Laughter proves once again to be the best medicine when Sony Pictures Home Entertainment releases The Big C: The Complete Second Season on DVD.
The critically acclaimed Sony Pictures Television original series stars Laura Linney, Golden Globe® winner for her role as Cathy Jamison, a reserved suburban housewife who is diagnosed with stage four melanoma and opts to fight back through humour, sarcasm and some spontaneous choices along the way.
The Big C also stars Oliver Platt (Frost/Nixon), John Benjamin Hickey (Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen) and Gabriel Basso (TV’s “The Middle”). The second season’s three-disc set will contain special features including deleted scenes and a gag reel.
The Big C: The Complete Second Season gets the star treatment with special guests including Alan Alda (TV’s “M*A*S*H), Academy Award® nominee Gabourey Sidibe (Precious), Cynthia Nixon (Sex and the City) and Hugh Dancy (Martha Marcy May Marlene).
The Big C is created by Darlene Hunt (TV’s “90210”), who also serves as executive producer along with Jenny Bicks (TV’s “Men in Trees”), Laura Linney, Neal H. Moritz (I Am Legend) and Vivian Cannon (TV’s “Emily’s Reasons Why Not”). Mark Kunerth (TV’s “Friends”) and Michael Engler (TV’s “Party of Five”) are co-executive producers. The series is co-produced by Cara DiPaolo (TV’s “Ugly Betty) and Melanie Marnich (TV’s “Big Love”).
Laura Linney returns in her Golden Globe®-winning role as Cathy Jamison in “The Big C.” Following the medical diagnosis that rocked her safe world, Cathy finally shares the news with her family and decides to pursue experimental treatment. She quickly bonds with her fellow patient, Lee (Hugh Dancy) but isn’t so sure about her new doctor (Alan Alda).
Co-starring Oliver Platt and guest-starring Gabourey Sidibe, Cynthia Nixon and Parker Posey, this inspirational and bravely funny second season celebrates a life worth fighting for.
