"Applegate is charming, adorable and funny." Tim Goodman, San Francisco Chronicle
Editor's Note
Samantha Newly (Christina Applegate) may have survived a hit-and-run car accident, but her memories weren't so lucky. The young executive awakens from a coma to find that she can't remember a thing about her own life. SAMANTHA WHO?, a quick-witted sitcom that garnered critical acclaim in its freshman season, follows Sam as she begins to uncover unsavory truths about the girl she used to be; when she reacquaints with friends and family, Sam learns that she was an alcoholic, a cheater, a liar, and an ungrateful daughter. With a clear picture of who she was, Sam begins to view her amnesia as a new lease on life, and commits herself to being a better human being. The first season finds Samantha reuniting with her alienated parents, Regina (Jean Smart, 24) and Howard (Kevin Dunn, TRANSFORMERS), her party-girl best friend Andrea (Jennifer Esposito), and Dena (Melissa McCarthy, GILMORE GIRLS), an old acquaintance pretending to be one of Sam's closest pals. Every episode from the initial season is included in this volume, along with a behind the scenes tour with Golden Globe nominee Applegate.
