BAA BAA BLACK SHEEP: VOLUME 1 (reviewed by Maurice Cobbs, overall
score 88/100):
"If TV were ever again to reach the dizzying levels of testosterone
typified by any given episode of Baa Baa Black Sheep, the heads of
metrosexuals across the country would summarily explode."

THE DUKES OF HAZZARD: THE COMPLETE FOURTH SEASON (reviewed by Paul
Corupe, overall score 85/100):
"The crashes are still spectacular, the Dukes still mischievous and the
hot pants still short. However, one thing that becomes clear this
season, as the series approaches the 100-episode mark, is the growing
redundancy of the show."

FARSCAPE: SEASON 2, COLLECTION 1 (STARBURST EDITION) (reviewed by Jeff
Andreasen, overall score 90/100):
"But the best thing about Farscape in general and these episodes in
particular is that there are consequences to the characters' actions,
consequences that reverberate in later episodes and later seasons."

PROFIT: THE COMPLETE SERIES (reviewed by Brett Cullum, overall
score 95/100):
"Profit: The Complete Series is nine hours of watching sharks feeding on
other sharks. Where American Psycho let Patrick Batman keep his
murderous rage completely out of the office, Profit makes the psychosis
an asset to the character's work life. The show was easily six or seven
years ahead of its time."

SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE: THE BEST OF GILDA RADNER (reviewed by Rob
Lineberger, overall score 80/100):
"Radner is most known for her unquenchable reservoir of energy and her
willingness to exploit it. At her best, Gilda turns these outbursts into
offbeat shenanigans that may never be matched. Few comedians would
continue to slam themselves against closed doors with broken ribs."

SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE: THE FIRST FIVE YEARS (reviewed by Ryan Keefer,
overall score 86/100):
"Given the rather bland nature of the interviews in Live From New York,
the 'bonus' doc on the disc, entitled The First Five Years...The Rest of
the Story, may actually be the better presentation. In it, the crew
discusses some of the extracurricular activity and digs a little more of
the dirt that occurred on the shows."

THE WUBBULOUS WORLD OF DR. SEUSS: THE CAT, THE GINK, AND OTHER FURRY
FRIENDS (reviewed by Eric Profancik, overall score 80/100):
"Unlike other, more famous iterations of Theodor Geisel's books, this
show is not a cartoon but, being from Henson, a puppet show. The
characters look great, of course, and children will find them all cuddly
and cute."
