Blue Bloods: The Seventh Season is another solid year for this now venerable series, mostly due to the cast, headlined by Tom Selleck, than the storylines or crimes.

Review: NCIS: New Orleans: The Third Season DVD
NCIS: New Orleans: The Third Season isn’t much of, if any, improvement of its previous two years as the writing is still subpar and acting not much better. On the plus side, and only because I’m a fan, I did like the inclusion of Vanessa Ferlito and will at least give the fourth season a chance.

Review: Killing Hasselhoff DVD
You’re enjoyment for Killing Hasselhoff depends on a couple things: one is if you have any interest in “The Hoff” (which I don’t) or like Ken Jeong’s style of humor (again, which I don’t), thus this was a tough sit through as most of the humor didn’t really land very well.
Review: The Originals: The Complete Fourth Season DVD
This fourth season of The Originals is, for me, more of the same. Some of the stories aren’t terribly compelling (so to speak) but I still enjoy Joseph Morgan’s Klaus character and at least the season is watchable.

Review: The Secret World of Alex Mack – The Complete Series DVD
Finally after all these years, all 4 seasons of The Secret Life of Alex Mack is available and while the show is cheesy, it’s still entertaining for what it is. On the downside there are no bonus material and the video/audio transfers are both substandard but with a low SRP, to the point you’ll be able to pick this up on the cheap.

Review: Descendants 2 DVD
As someone in his mid-30s now, and with no kids, a movie like Descendants 2 isn’t exactly aimed at me, now if this were a sequel to the Alexander Payne drama that might be a different story…
Review: Britney Ever After DVD
Britney Ever After is, to put it bluntly, awful movie which should come to no surprise since it is a Lifetime Original Movie, but I suppose if you watch this with a group of friends, could make for a fun MST3K-like party.
Review: Correspondence DVD
Although a bit too long for its own good, Correspondence is a well acted and finely photographed romance-drama that is well worth a rental so long as you keep expectations in check, particularly for Giuseppe Tornatore fans.
Review: Adventure Time: The Complete Seventh Season DVD
Adventure Time: The Complete Seventh Season is, in itself, another solid season for the series. The issue with this release is that while the first six releases got a Blu-ray release but for whatever reason, season seven is DVD only.

Review: Dirty Dancing (2017) DVD
This unnecessary remake offers none of the charm of the 1987 original, the updated music isn’t anything that special either and at over two hours long, really a bit of a slog to sit through.
Review: Vega$: The Complete Series DVD
While Vega$ wasn’t quality, or even consistent, entertainment, I did find this to be an enjoyable enough series that rode almost solely on Robert Urich’s charms, with honorable mentions toward Bart Braveman and Greg Morris, rather than the writing.
Review: Becker: The Complete Series DVD
Becker was a show which is easily forgotten especially since it never reached the creative levels of Cheers or Frasier, but as it is, I found the series had some truly hilarious moments and a strong supporting cast.
Review: Joan of Arcadia: The Complete Series DVD
Joan of Arcadia was a short-lived but well acted drama-fantasy highlighted by Amber Tamblyn in what could’ve been a star-making role, alongside Joe Mantegna and Mary Steenburgen. At times it might not have been greatly compelling but it there were entertaining episodes spanning the two seasons.

Review: Outsiders: Season Two DVD
Outsiders: Season Two (which is the final season) is a solid adventure-drama that features some interesting storylines in conjunction with a fine cast led way by the vastly underrated David Morse.
Review: Bitter Harvest DVD
Bitter Harvest tells an interesting, and topical, story about the Ukrainian country and its people battling against the Stalin-led Soviet Union. The performances are mostly well done headlined by Max Irons.
