BIONICLE 2: LEGENDS OF METRU NUI (reviewed by Mitchell Hattaway, overall
score 50/100):
"The judgment expressed here reflects my opinion; anyone under the age
of ten will rate it much higher. How can I be so sure? Because if I were
that age I would want the bloody thing!"

CARE BEARS: JOURNEY TO JOKE-A-LOT (reviewed by Bill Treadway, overall
score 74/100):
"In my 25 years on the planet Earth, I have never found myself compelled
to try recreational drugs. However, after viewing Care Bears: Journey to
Joke-a-lot, I now have a sound idea of what an LSD trip must be like."

COLUMBO: THE COMPLETE FIRST SEASON (reviewed by Maurice Cobbs, overall
score 88/100):
"Columbo always acts so befuddled. He kills you with kindness. He
infuriates you with his obsequiousness. He nags you with a thousand
little questions and observations. And he always asks you where you got
your shoes. Columbo may not look like it, but he's a master predator. "

IN LIVING COLOR: THE COMPLETE SECOND SEASON (reviewed by Amanda DeWees,
overall score 94/100):
"One of the main reasons that ILC was so successful is that its comedy
truly didn't discriminate. Everyone was fair game -- black, white, male,
female, young, old, gay, straight, even handicapped (the Handi Man
sketches are instances of equal-opportunity mockery that would certainly
never be seen today). Keenen Ivory Wayans made sure the writers knew
that laughs took priority over any other agenda, and that decision pays
off richly."

THE JEFF FOXWORTHY SHOW: THE COMPLETE FIRST SEASON (reviewed by Brett
Cullum, overall score 70/100):
"And if you fancy Jeff Foxworthy in a more unnatural way, he does appear
shirtless in almost every episode. Don't ask me why that happens. It
just does. Think of it as a bonus feature."

LOST IN SPACE: SEASON TWO, VOLUME ONE (reviewed by Dennis Prince,
overall score 75/100):
"Besides the addition of glorious color to the show in 1966, the second
season of Lost in Space introduced another plainly detectable change --
it veered away from the prevalent adventure tone of the first year,
electing to add farcical fare to the interplanetary proceedings (perhaps
taking a cue from the wildly popular and just plain wild Batman).
Needless to say, the fan base remains split over the outcome."

UNSOLVED MYSTERIES: GHOSTS (reviewed by David Packard, overall
score 90/100):
"The variety in the stories staves off boredom and evokes a range of
emotions. One segment leaves you with a smile, while the next one has
you scrambling to find the light switch and jumping at every noise.
Whatever type of ghost story you prefer, chances are you'll find it
included in this collection."

WHAT'S NEW, SCOOBY-DOO?: HALLOWEEN BOOS AND CLUES (VOLUME 3) (reviewed
by Lacey Worrell, overall score 65/100):
"Longtime fans of Scooby (let's face it, there are at least two
generations' worth by now) will be heartened by the fact that good old
Casey Kasem is still voicing the character of Shaggy. This makes him the
Dick Clark of cartoon voices, considering the fact that this series made
its first appearance almost 40 years ago."

XENA: WARRIOR PRINCESS, SEASON FIVE (reviewed by David Gutierrez,
overall score 88/100):
"Xena: Warrior Princess, Season Five is perhaps the most the series'
most ambitious and uneven season to date. Employing different
philosophies and religions, Xena focuses on polytheism giving way to
monotheism -- with some musical numbers thrown in for good measure."
