Released by: Universal. My Advice: Watch it on cable. They say dead men tell no tales. But Dr. Quincy (Klugman) is here to prove them wrong. Using forensic science, he gives the dead a voice. And by being pushy with witnesses and browbeating officials, he makes sure that voice is good and loud. Sometimes this drive for justice puts him in conflict his boss, Dr Astin (Ragin), Homicide detective Lt. Monahan (Walberg) and pretty much anybody else in his way. But with the help of his assistant Sam (Ito), Quincy is ready for the fight for truth, justice and…well, anyway, you get the point. Categorized as: Reviews and TV

Released by: Universal. My Advice: Fans should consider it, the rest shouldn't bother. This is the website, Needcoffee.com. The staff here is responsible for reviewing the thousands of DVDs that travel to our headquarters daily. Some of them are comedies, some of them are dramas. Some of them hail from the silver screen; some of them are from the small screen. Some are critically acclaimed masterpieces and some are fetid pieces of diarrheic shit. That’s where I come in. My name is ScottC and I carry an opinion. Categorized as: Reviews and TV

Released by: MGM My Advice: Sci-fi fans should own it Having suffered a few off-target seasons, Stargate SG-1 aimed to correct course with its move to the Sci-Fi Channel prior to the start of Season 6. However, rather than rushing around making changes immediately, the crew used that season to tidy up the loose ends that were left over, and move towards serious corrections for Season 7 at a steady pace that would maintain the narrative flow of the show. The writers waste no time getting things changed at the start of Season 7, though. Right out of the gate, we are reintroduced to Daniel Jackson (Shanks), a much-missed member of the cast whose departure from the show had outraged a healthy chunk of the show's loyal fanbase. The writers actually manage to bring back a character who had died and "ascended" without making it horrifically cheezy or unbelievable, too, so that's a bonus. Categorized as: Reviews and TV

Released by: Universal My Advice: Own it if you're a fan; rent if you need to catch up.  Law & Order is arguably one of the very best-loved series to grace the small screen. It's spawned a number of spinoffs and has logged so many screen hours that you literally can't turn on a television and not smack into an episode of some flavor of the franchise somewhere. This, the flagship show, as always, deals with a half and half approach. The first half you get the police trying to unravel a crime and then the D.A. office takes up the second half of the show to prosecute. Sound formulaic? It is. But the good news is that the acting, the writing and the pace make up for anything you might feel shaky about for the setup. Categorized as: Reviews and TV
