AEON FLUX: THE COMPLETE ANIMATED COLLECTION (reviewed by Geoffrey
Miller, overall score 88/100):
"The animation and art direction is an utterly original mix of the
darker side of anime with American underground comics. Every frame,
drawn by hand, is filled to the brim with attention to detail and
cinematic panache."

THE BEVERLY HILLBILLIES/PETTICOAT JUNCTION CHRISTMAS COLLECTION
(reviewed by Cynthia Boris, overall score 70/100):
"Where else can you see your favorite TV character enjoying the fresh,
clean taste of a Winston Cigarette (now in a crush proof box)?"

CHRISTMAS WITH THE KRANKS (reviewed by Brett Cullum, overall
score 52/100):
"Best thing about Christmas with the Kranks is the whole family will
probably be bored enough with the movie to actually strike up a
conversation instead of watching television. It's Yuletide aversion
therapy for video addicts."

C.S.I.: CRIME SCENE INVESTIGATION: THE COMPLETE FIFTH SEASON (reviewed
by Neal Masri, overall score 90/100):
"All in all, we have a pretty well-stocked set here. It'll certainly
keep any C.S.I. junkie busy for many hours."

THE FUNNIEST OF THE PLANET'S FUNNIEST ANIMALS: VOLUME 1 (reviewed by
David Johnson, overall score 70/100):
"Heck, these weren't even the funniest animals in my living room! (My
cat was licking herself on the couch next to me.)"

OKLAHOMA!: 50TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION (reviewed by Bryan Pope, overall
score 90/100):
"The moment Curly rides out of the cornfield and onto the expansive
Oklahoma prairie, it's clear that the theater was never anywhere near
large enough to house the sprawling spectacle of Rogers &
Hammerstein's revolutionary musical."

ROSEANNE: THE COMPLETE FIRST SEASON (reviewed by Jennifer Malkowski,
overall score 75/100):
"This is the stuff of the show's first season: normal, everyday stuff
that happens in the life of a working class family. Sure, there's coffee
every morning, but most comforts and luxuries are more of a struggle for
the Conners."

STATE FAIR: 60TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION (reviewed by Bryan Pope, overall
score 80/100):
"The farm is so picturesque, the house so cozy and overflowing with blue-
gingham hominess, it's like watching an ad for Hickory Farms, only with
songs -- and without the delicious smoked cheese spread that compliments
their sesame crackers so nicely."
