The new release (Warner Bros., $34.98) features 21 episodes original broadcast in 1984-85 on three discs. It also features several bonus features, including a documentary called ‘The Jetsons: Return to the Future’ featuring interviews with writers, animators, historians, cast and crew.

Here’s a look at a couple clips from the release:

Coming to Blu-ray for the first time is Dragon’s Lair II: Time Warp (Digital Leisure, $39.95), the 1991 animated videogame sequel to the original arcade game Dragon’s Lair. The film, directed by Don Bluth, has been fully restored for the Blu-ray release, with a 5.1 audio mix and new HD features added, including interviews with game creators Bluth and Gary Goldman, a video commentary, the ability to watch the animation without playing the game and behind-the-scenes animation features.

Other animated offerings include the six-disc Peanuts Deluxe Collection (Warner Bros., $99.62) and Kids Cartoon Pack (Echo Bridge, $9.99).
