You just can't go wrong
The title scared me. I have loved MJ Fox since Family Ties and, this show does not disappoint. However, if I wanted to watch a few select episodes over and over, I would just settle to watch them in syndication. I hate to say it, but it seems like Fox is "inserted" in the production of this DVD. I would MUCH rather buy them all in order and choose which ones I want to watch. I hope they issue all the episodes in some kind of "make up" DVD. On a positive note, Fox picked some good episodes and it beats waiting 4 years to see the best of 4 seasons.
As stated above, you just can't go wrong with this show. It all comes together. It's not hard to get a bunch of great actors, and a bunch of great writers, and the end product is a bunch of crud. It is rare to bring a show together that is as consistently funny as this one.
Thank for reading
Spin it
Well the good news is Spin City is finally on DVD; The bad news is unlike other sitcom and drama that release complete seasons, DreamWorks has decided something differently: They have asked Mike to choose his favorite episodes from season 1 to season 4, and split it into two volume release which consist of 4 DVDs.
I love Spin City on DVD. However I want EVERY single episode from the Season. I know this is some typical marketing strategy: if this work, they can produce more DVD in similar strategy and at last they will also release the complete season box set. As the fan you will get them all. And on the other hands, this kind of box set which features highlights episodes and prominent guest star appearances provide a safety net in sales for DreamWorks, people it consist some best of the best work and may give a shot to the box set; And if it fail, they can simply stop continue future DVD on Spin City. (Which is something I don't want to happen, but still in this situation they have released some of the best work in the show)
Anyway, it's good if like Spin City and love Michael.
Great series, but where are the other episodes??
I'd like to back up the other reviews in here and say that I just LOVE the Spin City series, and it's great to have some dvd releases of it.
But I can't imagine, in my wildest dreams, why it's been decided to only release a few select episodes!?!
Bring out the complete seasons!!! (please *lol)
