Wow! 5 out of 5 stars.
2 of 2 people found this review helpful.

I had read about the critical acclaim for Mad Men and knew it wons awards etc. but had not seen an episode. I just bought a Blu-Ray player and needed a test disc so I bought Mad Men Season One. Wow! Excellent! I've watched 11 episodes in 3 days and can't wait to finish the Blu-Ray disc set ASAP. It just sucks you in. I've just pre-ordered Season Two's Blu-Ray disc set,....

The quality of the video in 1080 / Blu-Ray is outstanding. It easily convinced me that upgrading to a Blu-Ray player from a very good DVD player was worth it.

One of the Best Dramatic Series on Television 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

An absolutely fantastic telling of a story that centers around a group of Ad Executives that work at an Ad Agency on Madison Avenue in New York city, circa 1960. A great glimpse into how much America has changed since the 60's. Everyone smokes almost all of the time in every scene, they enjoy five martini lunches, and doting wives wait at home for their husbands with a roast in the oven. Wonderfully acted, engaging, superbly produced and filmed. This is one of the best dramatic series I have ever seen on television. I include Six Feet Under in the same category of quality. Very cinematic. The sound, picture, and extra features of the Blu-Ray version are second to none. Highly recommended.

A Pleasant Surprise 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

I didn't get to see most of these shows when they were originally broadcast, and I had wondered if the series was beginning to wear out, but no, when I did finally get the time to work my way through this fourth season I was pleasantly surprised. The wackiness was still there, and the pointed topics were still as sharp as ever. The Supreme Court episode was so clearly the manifestation of what David E. Kelley would like to say to the Court if he ever had the chance - which was pretty much what I would like to say to the Court. Outrageous, but right on target, like so many of B.L.'s episodes. I am constantly amazed at how William Shatner's character is developing over time, and Shatner's acting is wonderful. He says more with his facial expressions than many actors can say with their voices. He's come a long way from Star Trek days. While there have been some great woman characters on the show, IMO there still hasn't been a woman character who stands equal to Denny Crane or Alan Shore. Even Candace Bergan's character hasn't been written to the depth and strength of the others. But even so, this show remains one of my favorites and I have watched the DVD's through several times and haven't tired of it yet.

Editorial Review:

The quirky characters at Crane, Poole and Schmidt are at it again, bringing the most outrageous and often times improbable cases to court.

NOT the complete Deadwood 1 out of 5 stars.
4 of 18 people found this review helpful.

HBO cheated its customers with this series. When viewing figures were not high enough for them it ended the series with what must be one of the most unsatisfying final episodes ever seen. There was talk of a separate feature film that would wrap up the series properly but it looks as if that won't happen. Personally I have given up watching a lot of TV series because you simply never know when the producers will pull the plug and leave the viewer in mid plot.

Outstanding Series with R-rated Dialogue 4 out of 5 stars.
2 of 2 people found this review helpful.

"Deadwood: The Complete Series" is a 19-disc box set containing all 36 episodes from the four-season run of the cable drama set in 1876, just two weeks after the defeat of Custer at Little Big Horn. The Black Hills town of Deadwood is populated by illegal settlers, outlaws, prostitutes, gamblers, Chinese laborers, former soldiers, and the occasional family trying to survive. The show is notable for its excessive portrayal of violence and dialogue laced with colorful vulgarity, but it features some remarkable acting as well. Ian McShane as saloon owner Al Swearengen, Timothy Olyphant as former law enforcer Seth Bullock, and Keith Carradine as Wild Bill Hickok are standouts. Using the dramatic device of combining fictional characters with actual historical figures (Calamity Jane, Hickok) successfully and setting the stories in a specific time period makes the series far more intriguing than earlier TV westerns like "Bonanza" and "Gunsmoke," which seemed to exist exclusively on studio sets. Bonus extras include featurettes on the real Deadwood, a Q & A with the show's cast and creative team, a tour of the show's detailed sets, and an "Al Swearengen Audition Reel."

Escaping Fox River was just the beginning. Michael Scofield, Lincoln Burrows and the rest are out and on the run. Season 2 is more nail-biting, non-stop action and introduces Michael's smartest and most dangereous nemises yet - agent Alex Mahone (William Fitchner). A couple of good making-of extras, but would have like to see more actor commentaries.

NCIS Season 5--Beneath The Surface... 4 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

There has been a pattern in the writing of NCIS that has always been fascinating. Ever since "Bete Noire" in Season 1, this series has always used it's season finale to essentially set up the next season's finale. "Bete Noire" introduced Ari Haswari. In the finale to Season 1, Jethro Gibbs shot Ari to cover Haswari's double agent status--though Gibbs would have preferred to kill Ari. Because Ari wasn't killed at the end of Season 1, he was able to murder Kate Todd at the end of Season 2. Because Ari shot Kate at the end of Season 2--and more importantly, WHY he chose to murder her--we were able to get the backstory of Gibbs revealed, the tragedy surrounding his first wife and daughter, which culminated with Jethro leaving the MTAC at the end of Season 3. Because of Gibbs' "retirement", NCIS Director Jenny Shepard was able to initiate her off-the-books operation against Rene Benoit, using Tony DiNozzo to romance La Grenouille's daughter Jeanne.
So as we get into Season 5, we have the culmination of Shepard's attempt to avenge her father's death by killing Benoit, though she crosses both the CIA and the FBI in the attempt. "Bury Your Dead"--especially its final scene--sets the tone for the season. Though the show has its usual action, interplay between its characters, and bawdiness that has made the show such a wonderful view, there also seems a certain weight to the season. The regular viewer knows the story with The Frog isn't over, moreover there has to be a deeper reason why Shepard seemed willing to pursue Benoit without government sanction. It is the playing out of this season that, again while the season has its usual fun, seems to give the season a somewhat sad tone.
Still, the performances are at their usual high standards. Mark Harmon's Gibbs is his usual self, though we are once again shown more of Jethro's past and his genuine heart. While Michael Weatherly's Tony DiNozzo is his usual obnoxious self, the aftermath of the La Grenouille affair leaves our boy shaken, both because of his feelings for Jeanne and being used by Shepard. Tony's conscience comes in the form of Ziva David; who, while enjoying her usual verbal sparring with DiNozzo, also makes Tony own up to his feelings about what happened and what it may have done to Jeanne. Cote De Pablo's Ziva, with her hair straightened and deemphasizing her widow's peak, becomes a more Americanized woman (and the shots of Cote bending over ain't too bad, either). We didn't have an episode that featured Sean Murray's Tim McGee a season after The Probie's year with his nom de plume (Thom E. Gemcity), but Pauley Perrette's wonderful Abby Sciutto gets her usual fun, especially in "Dog Tags". David McCallum's Ducky Mallard is most representative of the tone of the season, because he becomes privy to the secret that Jenny hides through the season.
This leads to Lauren Holly, and the end of the Jenny Shepard storyline. Shepard seems calmer this season, especially after the disappearance of The Frog (Even propositioning Gibbs in "Lost And Found"), but we figure something had to have been motivating Jenny attempting something that would compromise the agency. That something plays out through the season, and is revealed in "Judgement Day", the two-part season finale, which of course sets the table for Season 6.
The high points of this season are "Ex-File", in which a part of Jethro's past becomes a part of an investigation (Plus, we get a visit from Susana Thompson's Hollis Mann--this episode is capped by a wonderfully sad sequence at the end), "Internal Affairs" (The body of La Grenouille resurfaces, and we meet Rocky Carroll's Leon Vance--Carroll draws greatly from Daniel Benzali's character in "The Agency" from earlier this decade), "About Face" (Where Brian Dietzen's Jimmy Palmer is featured, and reveals a slight obsession with footwear), "Judgement Day" (Which brings Gibbs and Shepard's long-ago Paris operation--the one where they also became lovers--to a full circle, as well as Jethro coming to a sad conclusion about the murder of The Frog), and the simply magnificent "Requiem", in which Gibbs, while aiding the now-grown best friend of his late daughter, is finally able to put to rest the loss of Shannon and Kelly.
Performances of note are Joe Spano--we don't see as much of Tobias Fornell as we usually do during a season. Susana Thompson, whose character retired from the Army when she realized Jethro hadn't recovered from losing his wife and daughter (Why do I suspect that Holly will appear again--in Hawaii, living on the grounds of a novelist, and driving a Ferrari?). Susan Kelichi Watson's Nikki Jardine, the NCIS Intelligence Analyst who happens to be a germophobe (Leading to many moments where the team exploits Jardine's phobia for their humor), and Muse Watson returning as Mike Franks in the season finale, with his usual cowboy demeanor. But Cameron Goodman's performance in "Requiem"--as Maddie Tyler, Kelly Gibbs' best friend as a child--gives the episode the impetus that sets Jethro toward finally making his peace with losing Shannon and Kelly.
NCIS has always been a fun show, with an ability to wrench at the heart in unexpected moments. This is a season that has an underlying tone of sadness and impending tragedy, and it gives the season some unusual depth.

Doesn't work 1 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

My review is not on the movie itself but the fact that the movie does not work in a machine that is both DVD as well as VCR. The movie pauses through out the entire thing. The movie will only work in a DVD player only. I have found this to be true with any movie I order online.

Editorial Review:

DVD: 05-51361 A Boyfriend for Christmas Kelli Williams (The Practice) is Holly Grant, an idealistic lawyer who gave up on finding Mr. Right in her stocking when she split with her last boyfriend. OSCAR nominee Charles Durning (To Be or Not to Be) plays Santa, who fulfills an old promise by bringing her and another attorney, Ryan Hughes (Patrick Muldoon), together. Due to an earlier misunderstanding, Ryan doesn’t want Holly to know who he is, so when Santa sends him to deliver a Christmas tree, he introduces himself as "Douglas Firewood." His well-meaning white lie threatens to derail a budding romance, and spoil Santa’s plan, in this warm-hearted holiday treat. Running Time: Approx. 100 Minutes Color/NTSC/Stereo

Battlestar Galactica season 3 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

Battlestar Galactica - Season Three Season three starts on New Caprica with bonus web episodes, Resistance, to whet the appetite for the first full ep of season three. All in all this pack is full of extras, more than you find on any other TV shows DVD pack. It's a full season pass, both with the actors and producers but the rest of the Galactica team, who make this one of the best shows in television history, and I aint just talking sci-fi here. The high points as always is Olmos, Sackoffe and McDonnell, who are always on their game, and of course my faves Grace Park and Tahmoh Penikett, have to admit they throw a couple of my faves actors out the air lock no more Jammer,Dominic Zamprogna. The low point is Jamie (I am a trained actor) Bamber whose stories as well as acting detract from another wise perfect season and cast. The third season the producers Eick and Moore give us an almost uncompromised television drama experience, that treats the viewer like they have a brain other than pandering to the expected happy endings and clean finishes they challenge the viewer (case in point the final five or four, this discovery is like the end of the miniseries when Boomer was revelled as a cylon...season three give you that same felling NOOOOOOOOOOO!). So season three is, Other than the miscast Apollo, still shines as Tv's Finest

Editorial Review:

The adventure of one of television's finest dramas continues with the complete third season of the Peabody Award-winning Battlestar Galactica. The Colonies' survivors have found their hopes of eluding their Cylon pursuers dashed by an invasion and occupation of their new home. As the fate of all human life hangs in the balance, friends become enemies, enemies become unexpected allies, and decisions are made that will haunt some people for the rest of their lives. Relive all 20 episodes of the season that challenges everything you thought you knew about the Battlestar Galactica universe. Presented in Dolby 5.1 surround sound, the 6-disc set features over 15 hours of extensive special features, including the DVD exclusive version of the episode "Unfinished Business" containing 25 additional minutes of never-before-seen footage. You won't want to miss a minute of the series considered "one of the best dramas on TV" (Time Magazine).

Editorial Review:

Senior year. A time to grow up, to forget, to forgive, to dream, to learn to love all over again. People come together -- except Dan, consumed by anger as he tracks down whoever started the fire that almost took his life. Tree Hill is rocked by powerful new events -- the good, the bad and the catastrophic. The good: Haley fights to save her marriage, Peyton comes to terms with her birth mother, Brooke creates a hot clothing line, and Keith comes home. The bad: Dan gets a rival for worst person in Tree Hill -- a conniving redhead named Rachel, the new girl at school. The catastrophic: Tragedy strikes Tree Hill High, and suddenly who wins the cheerleading tournament or basketball championship seems insignificant compared to who lives. And who doesn't.
