Movie Reviews of Wings - The Complete First and Second Seasons
Movie Review: Great Series
Summary: 5 Stars
Loved the series and the subplots it had in each episode. The epidode 'Plane 9 From Nantucket' was precious. I laughed my head off when they were in the plane and the passengers put on foil hats and had light bulbs in their mouths. Thanks to X-files for the inspiration.
Summary of Wings - The Complete First and Second Seasons
This sometimes touching and always funny 1990s sitcom stars Timothy Daly and Steven Weber as Joe and Brian Hackett two brothers trying to run a successful small airline on Nantucket while dealing with a lovable eccentric group of employees and friends (played by a stellar cast that includes Crystal Bernard Thomas Hayden Church and Tony Shaloub). The six episodes of the short first season and all 22 episodes of the second when the show really hit its stride are included here; memorable guest stars include George Wendt Megan Mullaly David Ogden Stiers and Maury Povich.System Requirements:Running Time 642 Mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre:?COMEDY Rating:?NR UPC:?097360472547 Manufacturer No:?047254A popular and well-regarded comedy that ran for eight seasons in the '90s, Wings was created by David Angell, Peter Casey, and David Lee, the team that worked together on Cheers and later created Frasier. Tim Daly and Steven Weber play two brothers, Joe and Brian Hackett, respectively, who parted ways many years ago when a woman left Joe to marry Brian. Joe, the straitlaced do-everything-right brother, is running Sandpiper Air, a small airline on the island of Nantucket that runs commuter flights to the New England coast, when he reluctantly offers a job to Brian, the carefree brother who's also a pilot. Others who work at the airport are Helen (Crystal Bernard), the former girl-next-door who now works the lunch counter and aspires to be a professional cello player; Lowell (Thomas Haden Church), the not-all-there mechanic; Roy (David Schramm), the owner of the rival airline AeroMass; and Fay, who handles Sandpiper's front desk. Over the short (six episodes) first season, Joe and Brian develop romantic triangles over both Helen and Brian's ex-wife, Carol (Kim Johston Ulrich), and Brian tries to set up Joe with the island tramp (Megan Mullaly). In the second season, the romantic entanglements continue, Joe develops a health problem that keeps him from flying, and we meet the last major member of the cast, Italian cab driver Antonio Scarpacci (Tony Shalhoub). Guest stars include Cheers' George Wendt and John Ratzenberger, Abraham Benrubi (ER) as Roy's son, and David Ogden Stiers as a conductor whom Helen tries to impress. While much of the regular cast faded from view after Wings, Shalhoub and Church garnered critical acclaim for their work on Monk and Sideways, respectively. --David Horiuchi
