Home Video Release
The third season was officially released on DVD in region 1 on September 4, 2007, almost a month before the fourth season premiere, which aired on September 30, 2007. Under the title of "Desperate Housewives: The Complete Third Season – Dirty Laundry Edition", the box set consists of episodes with Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound and widescreen format. It also contained extras available only on DVD, including extended episodes, interviews with cast and crew members, footage from behind the scenes and unaired scenes cut from the aired episodes. The same set was released in region 4 on October 11, 2007, a month after the original release in the United States and Canada. The season has not been on Blu-ray disc in any region.
The box set is currently no. 2598 in Movies and Television on Amazon.com and no. 1951 in Film and Television on Amazon.co.uk. Rachel Thomas of About.com noted an improvement in the box set following the second season's "not-so-great" one, referring to how this season "brings the magic of this refreshing series back to the small screen", by calling each episode "delicious". Thomas expressed her enthusiasm in the box set by stating: "This bonus-rich DVD release offers fans loads of fascinating behind-the-scenes footage and an inside look into how the cast really gets along. You may be surprised while watching the hilarious outtakes and bloopers."

Famous quotes containing the words home, video and/or release:
“Sometimes it takes years to really grasp what has happened to your life. What do you do after you are world-famous and nineteen or twenty and you have sat with prime ministers, kings and queens, the Pope? What do you do after that? Do you go back home and take a job? What do you do to keep your sanity? You come back to the real world.”
—Wilma Rudolph (1940–1994)
“It is among the ranks of school-age children, those six- to twelve-year-olds who once avidly filled their free moments with childhood play, that the greatest change is evident. In the place of traditional, sometimes ancient childhood games that were still popular a generation ago, in the place of fantasy and make- believe play . . . today’s children have substituted television viewing and, most recently, video games.”
—Marie Winn (20th century)
“If I were to be taken hostage, I would not plead for release nor would I want my government to be blackmailed. I think certain government officials, industrialists and celebrated persons should make it clear they are prepared to be sacrificed if taken hostage. If that were done, what gain would there be for terrorists in taking hostages?”
—Margaret Mead (1901–1978)
