Movie Reviews of SCTV, Volume 2 (5 Disc Set)Movie Review: 3CP1, Zontar, I'm Taking My Own Head -- brilliant! Summary: 5 Stars
Some of the funniest, brilliantly conceived wrap-around sketches I remember -- the entire concept of CCCP1, Russian television at its worst, invading the Melonville airwaves -- and then Guy Caballero sending Dr. Tongue and Woody Tobias, Jr. into space to escort Red Rooster -- shades of Dr. Strangelove -- brilliant concept, laugh out loud lunacy.
The Godfather episode had some incredible moments, layer upon layer of homage and parody, brilliant impersonations, and, yes, laugh-out-loud funny.
The moment in Zontar when Guy Caballero checks the Intergalactic Almanac -- silly, insane, hilarious. Another must have!
Movie Review: " Is this heaven? No, It's Mellonville." Summary: 5 Stars
I still remember how crushed I was when NBC cancelled SCTV in the summer of 1983 to replace it with Friday Night Videos. Now I feel like im in heaven since Shout factory has released these past two volumes on DVD. This volume has some of the best episodes of the series and a couple of my favorites."CCCP1" " The Godfather" "Staff Christmas Party" I am really looking forward to the next volume release The remaining 21 episodes from NBC are fantastic!!! Martin Short joins the cast,and "The Days OF The Week" sketches are in my opinion the best work on SCTV.
Movie Review: The Peak Summary: 5 Stars
I wrote a review for Volume One of SCTV and gave it five stars since I really loved the show and missed seeing it all these years later.
But I think Volume Two is where the show really hit its peak. My favorites were always the "Godfather" parody and Russkie take-over of American TV airspace.
I understand a Volume Three is on its way this coming winter, so who knows: I might be repeating myself by saying, Can we have more than five stars to review stuff?
Movie Review: Great Season, I Love This Show! Summary: 5 Stars
Well you've seen all the other reviews, here's my take. The material is awesome! The commentary with Martin and O'Hare is ridiculous, they were clearly drunk and often incoherent not relating to the show as it was playing, very annoying even though I still love to watch them so much. The commentary with Thomas and the writers was awesome, they discussed the actual episode and it was great. Great season, if you can afford the price get it!
Movie Review: The Best of the Best! Summary: 5 Stars
SCTV was the best of the best, without a doubt. Never has so much talent been rolled up into one show. The earlier stuff was the best. Got a little weak as time went on (Martin Short era), but still worth every penny on every set that comes out. I would give more stars, if possible. So glad they got through all the legal stuff to finally release these classics. Welcome back!
