Besides the fact that Bluray cases are smaller physically (plus 4-disc sets like Planet Earth fit into one regular sized Bluray case -- of 4 bluray discs), I don't think they're going to have an entire season of DVD-quality video one one disc.

The point of Bluray is the high definition, which takes up more room on the disc. So things like "24" will take up the same amount of discs, but will look much better on your HDTV.

Of course, if you buy a Bluray burner for your computer and you create a menu and copy your "24" DVDs onto it.. well, that's a different story. Then yeah, I'm sure you could get it all on one disc without much quality loss
