Editor's Note
From the school of THE OFFICE and THIS IS SPINAL TAP comes this largely improvisational single-camera sitcom set in a tragically underused milieu that's ripe for hilarity--the small-town supermarket! Leslie (Eric Lehr) is a New York City businessman who's on the verge of going under when his father passes away, leaving the family business without an owner. Leslie, doing what he has to do, moves back home to make sure the Greens & Grains grocery store isn't bought out by its competitor, a daffy and inappropriate value mart manager named Amy Anderson (Jennifer Elise Cox, THE BRADY BUNCH MOVIE). Now in charge of an entire establishment of oddball supermarket employees, Leslie, who isn't exactly debonair himself, seems to land in a strange situation every week. But, despite the occasional exploitation of a Jesus-shaped stain for marketing purposes, harassment of customers, or subjection of his employees to rigorous reality-show-like challenges in a desperate attempt to find out who has to get fired, Leslie is a caring boss and it doesn't take long for the G & G crew to become a bizarre, oversized family. Each 22-minute episode of 10 ITEMS OR LESS has been edited down from roughly 30-plus hours of improvised dialogue. This set includes all 13 episodes from the series' first and second seasons.
