As a Buffy fan I love me some Eliza Dushku, but I never really got into this coroner/time traveller tale.  Fox Home Entertainment has repackaged both first and second seasons of Tru Calling together for a complete series set.  In the series, Dushku stars as a woman working the night shift in the morgue who discovers the ability to re-start her day in order to save someone’s life.  Fans of the show can check out the series’ intro and a short interview with its star below.  The 7-disc box set will be avialable on August 12th.
