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:
“We follow where the Swamp Fox guides,
His friends and merry men are we;
And when the troop of Tarleton rides,
We burrow in the cypress tree.
The turfy hammock is our bed,
Our home is in the red deer’s den,
Our roof, the tree-top overhead,
For we are wild and hunted men.”
—William Gilmore Simms (1806–1872)
“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)
“As nature requires whirlwinds and cyclones to release its excessive force in a violent revolt against its own existence, so the spirit requires a demonic human being from time to time whose excessive strength rebels against the community of thought and the monotony of morality ... only by looking at those beyond its limits does humanity come to know its own utmost limits.”
—Stefan Zweig (18811942)
