Can't wait for Smash to return for its second season on Feb. 5? You're in luck!

NBC's breakout hit's first season is finally available on DVD and Blu-ray, giving you the chance to watch a Broadway show from the comfort of your couch anytime you want.

We've got an exclusive clip from one of the DVD's special features, which highlights Megan Hilty's amazing turn as Ivy on Smash and features costar Debra Messing singing (pun fully intended) her praises!

"Megan Hilty is Broadway baby all the way," Messing gushes of her costar in a behind-the-scenes featurette. "I mean, she's got that big, belting voice that you associate with a Broadway star."

And Messing wasn't the only one praising Hilty's spectacular turn on the show. "Megan is just the embodiment of Marilyn [Monroe]," creator Theresa Rebeck, who stepped down as showrunner during season one, praises.

Of course, Hilty's character Ivy faces her fair share of struggles on the show. "She's been in the chorus her whole life," Hilty explains of her character. "She's frustrated with where she's at because she's desperately wanting to move on to the next level and nobody will give her the chance."

Smash season one is available on DVD and BluRay today, Jan. 8.

(E! and NBC are both part of the NBCUniversal family).
