Movie Reviews of Will & Grace - Season Five
Movie Review: Disappointed
Summary: 1 Stars
I have waited a year for this release, and was very upset to find out, as so many have already mentioned, that the episodes are not complete. At first I thought I was crazy, but then my favorite line (in the Madonna episode) was completely missing (where Jack says "as a gay man, I'm oddly attracted to you" and Madonna/Liz says "I know, I get that a lot"). What was Lion's Gate thinking? I think they really need to re-release the season, and allow people (who purchased this rip-off) free exchanges.Movie Review: These are shortened, syndicated episodes...not the originals!
Summary: 1 Stars
These are syndicated versions with so many great scenes deleted! I bought this thinking they were original episodes and they're not. The scene with Debbie Harry has been deleted. The scene when Stan's sister sang at his funeral is gone. A key scene from "May Divorce Be With You" was eliminated. This is a rip off and you might as well just watch the syndicated versions on rerun. They could skip some of the extras if they'd just give us the original episodes. Very disappointed!Movie Review: Great season, but episodes are not complete
Summary: 4 Stars
This is one of the best Will & Grace seasons with some of my favorite episodes. Imagine my surprise when I discovered the episodes on the dvd are the edited versions from synidication and not the original aired versions.
I was looking forward to one of my favorite lines ever...when everyone meets Dr. Morty (Nicolette Sheridan) and are taken aback by her looks and Rosario says "What is she, a doctor of foxology?" But nope...not here. I was pretty annoyed. Only an extra 10 seconds yet cut. Makes NO sense and call me anal, but if I'm not gonna get the original episodes...it should be labeled.
Movie Review: A spotty season, but the last great season of this show.
Summary: 4 Stars
"Will & Grace" was a landmark comedy and featured richly developed characters and wonderful relationships. Season Five of the series was a bit patchy and you can start to see the foundation of what made this show great start to crack. There are some brilliant episodes here so this is not a season to miss. Unfortunately, the characters started to become parodies of themselves towards the end of the season. I loved this show and it saddened me to see its painful decline. Will got insufferably neurotic. Grace had no energy and seemed disinterested. Karen became a shrill buffoon and Jack became constantly hammy. The worst part of this was that they all lost the spark that made their relationships so fun and genuine.
Thankfully, the episodes in this season didn't suffer from those ills. The writing still seemed fresh and the characters were still engaging. I recently picked up the series finale on DVD as season five is the last full season I'm willing to spend my hard-earneds on.
Movie Review: Will and Grace Season 5!!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this box set today and was so excited that this was finally the season when Grace gets married! It's a great season and worth owning for any Will and Grace fan!
