Spin City: Season 1
(
Disc 2
)
Spin City is a smart, sophisticated ABC sitcom about the behind-the-scenes workings of City Hall in the biggest city in America. Workaholic Mike Flaherty (Michael J. Fox) is the Deputy Mayor of New York City, serving as Mayor Randall Winston's (Barry Bostwick, Rocky Horror Picture Show) key strategist and much-needed handler.
Mike runs the city with the help of his oddball staff: an anxious and insecure press secretary (Richard Kind, Mad About You); a sexist, boorish chief of staff (Alan Ruck, Ferris Bueller's Day Off); an impeccably groomed gay activist running minority affairs (Michael Boatman, Arliss); a sharp and efficient, man-crazy accountant (Connie Britton, Friday Night Lights); and an idealistic young speechwriter (Alexander Chaplin). Like Mike, they are all professionally capable but personally challenged.
Spin City was an immediate hit when it debuted in 1996. The series reunited Fox with Family Ties executive producer and creator Gary David Goldberg and proved that the magic of their creative partnership was enduring.
Episodes:
7. Grand Illusion
8. The High and the Mighty
9. Meet Tommy Dugan
10. The Competition
11. Dog Day Afternoon
12. Criss Cross
My Thoughts:
Once again remembering just how much I enjoyed this sitcom. This disc has a lot of really good episodes. I enjoyed the whole disc. There is also a few great guest stars/Familiar faces on this disc. First we have George Wendt in
The High and the Mighty
... then we have Woody Harrelson in
Meet Tommy Dogan
. And finally in
The Compitition
(a Thanksgiving episode) we have the always lovely Jennifer Garner (Alias).

Charmed: Season 2
(
Disc 1
)
The Halliwell sisters are back... and they've got "the power of three"! Charmed: The Complete Second Season casts a spell of excitement, adventure and fun as Prue (Shannen Doherty), Piper (Holly Marie Combs) and Phoebe (Alyssa Milano) continue their journey as modern-day witches.
From the intense season opener, when the trio battles an old foe who attempts to render then powerless, to the suspense-filled, and at times very humorous season finale, these beauitiful heroines will have you wish for more. Their foes are stronger, Their powers are growing, and the suypernatural has even more unique ways of disrupting their drama-filled personal lives just when to het it together. Each exciting episode of Charmed: The Complete Second Season continues to work magic that made this critically acclaimed audiencefavorite a force to be reckoned with.
Episodes:
1. Witch Trial
2. Morality Bites
3. The Painted World
4. The Devil's Music
My thoughts:
I still find myself in the mood to watch Charmed... so I started the second season. The first 2 episodes on the disc is good... but the last 2 episodes on this one is I am less then happy with. Never been much of a fan of either. I would say my favorite episode on this disc would have to be
Morality Bites
where the sisters go into the future to stop Phoebe from being burned at the stake.

Smallville: Season 7
(
Disc 3
)
There are two CLARK KENTs. One is the young man whose life in a tiny Kansas town sets him on destiny's path. The other is a BIZARRO show shares Clark's DNA but not his values. Only one of them can survive.
SUPERMAN mythology grows deeper and more powerful in an event-packed season that includes the arrival of Clark's cousin KARA/SUPERGIRL. Keep a low profile and master your powers, Clark says. Kara has other ideas. Plus: LANA LANG might prefer Bizarro to the real deal. LOIS LANE makes a career leap. CHLOE SULLIVAN finds that balancing a meteor power with a personal life isn't easy. And LEX LUTHOR's power-lust has a new fixation – Kara. New characters and complications. New secrets and lore. New thrills and special effects. Power up to Season 7!
Episodes:
9. Gemini
10. Persona
11. Siren
12. Fracture
My Thoughts:
I decided to watch four more episodes of
Smallville
today. The episodes on this disc is all good... but I would have to say my favorite episode of the disc would have to be
Siren
... where we meet the Black Canary... which was played by Alaina Huffman who played Maureen Bowers on the short-lived series Painkiller Jane.

My thoughts:
Finished another disc of Charmed. Still enjoying watching these old episodes. Though I may slow down a bit to watch Start Trek: The Next Generation more... this way I can remind myself and be prepared for Season 3 when it comes. These were all strong episodes... but none that I would actually call favorites.

A Haunting: Season 3
(
Disc 1
)
New Dominion Picture's A Haunting: Season 3, takes you inside ten real-life horror stories that originally aired on the Discovery Channel. Each eerie one-hour episode features eyewitness accounts and cinematic re-inactments of some of the most spine-tingling, ghostly hauntings ever recorded. Even the most skeptical observer will be shocked and intrigued by these spellbinding tales
Visit the centuries-old pub in northern England, haunted by a gruesome past, the dream house that turns into a nightmare, and the famously creepy haunting in Ireland. This three DVD set of the third season of A Haunting explores these and many other unexplainable, creepy and macabre tales of the paranormal. By the end of each amazing story, you will experience a lingering sense that life and death are much stranger then you could have possibly imagined!
Episodes:
1. Fear House
2. The Attic
3. Hidden Terror
My Thoughts:
I always enjoyed these "true" stories of hauntings. This is a series I discovered on DVD after my daughter gave me the season 1 & 2 set for Father's Day last year. This was a very strong start to the season. I enjoyed all 3 episodes on this disc. I especially enjoyed both
The Attic
and
Hidden Terror
. I so enjoyed this disc... I can't wait to watch some more of this series.

My Thoughts:
I just spent the better part of the last week watching every episode of season 2. And now that I finished it I am all ready to watch season 3 when it arrives. I really enjoyed this season... though I was sorry to see Dr. Crusher was not in this season. Though I do see from the cast of season 3 set that she returns. The doctor in this season was fine... but she was no replacement for Dr. Crusher. I had a lot of fun rewatching these episodes... and now looking forward to watching some new (to me) episodes.

Four more episodes of one of my all time favorite series. I think my favorite episode on this disc would have to be
Pardon My Past
and episode that revolves around Phoebe... where she must go back to a past life to save herself from a curse.

ER: Season 1
(
Disc 1
I first wrote 'ER' back in 1974 as a record of my experiernces as a medical student in a hospital emergency room. But it was not until the fall of 1994, 20 years later, that these stories appeared as a new television series. That must surely be the longest creative gestation in modern television, but it was worth it. Audiences found the show to be fast-paced, fresh and real, and it drew a loyal following from it's very first episode. But if past was remarkable, the future was even more so: none of us in those early days of 'ER' could have anticipated it's long and remarkable run as one of the best and most popular television shows in the history of the medium. From it's early days to the the exciting present, it's been one long thrill for me, and I think for audiences as well. Enjoy!
Micheal Crichton, June 2003
My Thoughts:
This first disc contains the first 7 episodes of the series. Since I ordered season 4 I thought I would watch a handful of episodes to kinda get me in the mood of the series for when it gets here. ER really is a pretty good medical drama. I enjoyed all the episodes.

The Night Stalker: The Complete Series
(Eps. 1-3)
Carl Kolchak returns in a new series of spine-tingling adventures. Produced by the X-Files' Frank Spotnitz and based on the original '70s suspense drama, Night Stalker updates the chilling classic in a startling new way. "There's something stylishly scary at work here," says The New York Times.
Caught up in an obsessive hunt for his own wife's murderer, Kolchak (Stuart Townsend) discovers that his imagination is no match for the evil that truly lurks in the dark. Paired with skeptic Perri Reed (Gabrielle Union), television's favorite crime reporter will stop at nothing to uncover the supernatural side of the night.
Featuring four episodes never seen on TV that complete the series and a host of exclusive bonus material, this 2-disc DVD set is so good it's scary.
Episodes:
1. Pilot
2. The Five People You Meet In Hell
3. Three
My Thoughts:
Felt like a taste of this series. I really liked this show... it is a shame it was canceled so soon. I think I even prefer it over the original series (Kolchak: The Night Stalker)... but that could be because I seen this series first. As it sometimes happens with me... the first one I see is the one I like better.

Episodes:
17. Sleeper
18. Apocalypse
19. Quest
20. Arctic
My Thoughts:
I put off watching the last disc of this set. Mainly because I never cared for the whole Veritas arc in this season. So the final 3rd of the season really wasn't up to par with the rest of the series. That being said... I am still enjoying the series enough to keep watching it. The new season has been fair... though I am not completely happy with it. And the announcement that there will be a season nine... while I believe I will give it a chance... I think this series should have ended a couple seasons back. He should be Superman already!

Dracula: The Series: Vol. 1
(
Eps. 1-4
)
For centuries he has ruled the night, inspiring dozens of plays, scores of movies and millions of nightmares. His enduring legend is known and feared everywhere. Now, Dracula seeks global domination as Alexander Lucard, international billionaire power broker, who is relentlessly building a hi-tech network of white-collar vampires. Two young American brothers know his secret (and his weaknesses!) as they join their uncle – a lifelong vampire chaser – to follow the trail across Europe and the U.S. in a desperate race to expose Lucard and his undead army of corporate vampires. The hunters become the prey as Lucard seeks to eliminate their threat to his eternal conquest.
Episodes:
1. Children of the Night
2. Double Cross
3. Get a Job
4. The Boffin
My Thoughts:
This is a show that used to air Saturday mornings... a kid friendly Dracula series. It is an above average series... I have seen better but it is a series that both Brittany and myself enjoy. The worst thing about it had to be the theme music to the series. Even Brittany couldn't stand it. And she loves most all music. See what I mean from the youtube clip below. For those of you that enjoy the Showtime series
The L Word
... there is a familiar face here... a young Mia Kirshner (Jenny Schecter on
The L Word
).
