BATMAN BEYOND: THE COMPLETE FIRST SEASON (reviewed by Jonathan Weiss,

to the Batman legacy? Don't touch that Bat-keypad because you're about
to find out."

INSPECTOR GADGET: THE ORIGINAL SERIES (reviewed by Brett Cullum, overall
score 83/100):
"Just be warned: one pass at the menu with the theme song, and it'll be
stuck in your head for weeks on end. 'Doot doot doot Inspector Gadget!
Dootly Dootly Doo -- ooo ooo!'"

MONTY PYTHON'S FLYING CIRCUS: TERRY GILLIAM'S PERSONAL BEST (reviewed by
Ryan Keefer, overall score 71/100):
"Over the course of the disc, Gilliam (to his credit) seemed to put in a
concerted effort to make this enjoyable, rather than a tired 'Greatest
Hits' reunion tour of some old standards. The fact of the matter remains
that this still is a collection of old standards."

TALES FROM THE CRYPT: THE COMPLETE THIRD SEASON (reviewed by Cynthia
Boris, overall score 85/100):
"It was only supposed to be thirteen episodes, a lark of a show to pay
homage to the classic EC Comic of the same name. It turned into seven
seasons, several movies, and a showcase for some of the biggest names in
Hollywood."

TV FAVORITES: NIGHT COURT (reviewed by Patrick Naugle, overall
score 88/100):
"It's a shame that they don't make shows like Night Court anymore.
Today's sitcoms are often geared towards kids, and as such feature
young, bland, interchangeable actors."

VIP: THE COMPLETE FIRST SEASON (reviewed by Brett Cullum, overall
score 83/100):
" She's the Marilyn Monroe of our times -- a big breasted, good natured,
larger than life persona whose private life makes more headlines than
anything she does on screen. "

THE YOUNG RIDERS: THE COMPLETE FIRST SEASON (reviewed by David Johnson,
overall score 88/100):
"The Young Riders is a really good show, not quite great, but
representative of what an entertaining 45 minutes of network television
could be like."
