Wildfire season fourToday, we have a long-awaited DVD release, Alyson Hannigan recalls Willow’s hair color, rare items from The Golden Girls go up for auction, a former Blue Mountain State star goes to jail, a previous winner visits The Price Is Right again, and some dates in TV history.

Wildfire
It’s been nearly four years since the release of the third season of Wildfire and many fans have been chomping at the bit (pun intended) to purchase season four. Apparently the show hasn’t been a big seller so Lionsgate Entertainment isn’t giving the fourth season a retail release. Instead, they’re partnering with Amazon to issue the last season of Wildfire via the manufacture-on-demand (MOD) DVD program. You can purchase the four disc set for $26.99 from Amazon.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Ever wonder why Alyson Hannigan’s Willow ended up being a redhead? In a recent interview, the actress shared that it was for a practical reason. Hannigan, who has natural auburn hair, recalled, “Joss [Whedon] had us all over to his house… Charisma [Carpenter] and Sarah [Michelle Gellar] and I all had brown hair at the time. Joss said, ‘All of your hair is kind of the same shade. Does anyone want to be red?’ I went for it. Eventually Sarah got more and more blond, but it was because we all had a brownish, auburn mane.”
