L.A. Ink: Season 1 (2007) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)A year or so back I had no clue who the h**l Kat Von D was. One of my friends liked her show and her love for tattoos. So I decided to look her up online and to my surprise...wow! Her work is very in depth and awsome! I don't have cable so I am not able to watch her television show. When I saw The First Season was coming out on dvd, I had to have it! I didn't buy it when it first came out due to issues.
Recently I went over my friends house and she has cable and we were watching it. The show is awsome! Recently my set arrived in the mail and I have been watching it since then. You get to see a little in-depth look into her personal life along with her love for tattoos. Her JOB! Tattooing is not an easy job...as it is shown on the show. Kat and her posse are very good at their work and are very great artists!
Great Reality T.V. Show!!! Not full of bulls**t!!!
Problems are:
This dvd set says on the box Season 1 Vol. 1. I dont get why? Too much confusion here! I looked on many websites online and it lists 13 episodes for Season 1. This set includes 13 episodes which makes the entire first season. So why do they have it say "Season 1 Vol.1?
The 3 dvds in this set are not in your regular dvd case. No regular case...no slim cases. They are kept in cardboard sleeves. WTH! So everytime you take out a disc to watch it will get scratched. So why would you want to buy dvds that will get scratched each time you want to watch it? When I took out each disc to inspect them, they had light scratches. Light scratches "who cares" some may say? I care! I spent my money on a dvd set that should last a while, not a year. It says that the dvd companies are cheap with releasing television dvd sets!! I believe it's a sneeky ploy. They make them cheap, so then when it messes up people will keep buying the sets over and over again.
Also if you like your dvds to have awsome extras...this set doesn't have them!

Hannah Montana, Vol. 1 - Livin' the Rock Star Life (2006) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have been on this earth for thirty-one years and I'm proud to say that I like "Hannah Montana." My daughter is totally captivated by this series and by young Miley Cyrus, who heads up the cast of the show. We already own "Pop Star Profile" and my daughter (and me) watch the series on the Disney Channel together. The show is funny, light, girlishly silly at times and one of the safest shows for youngsters and pre-teens around. Don't let the "safest" comment scare you. This show is full of smart laughs for kids and in-jokes for their parents who know where Miley's dad, Billy Ray Cyrus, came from.
This particular DVD contains four episodes of the series. They are "Money For Nothing, Guilt For Free," "Lilly, Do You Want To Know A Secret," "Miley Get Your Gum," and "I Can't Make You Love Hannah If You Don't." These particular shows revolve around Miley going to great lengths to keep (and in a couple of cases, revealing) her secret life as pop star, Hannah Montana. Fans of "High School Musical" will recognize Corbin Bleu as a reluctant fan of Montana in one episode.
I have to agree with another reviewer that this show's characters have great chemistry on the tube. Cyrus, Emily Osment (Lilly), and Mitchel Musso (Oliver) are believable as best friends. Jason Earles is terribly terrific as Miley's goofy brother, Jackson. The elder Cyrus does his part as well playing a father who thinks he's a lot cooler than he actually is and tries to deal with his daughter growing up.
The extras on the disc are okay. There's a music video for "Best Of Both Worlds," Miley talking about gaining the role of Hannah and following her dreams, and her audition tapes.
Overall, this entire series is perfect for youngsters to watch. Hannah can be silly at times and she even makes some bad choices, but in the end, she suffers the consequences and deals with her problems like a fairly normal pre-teen. She and all of the other kids in the show seem pretty grounded, don't expect everything handed to them, don't dress or act like sluts, and are all-around decent kids. That's rare on TV these days, even in most "family" shows.
In a world where hotel heiresses who proclaim, "That's hot," are applauded for their social status, it's nice to see that a few young ladies still know how to act like real young ladies.
Highly recommended.

Jon and Kate Plus Ei8ht: Season Four, Volume Two- The Big Move (2009) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My daughter has been in to Jon & Kate since they first came on tv, and even now that they aren't together anymore she still likes to watch the old episodes. She loves them, I don't know if she has a preference of past seasons dvd's, she has all of them and it seems like she watches them equally, I think she likes this one because they get the puppies on one of the episodes and she loves dogs. I've read some of the reviews on the Jon and Kate dvds some saying how they noticed tension between Jon & Kate, lets face it, Kate has always been bossy from the beginning, maybe adults tend to over analyze, I don't think a kid is going to notice any difference from these episodes as compared to the earlier episodes. Besides, your either a fan or your not. My daughter is and she loves them.

In Volume 2 of the fourth season of Jon& Kate Plus Eight , fans follow the Gosselin clan as they finally move into a house large enough for everyone including some canine additions to the family! In one episode, eight-year-old twins Mady and Cara play Mommy for the Day. In another, they head to the orthodontist for the first time while their six siblings get their teeth cleaned. The family travels to New York on a press tour and then to Tennessee to volunteer at St. Jude s Hospital. They also find a way to fit in a trip to watch the Harlem Globetrotters in action! But the biggest focus in this Volume is the Gosselin s big move where we watch them say goodbye to the home where the kids have grown up and where fans first fell in love with this unique and fascinating family.

Hannah Montana - Pop Star Profile (2006) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Hannah Montana is a cute show about a 14 year old girl living a double life. By day she is Miley Stewart, an average teen girl living an average life, but by night she's Hannah Montana, teen pop sensation. Miley usually likes to keep her second life on the down low but in this collection she is tempted to throw caution to the wind and reveal her secret to the world.
Jake Ryan, a famous TV actor, enrolls at Miley's school and unlike her he absorbs all the attention. Jake gets everything his heart desires while Miley starts to get shafted (her locker is even moved to the basement to make room for Jakes mega star locker). Miley gets really irritated with the way everyone drools over Jake when she is just as (and maybe even more) famous then he is. Later on, however, she starts to see another side of Jake Ryan and a little crush develops.
This collection contains four episodes all revolving around Miley and Jake's relationship:
The New Kid in School:
Jake Ryan enrolls at Miley's school. She gets irritated with the way he gets special treatment.
More Then a Zombie to Me:
Hannah Montana gets a role on Jake's TV show. Miley discovers that she really does like Jake.
Good Golly, Miss Molly:
Miley loses a video tape of her confessing her love for Jake. Somehow it ends up in his possession. She needs to get it back.
People Who Use People:
Miley and Jake 'date' other people to make each other jealous. Jake and Miley confess their feelings for each other and become a couple, for a few minutes anyway.
There are two bonus features:
The Real Miley Cyrus:
An exclusive, behind-the-scenes look at the star of "Hannah Montana" and her real-life family including her superstar dad, Billy Ray Cyrus.
Nobody's Perfect:
A concert performance of one of Hannah's new songs, from the upcoming second season of the hit series
I love this show but these are no where near my favorite episodes. So I'm not sure whether or not I'll be picking up the collection myself but if these episodes appeal to you or yours by all means buy the DVD.

You've got an all-access pass to the exciting life of a celebrity in HANNAH MONTANA: POP STAR PROFILE! Relive Hannah's drama when another big star comes on the scene and shakes things up. Plus, meet Miley Cyrus's real-life family and experience Hannah live in concert! There's a new kid in town, and he might just be more popular than Hannah Montana! Not only is Jake Ryan (Cody Linley) a hottie, he's also a famous actor and the star of his own TV series. While "Miley" tries to keep her superstar identity (and her secret crush) under wraps at school, "Hannah" winds up guest starring on his show -- with an on-screen kiss! As usual, her friends and family come to the rescue, but not before she makes her way through all sorts of hilarious adventures and learns not to judge people -- especially celebrity-type people -- by appearances alone. Y'all are gonna love being insiders in Hannah Montana's rockin' world!
