Bender's Game 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

Finally the Futurama that you have been waiting for! Lets face it the last two Futurama Movies have been just side of painful to watch, this one was the same recipe that you fell in love with when Futurama was still on Fox.

Best of the bunch so far 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 1 people found this review helpful.

This is the best of the bunch so far. The first movie looked like Futurama but it had no soul (and no balance). The second movie had its moments but it just sort of melted away (unmemorable). This third installment... Wow! Extremely funny during the first watch, and plenty good for many subsequent viewings. This movie is as good as the TV series episodes, but more refined.

Editorial Review:

With fuel prices skyrocketing, the Planet Express crew sets off on a dangerous mission: to infiltrate the world's only dark-matter mine, source of all spaceship fuel. But deep beneath the surface lies a far stranger place... a medieval land of dragons and sorcery and intoxicated knights who look suspiciously like Bender. So park your hover-car and saddle up your unicorn for Futurama's grandest adventure yet: BENDER'S GAME!

Prison Break Season 3 just as good as Seasons 1 and 2 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

Prison break continues to be a great "seat of the pants" show...Prison Break Season 3 lives up to the first two seasons. I highly recommend the entire series.

The strike affected all Prison Break fans...but. 4 out of 5 stars.

At first I kinda felt the 3rd season of Prison Break started off a little stale. Then by the third episode I was hooked as usual. You got Scofield dumped in the most horrific prison known to man. You got Bellick walking around half-naked lookin' like something the cat dragged in, after it threw it up. Mahone is going through some serious withdrawal issues. And Linc on the outside pretty much clueless. My boy Sucre is still hangin' around dedicated to Michael for all he's done. T-Bag continues his menacing wrath. Newcomers, Whistler and Lechero and the vicious Gretchen a.k.a Susan B. make for some very interesting storylines. I agree that that daggone writer's strike did make this season seems rushed. It's all worth it though to see Wentworth Miller all hot and sweaty between a rock and a hard place.

McGyver Miami Style 4 out of 5 stars.
2 of 2 people found this review helpful.

Entertaining, action-paced, if a bit low on credibility. The Miami landscape is a definite plus.

Wow, James Bond has finally returned, and he's on TV 5 out of 5 stars.
2 of 2 people found this review helpful.

I am more of a CSPAN or History Channel watcher than USA, but this show is something special. I remember "it Takes a Thief" and Michael Westin makes Alexander Munday look like an amateur in almost every way. He's always betting on both his instinct and intimate knowledge of how people act in stress situations.
I had a swimming coach who once said "In a stress situation, you revert to what you know best" This show illustrates what taking that understanding to the Nth degree produces.
Michael's background narrative is informative and humorous. You know why and how the deal is going down. This adds to the suspense. You're constantly wondering how the assumptions will play out.
I like that he's a little too much of a good guy, but finally takes a few stacks of 100's off a pallet of money he's being forced to deliver to help a client.
His ex-girlfriend Fiona is so hot and chaotic. His Mom and younger brother's inclusion in the series create an interesting profile of how Michael Westin was shaped.
His best friend Sam is incredibly entertaining. Lightly sarcastic, big dog friendly (special forces friendly) and always making the move. His female relationships are a part of the comedy of this show. OH did I mention, it's hilarious too! Best new show I've seen in... Heck, I don't even know.
Let me conclude by saying that I own season nothing of anything except "Burn Notice." I will be picking up season two the instant it is available.

Editorial Review:

Michael Westen is a trained spy who receives a "burn notice" for an unstated reason & effectively is fired. Penniless, he returns to his hometown in Miami and freelances while trying to find who burned him.

Great show 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 2 people found this review helpful.

I never watched much of Angel when it was on the air. I didn't watch Buffy either, but I had always wanted to watch both based on the reviews and word of mouth. I saw just enough to tantalize but I always was reticent about diving into something half way through.
So earlier this year I bought the entire Buffy series on DVD and watched it in about two months, from start to finish. It went beyond my expectations with the great writing, intriguing stories, and interesting characters. So after finishing it I ended up getting Angel, to see where his story led to after he left Sunnydale.
Though both series were different I appreciated how they tied together for the four years they were on at the same time.

Buffy always had a more specific path to follow whereas Angel is much more meandering, with no real "Big Bad" that haunts him throughout an entire season. We get to see Angel and the supporting cast all shift, change, transform, and mature in so many different ways throughout the series, making it easy for me to attach to them and enjoy them both at their best and worst.
People have told me that Angel was darker than Buffy. For me, it was more that he did not have a specific path to follow. "We help the helpless" was the mantra for a long time but even with that it gets a little hazy in Angel's world as to what is supposed to happen. For Buffy, it was always clearer. At least the big picture.

Both series have so much to offer for fans that it would be hard for me to say which I liked better. Most of the folks who would think to pick up either series on DVD probably already have their minds made up and were previous fans. So I consider myself lucky that I was able to cough up the dough for both series and was able to watch them both, for the first time, episode to episode, back to back.

The wonderful Simpson's Season 11 review. 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

This is not so much a review per se of the simpson's 11th season DVD package of each episode as it is a statement of the quality of the product.

Matt Groneing and company always puts out a top notch product. Disc's that are full of a boat load of extras such as deleted scenes, episodes with commentary, featurettes, hidden easter eggs and other things that we all have come to love and expect from Matt and FOX home video.

The artwork is awesome and the collectable Krusty the clown box is top notch as well. Unlike other DVD's that are collectable and made with "Gimic" packaging that can't be placed with your other DVD's, this one can still stand up and be placed in line with all your other Simpson's season editions as FOX as been smart enough to place the Krusty head package inside a plastic sleeve that keeps the package together and upright so it can be placed or shelved like the other season of the Simpsons.

Altogether I would give this a 5 out of 5 stars. Quality packaging along with quaility episodes and special features. A wonderful Christmas gift for any Simpson's fan.

Also this seasons episodes were some of the best. They include, The Mansion Family, Saddlesore Galactica, Bart to the Future, Treehouse of Horror X, Brother's Little Helper and many others including the poignant episode where Ned's wife is accidently killed, "Alone Again, Naturu-diddily"

So enjoy all 22 Season 11 episodes and the countless special features which include audio commentary on ALL episodes, deleted scenes, original Sketches, Animation showcase, In line with Matt Groening, The many Faces of Krusty the clown plus many more. Also included is a Season 11 mini-booklet that contains all information on each and every episodes along with the credits and other information plus trivia.

Special guests that are in this seasons episodes include Lucy lawless, Kid rock, Dick Clark, Tim robbins, Butch Patrick, Jay North, Willie Nelson, Ron Howard, Henry Winkler, The B-52's, Penn & Teller and Britney spears as well as many many more.

You really can't pass up this seasons adventures which include Lisa growing up to become President, Moe getting a facelift, Bart and Homer end up in a Leper colony, Homer annoys Mel Gibson, Apu and Manjula have octuplets and Homer is abducted by evil horse-jockey trolls and Bart goes beserk on ADD medicine and plows through Springfield in a tank. Plus many more fun episodes.

This is a nifty little package that any TV fan will love and enjoy for years and years to come. I'm sure like me you can't wait to open this package up and watch these classics all over again.

Editorial Review:

Simpsons Season 11 includes all 22 episodes from the 11th season and bonus material on all 4 discs.

The Unit is my husband's favorite show, but since the third season was so chopped up because of the writer's strike it was difficult to follow the story. It's great to have access to it like this, my husband should enjoy his Christmas present.

Great half season, would be better if there's no strike. 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

This season has a very strong start. Due to the writer's guild on strike, this season never finish the way it supposed to be. It really happen to many other shows not particular this one.

I see overall video clarity improvement in this season. Check out my other reviews in Season 1 and 2.

Bottom line is you still get a great half season of drama.

top notch 5 out of 5 stars.

Simpson's: Still the Stuff of Silliness 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

Season ten was an historic season of the Simpsons. Granted, I like many other reviewers here, think season 9 was better, some might say, the best.

However, season ten had many important things, such as the last Phil Hartman episode (forever a sad day in Simpsons, Newsradio, comedy, etc). Also guest stars included the voices of Lisa Kudrow, Regis Philbin, Kathie Lee Gifford, Jerry Springer, Ed McMahon, Alec Baldwin, Kim Basinger, Ron Howard, Brian Grazer, George Carlin, Mark Hamill, The Moody Blues, Cyndi Lauper, John Madden, Troy Aikman, Dan Marino, Pat Summerall, Roosevelt Grier, Fred Willard, Dolly Parton, Rupert Murdoch, Yo La Tengo, Elton John, Hank Williams, Jr., Jasper Johns, Isabella Rossellini, Jack La Lanne, Stephen Hawking, and George Takei.

Episodes such as Hell Toupee (classic), D'Oh in the Wind (just watch it), Mayored to the mob(luke, be a jedi tonight), Homer to the Max (one of my top 5 fave episodes ever), and Simpsons over Tokyo (my favorite from this season) all combine to make for a solid Simpsons experience.

I would definitely recommend this to anyone interested in comedy, the Simpsons, or as a gift to someone who does. A very funny show, still in its prime/early-early decline. DEFINITELY worth the time and expense.

Thanks

What would I have wanted to know before I purchased the product? Perhaps that I was never going to receive the product in the first place!!! Still no season 6 of 24 and no refund either. Seller does not reply.
Will never use Amazon.com again. I learned my lesson.

Some critics don't think this season is as good as some earlier seasons. That may be so, but the tension and suspense are still great! Buy it...you'll like it.

Jack Bauer Power! 4 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

As always, I enjoyed this season of 24. I always buy a season and then go on vacation and watch it ALL!! I simply just cannot wait from one week to the next to see what is going to happen. However, this season, in my opinion was not as good as it probally could have been. Nevertheless, it was still fantastic. Looking forward to the next season, and vacation!

Editorial Review:

At the end of Season 5, Jack Bauer was kidnapped, beaten, and taken captive in retribution for his involvement in a raid on the Chinese Consulate eighteen months earlier. Now, there's a new president, Jack Bauer is missing, and the U.S. is under siege from terrorist attacks more threatening than anything we've ever encountered! There is only one thing that can save the nation: Jack Bauer must die.

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.

First, I was very pleased with the very fast shipping from Amazon. I live in Canada and my estimated delivery date was about 3-4 weeks after I purchased. Much to my surprise, the videos came in less than 2 weeks.

The videos themselves are very nice quality with good-looking menus and bonus features. Each season comes in well-designed cases.

I would recommend this amazing value to any Boston Legal fan!

One of the best series on TV in a decade. Current issues covering life across the board. An amazing blend of diverse dysfunctions among the lawyers and staff which worked. Morality and humanity wins again. BRAVO David Kelley.
