CENTURY CITY, Calif. – The Unit’s top secret military world of conspiracy, danger and nail-biting suspense continues with compelling revelations about the team, their personal lives and the Unit’s increasingly complex nature as “The Unit” Season Three arrives on DVD October 14th from Fox Home Entertainment. Golden Globe®-nominee* Dennis Haysbert (“24”), Scott Foley (“Felicity”) and Robert Patrick (“The X-Files”) star in the Emmy®-nominated** series as members of a covert Special Forces team operating outside the usual military chain of command, their identities highly classified as they risk their lives on dangerous missions at home and abroad. But upon returning home from a successful mission the men are thrust into their most perilous situation yet when they discover the Unit is on stand-down pending investigation of criminal actions by their leader Jonas Blane (Haysbert) and those under his command. The men all fall under suspicion which quickly escalates to physical assault and are forced to use the skills they¹ve honed in the field to protect themselves and their families as they race to uncover who is behind the attacks which grow increasingly more deadly.
From Shawn Ryan, the creator of “The Shield,” and Pulitzer Prize-winning writer/director David Mamet (Redbelt), “The Unit” Season Three three-disc DVD collection includes all 11 episodes presented in widescreen, plus bonus features including deleted scenes, behind-the-scenes featurette and more. The DVD set is available for the suggested retail price of $39.98 U.S / $54.98 Canada.

Series Synopsis:
Known only as “The Unit,” they are an ultra-secret contingent of Special Forces soldiers who operate outside the usual military chain of command. Their very existence is a closely held secret protected by the soldiers themselves. Their wives, who are also in on the secret, strictly adhere to a fictitious cover story that is provided for them. “The Unit” chronicles a team of unknown heroes who, without ever receiving credit, risk their lives while protecting others.
