New TV on DVD and Blu-ray May 14 includes ‘Liz & Dick,’ ‘Dexter,’ ‘WrestleMania XXIX,’ ‘Top Gear,’ ‘Mythbusters,’ ‘Dance Academy,’ ‘My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic,’ ‘Taz-Mania,’ ‘Power Rangers Samurai,’ ‘Fraggle Rock,’ and complete series sets of ‘Roseanne,’ ‘3rd Rock from the Sun’ and ‘That 70s Show.’
