Customer Reviews

It's a home run for drama at its best!
1977...a tumultuous year in New York City. A blackout...the search for Son of Sam..a race for Mayor...and the ups and downs of the New York Yankees. This six hour miniseries hits a home run for the story behind the scenes of that season from perspective of George Steinbrenner, Billy Martin, Reggie Jackson and the players. I never did get a chance to see this on ESPN in the summer of 2007 but I now have the DVD set. It was the best six hours I have spent watching this miniseries. First rate drama. If you enjoy the Yankees and or baseball, then don't miss this!!!

Yankee history
Great movie about the other side of baseball most fans dont' know or think about. Great story of a baseball dynasty. Ball players from that era, we will most likly never see again. And a great manager, Billy Martin. Best part for me: LOU PINIELLA!

Lou has become one of the greatest minds and deans of the sport. Cub fans are greatful to have him as our manager.

i love this series
I love this series. My only disappointment is there is not "play ALL" button. So I have to press play for every episode. I like to sit and watch lots of tv episodes at once while I am working on time consuming projects that doesn't make it easy for my dirty hands to touch my laptop or remote (like artwork and cooking. etc). Why don't all DVDS have a play all mode!?
