Movie Reviews of The Mad About You Collection
Movie Review: 5 Stars for the show; Hoping for great DVD quality/extras
Summary: 5 Stars
I am excited to finally see more Mad About You coming out on dvd! I am even more pleased to hear that Helen Hunt & Paul Reiser took part in putting this together. Hopefully there will be at least a couple of episode commentaries & other good Paul/Helen extras.
Since Seasons 1 & 2 are already out on DVD, I wish they would have chosen not to include 4 episodes from those seasons, although they choices they made (particularly "Met Someone") were good ones for those who don't have those DVDs. In general, the episode selection was good. I am pleased they included two of my all-time favorites, the Thanksgiving classic "Giblets for Murray" and the shot in real time outside of the crying baby's room episode "The Conversation."
However, many of my favorites didn't make the cut. Some examples:
* Mad About You, Parts 1&2 (the wedding episode)
* Purseona (Lisa & Jamie accidentily switch purses, & personalities)
* Two Tickets to Paradise (Paul & Jamie vacation & tell lies to strangers about who they really are)
* My Boyfriend's Back (Jamie's comic book writer ex makes her "Queen Talon")
* Ovulation Day (quite possibly the funniest Mad About You episode, where Paul's sister Debbie tells her family that she's gay); they chose "Yoko Said" over this?
* Get Back (Jamie's back goes out during sex on the floor of their apt.; Paul is quite proud of this)
Hopefully Sony will continue releasing full season sets (even better if they include commentaries/extras) after this collection so we can get some of these great episodes on DVD, especially the Mad About You at its peak Season 3...
