Review: “Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell”: Season 1 DVD

“Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell” wasn’t exactly my cup of tea since, frankly, the jokes weren’t all that funny and some went on far too long. Still, at least each episode, totaling only 6 for its first season, at least they’re not lengthy clocking in at around 12-minutes each. This single disc DVD release offers some good selection of bonus features while the video and audio transfers were good enough.

VIDEO – 3.5/5 | AUDIO — 3.75/5

“Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell”: Season 1 is presented in its originally televised 1.78 widescreen aspect ratio and the quality, while not great, is respectable enough with good colors though there is some artifacting and pixilation.

The Dolby Digital 5.1 track provides for clear dialogue levels as well as ambient noises for background elements.

OVERALL – 2.5/5

Overall, “Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell” wasn’t exactly my cup of tea since, frankly, the jokes weren’t all that funny and some went on far too long. Still, at least each episode, totaling only 6 for its first season, at least they’re not lengthy clocking in at around 12-minutes each. This single disc DVD release offers some good selection of bonus features while the video and audio transfers were good enough.
