DVD Reviews of Banacek - The Second Season

DVD Review: Banacek - You can't beat this show! It's great!
Summary: 5 Stars

I had earlier purchased "Banacek" (First & Second Seasons) from another merchant supposedly in the USA. My DVD's arrived from China, utilising some inferior kind of DVD recording material. When the DVD's got warm, they stopped. Nothing known to man could re-start them. Not only that, they were pirated, off air from a TV station somewhere in the USA. And the picture quality was dreadfully poor. In desperation, loving "Banacek", and wanting to own great quality DVD's of the show, I ordered with Amazon.com and I am kicking myself I didn't order with them in the first place! The DVD's from Amazon.com are excellent quality, absolutely legal (no pirated copies) and the show content is the best. George Peppard is really in his element in this role, it was made for him. The support acting by Christine Belford, Murray Matheson and Ralph Manza is just brilliant. Great scripts, always moving along at the right pace, believable plots, the plots also technically possible, and the whole experience is simply good-good-good! Buy the DVD set and enjoy hours of watching freelance insurance investigator Thomas Banacek outdo insurance company investigators and win his 10 percent bounty.

DVD Review: A 70s classic
Summary: 4 Stars

If you like the 70s and a mystery story that keeps your interest, this is it. The 70s style (dress, cars, lingo) abounds in this series and the storyline grabs your interest until the end. And, the solution to the mystery is always a surprise.

DVD Review: Not the a-team
Summary: 5 Stars

+Before the a team there was Banacek, a well written ,witty,enjoyable crime solving drama series.

DVD Review: The Good Old Days
Summary: 4 Stars

Having been a fan of George Peppard and in particular, Banacek, it was great to see them come out with the series on DVD. Just like the first season, this Polish sleuth digs up the unseen clues to reveal the where abouts of the stolen item. He's got class. He's definitely not PC (a relief and joy). Add to that the vintage cars we occasionally get to see him drive and you've got a blast. Don't hesitate to get this second season.

DVD Review: Banacek
Summary: 4 Stars

I loved the series as a kid and still like it much later. It is a great series about a man who works for insurance companies to recover missing items.
