I purchased this DVD from Amazon.com and am thrilled with the quality of the product, and with the service from Amazon. The DVD has many features that I did not even know were there and which added to my enjoyment of it. Thankyou, to the people and the intelligent programme at Amazon, which makes it an 'Amazin' way to shop.

Best SciFi Series 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

Great Series to follow the SG-1 Franchise. This season introduces some new characters, which in turn amps up the action.

Season TWO of an EXCELLENT show 4 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

I saw the movie Stargate but never watched SG-1. I was missing my dose of Sci Fi. I still miss Babylon 5 and the Trek series (not enterprise). SGA is a welcome addition to my library.

Season 2
DVD Set:
1. The discs are great and easy to take them out.
2. Slim type case gives extra room, not like the Buffy, Babylon 5, Lois & Clark to name a few that take a lot of space.
3. THERE ARE SCENE SELECTIONS ON THIS SET. Thank you for that... I hated that season 1 did not have them.
4. All episodes come with a commmentary, excellent.. you can watch it with or without giving you double the pleasure.
5. The menu is much better than in season one. It is easy to read and navigate.
6. The art on the cases and DVD is OK, nothing fancy but it does not look like a bad print like in the Beauty and the Beast series.

THE SERIES.

Like other reviewers I will agree that the cast is much better in season two. I did not like the character played by Rainbow Sun and I still not care for Ronan. All the other characters are great. The deadelus and its captian are a welcomed addition to the series, giving in it a great sense of power in the pegasus galaxy.

All the episodes are great and built momentum, but the final three episodes including the finale are lacking the excitement of season one. The final episode ends with a cliffhanger, that does not (at least to this reviewer) make you sit on the edge of your seat waiting for season three to star. Through the season we watched conflicts within the crew, friends and enemies to be let down at the end.

It is still an excellent show, highly recommended to add to any sci fi library. If you do not have any of the four seasons, buy them in the pack (I did), and at the time was cheaper than individually.

Sit down and enjoy the show.

Editorial Review:

Nicknamed the "Not Ready for Prime Time Players," the original cast of Saturday Night Live ignited a comedy revolution with their mix of irreverent characters and satirical impressions of political figures and pop culture icons. From the premiere of this groundbreaking sketch comedy show on October 11, 1975, live from historic Studio 8H in New York City's Rockefeller Center, Dan Aykroyd, John Belushi, Jane Curtin, Chevy Chase, Garrett Morris, Laraine Newman, and Gilda Radner launched themselves into instant stardom and were often referred to as "The Beatles of Comedy." Created by Lorne Michaels over three decades ago, Saturday Night Live has had the cultural impact and relevance that few shows can claim. Nowhere else can you see the complete first season of SNL, featuring hosts George Carlin, Rob Reiner, Lily Tomlin, Richard Pryor, Elliott Gould, Candice Bergen, or original musical performances by Simon & Garfunkel, ABBA, Patti Smith, Jimmy Cliff, and Carly Simon. And if you're curious as to how the original cast was hired, check out the DVD bonus features, which include the screen tests of each performer.

I sent it back as soon as I got it. It was missing the booklet that comes with the package. That is just as important to me as the dvd's. I may seek out a different source in the future.

This was to be a gift - I returned my order and the replacement order to Amazon because neither had the book with the set. I obtained this product from another source and received everything Amazon's picture shows - including the BOOK. The person to whom this was a gift is an avid Simpsons fan and the book was important to her.

Classic Simpsons 5 out of 5 stars.

I start my review this way because The Simpsons is approching Season 20 as I write this review. And only in the last several years has the show started to show serious signs of age!I am 28 now and this is a Simpson season I fondly remember one of my fathers' co-workers dubbing off of cable for us because we didn't have it;it was on right before "Married With Children" at the time if I recall. I cannot watch this season without images of "Don't Have A Cow Man" T-Shirts and even McDonalds offering a line of Simpson dolls;for a time they were as big a marketing item as The Beatles were in the 60's. It's funny how irreverant,witty,anti-authoritarian figures such as The Beatles and The Simpsons could have any capitalist angles but they did. But these 13 shows have a lot of special meaning to me. In this season Bart cheats on a test and ends up branded a genious,Marge has a near affair with a hursuit bowling teacher,Lisa jams her blues away with local jazzman Bleeding Gums Murphy (am I the only Simpson fan out there who liked this character?) and the entire family give each other electroshock treatment. Of course being when this is this season sometimes seems like the Bart Simpson show;Bart goes to France,Bart fights a bully,Bart outsmarts the babysitter bandit,Bart reveals Sideshow Bob had framed Krusty The Clown,etc. But before Homer became the breakout character Bart was the star vehicle. But that doesn't matter.Neither does the difference in the animation;the main characters have very rubbery movements,a lot of the backround characters are either horrible mutants or just look like blobs with faces in the crowd scenes. Not only that but Bart isn't as full of clever quips as he would be later,Homer talks more like Walter Matheau then he would later on and Ned Flanders hasn't yet become a religious fanatic;he was just the Simpsons yuppie neighbor at this point. But as a later Simpsons episode pointed out sometimes TV show change after a pilot or first season;some characters are baught upfront or pushed into the backround and sometimes you can change them almost entirely. Interestingly enough this would be the last of The Simpsons I'd see for another five years;I caught seasons 2 and on through network syndication. I have since diligantly purchased the DVD sets and will continue to do so but still this stands out as really one of my favorite Simpson seasons.

Good buy for a SBTB fan 4 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

I bought this dvd set along with seasons 3/4 and 5 a month or so ago and have been enjoying watching them with my wife. Brings back great memories from watching this show when we were younger. Overall, I have no complaints except for the way the episodes are grouped/ordered (which doesn't seem to be an uncommon complaint). For some reason, the episodes don't seem to be presented in the order in which they originally aired. However, while this can take away from the flow of the seasons as a whole, it's still fun to watch a was still a worthwhile purchase. Good enough that we decided to buy SBTB: Hawaiian Style/Wedding in Vegas and SBTB: The College Years to complete our collection.

Saved by the Bell is still one of my favorite tv shows. Even after all these years, Zack's antics bring a smile to my face. ;)

I thought The Shield season 2 was a very good season and especially how it ended. One very intresting thing that happend during the end of this season was Vic and his strike robbing a money train that contained millions. To find out why this occured, buy this season and discover other shocking happenings. You will not regret buying this season.

After I watched Season 1 I thought that maybe I shouldn't buy Season 2. There is no way Season 2 could top the first season. Well it did. Season 2 is great! A must buy for a fan of the Shield!

Sixth season...we fell in love with the characters over the years and are sorry to see them go, but we learned from them, we laughed and cried with them and enjoyed their lives. Sounds like a crazy person talking right? Well...really this show gets to you...you can watch for hours and hours and still love it. Watch them again and again and again. My daughter has SCRUBS parties where her and her friends sit around and watch the episodes...a house full of teenagers quiet and watching intently. WOW!

I wasn't so sure about Seinfeld, but when I saw it pretty cheap I decided to give it a chance. I is a very good show with good acting, not very funny, but very fun to watch!

No "Stranded"? 4 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

The only thing that kept me from giving 5 stars is the fact that for a 23 episode season, my copy only contains 22 episodes. "The Stranded" does not appear on any of the 4 discs! No explanation as to why, it just isn't there. That episode contains one of Elaine's best lines (imho): "Maybe the dingo ate your baby.", followed by this ridiculous stoned smile. Cracks me up. Otherwise, great show, great cast, just great all around. If anybody out there knows why that episode wasn't included, please let me know...or maybe I have the only copy of the season with 22 instead of 23 episodes...

Editorial Review:

Relive your favorite Seinfeld moments like never before in this 4-disc set with all 22 episodes from the third season remastered in high definition for the best possible picture and sound quality! With approximately 13 hours of exclusive special features from the creative talents behind the show, this DVD is a must own!

I adored the show when I watched it in Italian (I was like 10 years at that time).
Now that I'm 25 and I had the chance of watching it in the original version, I can't help loving it even more: amazing cast, funny stories, catchy songs...what more can you ask to a tv show?

Thank you, Amazon, for giving me the opportunity of affording to buy the whole collection! <3

Excellent! 5 out of 5 stars.

Saved by the Bell - Season Five includes the Tori episodes and the classmates senior year at Bayside High. I love, love, love this classic teen dramedy. Leanna Creel played tough biker chick Tori in a dozen episodes but if you look closely Kelly and Jessie are never in the same episodes with her, just Lisa and the three guys. I highly recommend this short but fantastic season. Buy it today!

TWO OF MY FAVORITE ROUTINES HERE..... 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

This is a review of the VHS version. I normally do not do movie or T.V. reviews, but I purchased this one and felt I should have my say. The only, and I mean only reason I purchased this one was for Martin's two routines featured here; King Tut and Theodoric of York, Medieval Barber. Of all the skits Martin participated in, these two are my favorite. In fact, they are my favorite skits of all the early SNL show I watched. I was not disappointed!
This particular VHS tape includes:

The Festruuk brothers (The Wild and Crazy Guys)
Theodoric of York, Medieval Barber
Senor Lopez
King Tut

It also includes routines by Father Guido Sarducci and the Blues Brothers which are actually pretty funny in themselves.

If you like these routines, you will be happy with this tape. If you do not, you won't. Do remember that taste in entertainment changes with age and try to keep a younger frame of mind when watching.

This tape is 73 minutes long. The quality is good and I certainly have no complaints. Perhaps I will graduate to DVDs one day, but not yet.
