Product Description

Out of Order is the dark, witty story of the beauty and brutality of a long-term marriage as seen through the eyes of writer Mark Colm (Stoltz), who aspires to make art with his wife, Lorna (Huffman). Their latest project – a script for an A-list director (Bogdanovich) – is complicated by Lorna’s battle with clinical depression. She begins to self-medicate with Steven (Macy), a washed-up producer. Mark has always remained faithful to Lorna despite a wandering eye and blatant come-ons from a school mom, Annie (Bateman). He finds himself becoming obsessed with sexy soccer mom Danni (Dickens). Wanting to be a good man, but finding himself longing to stray, Mark realizes that he is guilty of the crime of being human.

Customer Reviews

Write Showtime
I agree with the other reviewers who are disappointed that this DVD only contains the pilot episode. I truly enjoyed this series and was looking forward to season two. I am still stunned that this only lasted for one season. Especially with how it ended...

All that aside, my suggestion is to go to www.sho.com and ask them to do one or both of the following: a) release the entire first season on DVD, and/or b) re-air the entire first season so that we can record it.

Surely that can at least do (b) rather than show something like C.H.O.M.P.S. or Bikini Summer 3.

Don't blame Showtime
The two reviews before mine say that Out of Order was one of the best shows on tv but complain that only the pilot episode is on the dvd. The reason for this has nothing to do with Showtime being greedy. The pilot is also owned by Hallmark, the other episodes are not. Hallmark has a distribution deal with a large video chain (rhymes with RockLuster), so it had to be done this way. If this DVD does well the remaining episodes will follow. This pilot received rave reviews (and made the NY Times list of Best 10 programs of 2003) and should not be penalized because only the pilot is available (so far.) The pilot stands alone and is awesome. Check it out.

great show - why just the movie??
If you noticed ALL the reviews are good but people are giving lower stars because all the shows are not on the DVD. Write Showtime and complain, don't lower the star rating of the actual movie because of it. I loved this series and Dead Like Me. Neither one was ever given a chance. If HBO ran either one of these two, they would be major hits!!
