Fans of "Damages" as well as those that got disconnected from the series after it left FX will want to get their orders in now for "Damages: The Complete Third Season" DVD which becomes available one week from today, June 12, 2011. While I'm sure the roasters will have plenty of material, it just seems a bit too easy, doesn't it? Not coincidentally, the Roast will air the same night that Ashton Kutcher debuts on "Two and a Half Men."
