 | | 3. Burn Notice-Season 2 new! | | | Starring: Bruce Campbell Gabrielle Anwar | | Format: DVD Release Date: 6/16/2009 |  | Burn Notice, Season Two - DVD Review By: Fitz - Blogcritics.org Reviews Published on: 6/22/2009 9:04 AM | | Imagine if you will a television series with the dry wit of House, the improvised gadgetry of MacGyver, and the spy games of the Bourne Identity. Then you might have an idea of what Burn Notice is like before you watch it. I have to admit when season one started airing on the USA Network, I avoided it, thinking it would be formulaic and boring. But I caught myself watching when season two began airing last summer. And then it was too late for me. I'd been ensnared by the witty dialog, clever contraptions, and a great pairing of writers and actors. At that point I went to Hulu and began watching all the episodes I'd missed from season one. And then I made sure I caught all of season two when it aired. I was hooked. read the full review | |

 | | 14. Lost (Complete First Season) | | | Starring: Terry O'Quinn Dominic Monaghan Director: Jeffrey Abrams | | Format: DVD Release Date: 4/28/2009 | User Rating: 5 |  | Lost: Season One - DVD Review By: Joel Meares - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 6/28/2009 1:44 AM | |
Agatha Christie wrote something in excess of 80 novels. Christie was a practiced and a brilliant mystery taleteller, a commercial writer who exploited her full and total grasp of the mystery genre to massive popular success. Each plot was intricately realized, no facet of the mystery introduced that could not be resolved. Such is the enjoyment of good mysteries: a confidence that although clues and complications have confused us for now, in the end the equation will make sense. We should not know the ending, but it should not be impossible to work out. Lost, 2004s hit about a group of plane-wreck survivors milling about on a mysterious island, crashes and burns on its inability to handle the genre Christie had mastered. read the full review | |

 | | 28. Burn Notice-Season 2 (Blu-ray) new! | | | Starring: Gabrielle Anwar Jeffrey Donovan | | Format: Blu-Ray DVD Release Date: 6/16/2009 |  | Burn Notice - Season Two - Blu-Ray DVD Review By: Dusty Somers - Blogcritics.org Reviews Published on: 6/25/2009 12:16 PM | | Burn Notice, typically described as a comedy-thriller, is less jocular, but more entertaining than you might expect. The second season of the USA Network series is solid summer fare, delving into the tired fictional world of spies and espionage with a fairly fresh approach that keeps the series extremely watchable as it moves at a fast pace. Jeffrey Donovan (Changeling) stars as former government operative Michael Westen. Westen’s been issued a burn notice, and dumped in Miami, leaving him without money or an identity. He’s forced to rely on any friendly figures he can find — ex-girlfriend Fiona (Gabrielle Anwar, The Tudors), FBI informant Sam (Bruce Campbell, My Name is Bruce) and his chain-smoking, clingy mother, Madeline (Sharon Gless, Queer as Folk). read the full review | |

 | | 46. Comedy Central Roast of Bob Saget | | | Starring: Bob Saget Jeffrey Ross | | Format: DVD Release Date: 12/30/2008 |  | Comedy Central Roast of Bob Saget - DVD Review By: The Masked Movie Snobs - Blogcritics.org Reviews Published on: 12/30/2008 3:50 PM | | Bob Saget is probably best known for his roles on the family-oriented programs Full House and America’s Funniest Home Videos. In other words, he’s best known for being incredibly bland and not particularly funny. Outside of television, Bob Saget is known for his blue stand-up comedy routine, which is particularly funny because it is at such odds with his public persona. It is this public persona that is so viciously attacked by the roasters on this DVD, including Gilbert Gottfried, Brian Poesehn, Cloris Leachman, Jeffery Ross, Norm MacDonald, and Full House co-star John Stamos. read the full review | |
