DVD Reviews of Army Wives: The Complete First Season

DVD Review: Awesome TV show
Summary: 5 Stars

I personally LOVE this Lifetime series. I started watching season Three and fell in love. I bought season one to see the beginnings of the show. It's a great series and purchased season two.

If your looking for a soap opera WITHOUT the cheese, bad lighting and close ups then this series is for you. You can really relate to the characters in this show.

DVD Review: Loved this Dvd
Summary: 5 Stars

I became a fan of this show after watching this DVD. It's an amazing fun experience. Try it.

DVD Review: Wishing it was a family movie!
Summary: 3 Stars

Army Wives would have got a 5 star rating from me if it was a family movie. There is so much that even the kids could have learned and enjoyed (besides sex ed!!!). Call me old fashioned but it would have been Excellent if they had left out some of the details of the 'romance' scenes. There is not enough family movies any more.

DVD Review: I'm addicted to this show.
Summary: 5 Stars

I had seen Season 1 of Army Wives before, but loved it so much I had to buy it. It's by far my new favorite show. It's so easy to get really connected to the characters. I love it.

DVD Review: Army Wives
Summary: 5 Stars

Have watched this show from day one and wouldn't miss an episode. It portrays the life of 5 main families on an Army post in the Carolinas and the events that happen from day to day in the lives of each family and their friends! It doesn't go exactly by Army protocol but is close enough! It has a Dad and son serving in Iraq together, a soldier in Delta Force, a female Lt Col. facing deployment months after having her 1st baby! Just all sorts of things that can happen to soldiers and their families!

Description of Army Wives: The Complete First Season

UPC:786936749601
DESCRIPTION: Army Wives tells the story of four women and one man who are brought together by their common bond they all have enlisted spouses. They form an unlikely alliance as they help one another through the challenges, tragedies, and struggles of army life. END
Lifetime's spectacularly successful first original series, Army Wives, hit a home run out of the gate. By focusing on those "keeping the home fires burning" and largely ignoring politics, the series appeals to fans of great drama all over the political spectrum. The Season One boxed set shows a key reason for its strength: the first-rate cast, led by Catherine Bell (JAG) as Denise and Kim Delaney (NYPD Blue) as Claudia, but also featuring the seasoned TV actress Wendy Davis (Joan) and plucky newcomer Sally Pressman (Roxy). (There's also one prominent Army husband, Claudia's husband Roland, played by the handsome Sterling K. Brown.) The chemistry among these women, living together at an Army base while most of their husbands are off at war--or helping to orchestrate the battles afar--is as undeniable as in any great TV ensemble, reminiscent of the early days of ER. This territory has been for some reason largely unexplored by Hollywood, but what a rich territory it is: Americans may exhort "Support our troops," but the ones who do that day in and day out, on a deep emotional level, are the troops' families. In one moving mid-season scene, Claudia gives a speech, exclaiming, "We serve too!" which is no less moving for being obvious.

The series also doesn't stint on its visuals and sets. Shot on location in South Carolina, using a variety of vacant military bases and stately historic homes, Army Wives has a richness, a depth rarely seen on TV. The optional commentary, by the episode's director and its visual effects director, helps the viewer appreciate the cinematic techniques employed in the shots--lingering tracking shots, for example, and fewer cuts back and forth. But Army Wives is not without humor. When Roxy overhears a conversation in a ladies' room about one wife's possibly being beaten, she announces for the full room to hear: "He hits you once, hit him back. Hits you again, shoot him in the b--ls!" Cut to closed stall, where a couple has been trying to have a secret tryst, stifling laughter. The laughs leaven the tears, but the drama of the series overall is always first-rate --A.T. Hurley
