouth of a screaming girl/woman, a scream which sounded a bit familiar to me.
This will probably be the next project we see (actually hear) her in, though I hope we have reason to see her at the Emmys in September.
