Superlative Cop Show
The Brits do these things so much better than us Yanks.
Here's why: In British crime shows, the lead character is typically not (1) handsome; (2) heroic; (3) handy with his fists; (4) sophisticated; (5) physically fit; (6) debonair; (7) materially successful, i.e., ...

A Touch of Frost - Season 4
James McKenna, Arthur White
Mpi Home Video, 2004
Drama personalified
As I wrote in Season 3 it is David Janson why you would continue buying all the seasons. It gets better each season and takes you into the streets with all the twists and turns of the crime and human interactions that occur in the inner city.
A must follow-up for ...

Baby loves this video
This video was a God-sent one, as we traveled up north this weekend and our 12 month old was captivated and content watching Nepolean over and over again (she loves dogs!) during the 6 hour trip. The dog's voice is soothing and the video is action packed for little ...

King Lear
Barbara Flynn; Ian Holm; Amanda Redman; Paul Rhys; David Lyon; Victoria Hamilton; Adrian Irvine; Michael Simkins; Finbar Lynch
WGBH Boston, 2004
Ian Holm did it First
Long before Ian McKellan bared his bod on the stage as King Lear, Ian Holm did it in this production. Although the Olivier Lear is probably the best known, this one is very, very good. We recommend it to all Shakespeare buffs and English majors.
