On December 11, 2005, a edition of the film that runs for 133 minutes was released on to DVD below the banner "unrated", which is seventeen minutes for a longer time than what was shown in theaters. Chris Serico of Today claimed this "has continued to resonate among the comedy fans, and served as a breakthrough motion picture for its director, Judd Apatow, and his co-author/star, Steve Carell" a 10 years following being introduced.
