The Aquabats! Super Show! Season One on DVD(0)
It may surprise you to know that I was an Aquabats fan long before they arrived on TV. They came out of Orange County in the mid-nineties with their own blend of ska and surf music. For their stage shows, they dressed up in spandex superhero costumes and needless to say, they didn’t take themselves ...
Maverick: The Complete Second Season on DVD
Warner Home Video just released Maverick: The Complete Second Season on DVD and I had a chance to take a look at it before it hit the streets. This 1957 series stars James Gardner as Bret Maverick, a professional gambler who roams the Western United States in search of a good game but usually ends ...
Return of the Beverly Hillbillies Strikes a Few Nostalgic Chords
The 1980′s was the decade of the TV reunion movie. We saw I Dream of Jeannie 15 Years Later, More Wild Wild West, the Return of The Man from U.N.C.L.E.: The Fifteen Years Later and we visited with The Harlem Globetrotters on Gilligan’s Island. Could it be that the kids who grew up with these shows ...
Help! It’s the Hair Bear Bunch Producer Spill on How Joe Flynn Didn’t Work as Joe Flynn
Warner Archives is slowly working their way through all of the 1970′s Hanna-Barbera cartoons and the latest is Help! It’s the Hair Bear Bunch!

Carol Burnett Show: This Time Together is a collection of 17 complete and unedited episodes featuring guest appearances by Dick Van Dyke, Sammy Davis Jr., Bernadette Peters, Roddy McDowall, and a young up and comer named Lily ...
Gossip Girl: The Complete Sixth and Final Season on DVD
A soap opera about rich kids in New York City doesn’t sound like a show I’d watch, but there was always something deliciously tantalizing about Gossip Girl that pulled me right in. I guess it was the mysterious Gossip Girl herself, watching everyone, cataloging their moves . . . like Pretty Little Liars’ “A” but ...

Being Human: The Complete Second Season on DVD
Being Human is Syfy’s re-imagining of the popular UK series with the same name. From a character standpoint, the two versions of the show are very similar, but there are enough differences plot and style wise that you can watch and enjoy both the UK and US version. The story revolves around three paranormal creatures ...
Dallas: The Complete First Season (2012) on DVD
Anytime a production company says they’re going to remake a classic TV show, I cringe, then I get excited. These projects generally come out of the gate surrounded by negative opinions on how they’re going to dishonor the memory or make a mockery of a beloved series. There have been reboots that failed – Bionic ...
Friends: The Complete Series on Blu-Ray – Laughter Never Looked So Good
Family sitcoms have been a source of entertainment since the early days of radio. On TV we had Father Knows Best, The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriett, The Brady Bunch and Family Ties. Then, in 1994, we got our first look at a different kind of family sitcom – a family that is made up ...

Two Saban Kid’s Classics Come to DVD: Beetleborgs and VR Troopers
Back in the early nineties, Haim Saban and Shuki Levy took over from Sid and Marty Kroft as the king of kiddie TV. Though they were involved in the production of dozens of TV shows, it was Mighty Morphin Power Rangers that made them a force to be reckoned with. With that single series, they ...
