. Bones: Season One
City Travel Guides > DVD > DVD
from: Twentieth Century Fox Home Ent
November 28, 2006
Bones is a dark and amusing drama series, inspired by real-life forensic anthropologist and novelist Kathy Reichs. Forensic anthropologist Dr. Temperence Brennan, who works at the Jeffersonian Institution and writes novels as a sideline, has an uncanny ability to read clues left behind in a victim's bones.
Consequently, law enforcement calls her in to assist with murder investigations when the remains are so badly decomposed, burned, or destroyed that the standard identification methods are useless.
Brennan's equally brilliant colleagues at the Jeffersonian's Medico-Legal Lab include earthy and bawdy Angela Montenegro, who's created a unique way to render an original crime scene in a three-dimensional computer image; ... Read More:

. Jeff Dunham: Arguing With Myself
City Travel Guides > DVD > DVD
starring: Jeff Dunham
May 30, 2006
Jeff Dunham is a masterful comedian. He has recognized that his cast of characters can get away with saying things that no flesh and blood person could, without being truly offensive. Each character is so strong and individual that they don't miss a beat even when things go wrong. It is both delightful and awe-inspiring to see a comedian who is so good that he can stand on the stage doing nothing for a minute at a time and still have the audience in stitches. I'm glad I bought this DVD for my collection, because I know I'm going to be playing it many, many times!

. Futurama: The Beast with a Billion Backs
City Travel Guides > DVD > DVD
starring: Dan Castellaneta, David Cross, Maurice LaMarche, Tress MacNeille, Katey Sagaldirected by: Peter Avanzino
June 24, 2008
The first reviewer was right; not a lot of bang for the buck. It's more of a sappy love story the further the plot progresses. Not to mention that the DVD itself comes in a cardboard case, rather than a traditional plastic one, allowing for the inevitable bends and creases due to standard delivery practices. As a lover of Futurama, I HAD to get this to add to my collection, but, in the future, I hope they try to focus more on the comedy.

. Battlestar Galactica: Season Three
City Travel Guides > DVD > DVD
from: Universal Studios
March 18, 2008
I was turned off by the number of actors smoking in this series, a bit of a warning to parents who care about their children's health. This is a science fiction series and smoking would and should be totally unnecessary. The very public lack of scruples on this subject by the producer of this show unfortunately makes it impossible for me to recommend this otherwise excellent series.
Letter to studio heads from 31 Attorneys General, May 1, 2007
Each time a member of the [film] industry releases another movie that depicts smoking, it does so with the full knowledge of the harm it will bring to children who watch it.
I think this says it all.

. Rome: The Complete Second Season
City Travel Guides > DVD > DVD
from: HBO Home Video
August 07, 2007
"Rome" represents one of the saddest misjudgments in video history. HBO assembled an incredible cast, built an amazing set, and started telling a story that could have held an audience for many years. Unfortunately, when the series was initially slow to draw fans, HBO decided to cut their losses, and started wrapping up in a hurry. The great loves, hates, and political and moral issues that had begun to be developed were resolved in a couple of episodes. Then, about the time they offed Caesar, they realized that they had taken a potential huge hit and killed it as well.
The second season is a salvage job, still brilliant in terms of characterization, but with a feeling of getting the remaining plot lines concluded as quickly as possible. The ... Read More:

September 02, 2008
Good news: this title is being rereleased in September 2008! A truly apt title indeed.
We'll finally be be able to fill that annoying hole in the Fox Film Noir series on our shelves.
As I recall this is a very good title, in the upper-tier of films noirs, but not quite into the top-tier (like Woman in the Window, Double Indemnity or Night and the City). It's been quite some time since I saw it (on TvO Saturday Night I seem to dimly recall or perhaps PBS), but my usually reliable memory indicates this should be a most enjoyable re-viewing.
The last crop of Fox Film Noir was not the most substantial of the series (Black Widow is somewhat entertaining a times, but not really noir and rather slight). The 3 titles scheduled for early ... Read More:

October 10, 2006
There are regrettably no interviews with the cast or production team, no director's commentary, and no deleted/extended scenes, though since we've all been forced to endure the butchered Home Video version this as full as full can be version is in a sense full of them. There are no theatrical trailers or television spots. Image quality is good and one thing that's mentioned in the production report is just how painstaking the video/audio restoration really was and how VERY lucky they -- and we -- were to be able to find the original film master in England and then clean it up. Once again, and this is becoming a great joke in the film community, a US company picks up the distribution/restoration rights to a foreign country's film treasures and then releases ... Read More:
