Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Complete Series

Max SchindlerNew DVD release, , , ,
Highly Recommended The Show:In today's installment of you are old, did you know that the then-UPN show Buffy the Vampire Slayer quietly celebrated its 20th anniversary this year. Yes, it's 20 years old. Inspired by the 1992 film, the show was received with initial adoration and better than expected critical praise, and exploded into a show that helped dwarf its cinematic older sister with humor and romance sort of in the same vein as the film, but bringing larger themes and conflicts for its characters into larger light, one or two of them being notable historically. With this time marker…

Green Acres: The Complete Series

Max SchindlerNew DVD release, , ,
DVD Talk Collector Series The Dick Van Dyke Show is the best American sitcom of the 1960s, but Green Acres is by all odds the funniest. Somewhat unfortunately lumped in with CBS's other, lesser rural comedies of the time, notably The Beverly Hillbillies and Petticoat Junction, from which it was spun off, Green Acres is most definitely not the show it initially appears to be. The basic premise, wealthy New Yorkers move to a ramshackle farmhouse, was the inverse of Beverly Hillbillies, a one-joke sitcom run into the ground by the end of its first season, while also springing from…

Ned and Stacey: The Complete Series

Max SchindlerNew DVD release, , ,
Highly Recommended The Show: The 1995-97 sitcom Ned and Stacey has long had a reputation as a funny and smart show that deserved a larger audience than it ever attracted. The series stars a post-Wings Thomas Haden Church and a pre-Will & Grace Debra Messing in the title roles, and it was created by Michael J. Weithorn before he teamed up with Ned and Stacey writer David Litt to create the syndication staple The King of Queens</em...Read the entire review

Just Shoot Me!: The Complete Series

Max SchindlerNew DVD release, ,
Rent It The Series:It's always a gamble to revisit some of your favorite shows from decades ago, since it might shock you with not only how dated they have become, but how much your taste has grown since. This is doubly the case with sit-coms. Humor is very subjective and dependant on the culture within the time period it exposes. What you once thought to be funny might not be the case a couple of decades later. My guess is that those who were genuinely tickled by The Brady Bunch in the 70s might have had trouble arguing its relevance…

Cinematic Titanic: The Complete Collection

Max SchindlerNew DVD release, , ,
Recommended Between the cancellation of the original show in 1999 and the Kickstarter for its revival in 2015, there have been three major attempts to revive the format of "Mystery Science Theater 3000" for a new generation, all by people who worked on the original program. Two of them, one successful and one unsuccessful, feature the team of Michael J. Nelson, Kevin Murphy, and Bill Corbett (arguably the "second generation" cast, even though Murphy voiced Servo in all of the "official" episodes of the original series). The successful iteration is Rifftrax, which uses .mp3 files to allow the team to…
