I agree it is not as good as the others, because (as has been mentioned) most of the characters are not as strong as previous seasons.
This storyline also contains the most implausable, ridiculous plotline of all the seasons. 24 has always had plotlines which borderline on unbelievable but we let them off because the show is that good. I think we should also let them off here too because the season is great, however there is just too much "oh come off it!!" about this one storyline that you never really forget how silly this is.
So we have weaker characters (still strong nevertheless) and an unbelievable plot aspect but apart from that we have a classic 24 with ... Read More:

This is absolutely epic, i cant believe i missed this when it was first shown. Undoubtedly one of the best DVD TV series i have seen, it had me gripped from start to finish, excellent acting, great twisting plot, attractive sexy blonde Kim Bauer and a lot of lies and betrayal. Once you get into it you find your emotions all over the place, i was almost shouting at the TV when they were escaping getting shot at "Comon!! run!" This is a must see. Jack Bauer you are the man.
This is the most explosive first episode of any series, totally shocking start and you are gripped after the first 5 minutes.
Jack is really at odds with the government in this one and once again he goes through absolute hell. The end is also just as shocking as the start.
To be honest i expected the series to slide a bit after the monumental quality of the first 4 but it didn't, this season is spectacular.

24 came back and this time we have a bigger threat, a bigger bad guy and even bigger episodes.
I love this season, i always get extra excited when i put the first disc in. The writers always think of fantastic new moments to put in their series and this has loads.
As usual you need to overlook the fact that all the big events happen in the hour and that everywhere is within 10 minutes of everywhere but look past that and you will have an amazing time.
If you thought that 3 was not as good as the first two then rest assured that this definately is.

This is a different kind of season to the first with some absolutely brilliant moments.
If you can overlook the fact (something you always have to with 24) that all big events happen on the hour then you will love the way each episode leaves you begging to watch more. Classic episodes all the way through.
Again there are twists and turns in this series too, if season 1 didn't make you trust noone then this one surely will.

For some reason this is probably my least favourite season but nevertheless it is still absolutely fantastic. There are some epic moments and episodes here that i would consider my absolute favourites but something just relegates it below the others, i don't know what it is, maybe the bad guy isn't up scratch, either way saying this is my least favourite is hardly an insult.
Top stuff and Jacks rawest ever moment is in this series.

Legally Blonde 2 suffered from the quality of Legally Blonde 1 being so high.The first film had a believable storyline and introduced us to Elle and her quirky friends and mannerisms and showed us a developing and blossoming young woman we could sympathise with.The sequel just assumes we know what Elle is like already and takes it for granted the viewer will accept and understand the way she is.The jokes in Legally Blonde 2 weren't as good as in the first film either.I didn't expect this follow-up to be all that good because it was always going to be difficult to
continue to develop Elle's character.This is a film to watch if you just want to relax and have got some time to kill.Otherwise go out to that restaurant,pub,club or whatever instead!

Firewall is probably Harrison Ford's worst film, and he has made some excellent movies in the past, like Frantic, The Indiana Jones series, The Fugitive and many more, but this sadly isn't one. It's not Harrison that's the bad thing; a combination of annoying bad guys and bad plot make this rather cringe worthy. The worst thing about it all is the bad guys, they really are just poor beyond belief. I'm surprised Jack Stanfield didn't punch this guy!
The gist is quite simple: some guys come and kidnap (well so called) and try to get Jack to get them inside his bank and make off with a few million in their Cayman Island accounts.
There's just so much that's not good about this movie: it's slow, there's not much action for an intense thriller with kidnapping ... Read More:

I agree with other reviewers: this collection is by no means the best of Larry Sanders, but it's still way ahead of most sitcoms. I can't recall which were my favourites, but one or two on this DVD were eye-wateringly funny, whilst the others were good and a nice reminder of a series I discovered by chance and grew to love very quickly. Sound quality poor but just turn the volume up....and don't miss those intros!
