DVD Reviews of Damages: The Complete First Season

DVD Review: the most riveting show on television
Summary: 5 Stars

I started watching Damages when it aired on tv, but I tuned out because I knew watching the episodes a week apart I was missing subtleties. I started again when it came out on dvd, and I'm so glad I watched it this way. The show is the smartest and most riveting show on television. Every frame, every line, and every scene matters. Every character will surprise you. It's visually stunning. A word of warning: you won't want to stop watching, so wait until you have a weekend to devote to this fantastic show.

DVD Review: damages ok!
Summary: 3 Stars

The product arrived ok but the quality of the disc is just ok. It had some freeze spots during the first two stories. I hope the rest is ok. Bob Mangini

DVD Review: THE BEST PILOT
Summary: 4 Stars

DAMAGES has the best pilot I've ever seen in a drama show. It is very subtle and violent at the same time and leaves us wondering what that would lead to. I watched it and couldn't stop. The series, in general, is very good. The acting is magnificent. It's always a pleasure to see the many real faces of Glenn Close, her speech, and try to guess her caracter. However, I hope - I only watch this movies on DVD - that DAMAGES doesn't turn Glenn Close into that very pure-evil one-dimension woman that we've seen in Fatal Attraction. If that happens, the show would become, for me, just another kind of Mexican soap opera, and I'll loose the interest in it.

DVD Review: Excellent drama! Completely entertaining!
Summary: 5 Stars

I watched the entire series over 2-3 days. I thought the acting was superb, the plot was compelling and the suspense was wonderful. I highly recommend this series!

DVD Review: Damages leaves us begging for more
Summary: 5 Stars

It takes a great deal to get me hooked to a show. Damages took no convincing at all. It is the best Drama ever written for television and will have you begging for more. Imagine reading your favorite novel that begs you to keep turning pages....you'll want to sit down over a weekend and absorb this mesmerizing drama. Glenn Close at her best!

Description of Damages: The Complete First Season

Hot new legal thriller on FX! Set in New York's world of high stakes litigation, Damages follows the lives of Patty Hewes, the nation's most revered and most reviled litigator, and her bright, ambitious prot?g?e Ellen Parsons as they become embroiled in a class action lawsuit targeting Arthur Frobisher, one of the country's wealthiest CEOs. As Patty battles Frobisher and his attorney, Ellen learns what it takes to win at all costs, and that lives, not just fortunes, are at stake.
Smart, sleek, and more than a little wicked, the Golden Globe-winning series Damages proves that legal programs don't have to follow a well-worn formula in order to prove completely addictive. In fact, the show (from Todd and Glenn Kessler and Daniel Zelman, whose credits include The Sopranos) steers clear from nearly all courtroom drama clich?s over the course of its 13 episodes, and hews closer to classic film noir with the slowly-spun web of deceit that is woven around fresh-scrubbed lawyer Ellen Parsons (Rose Byrne). After joining the legal firm headed by uber-powerful litigator Patty Hewes (Glenn Close, who won a Golden Globe for her performance), Parsons lands a career-making case--a class-action lawsuit against millionaire Arthur Frobisher (Golden Globe nominee Ted Danson)--but discovers that digging deeply into the case not only reveals layers of corruption, cover-up, and potential scandal, but places her own life in jeopardy as well. Smart, mature writing and note-perfect performances, most notably by Danson as the perverse and complex Frobisher, but also by Tate Donovan, Zeliko Ivanek, Peter Facinelli, Philip Bosco and Peter Reigert, make Damages a genuine pleasure for law and mystery show fans, but also those craving a challenging series that delivers water cooler chat material in every episode. The three-disc set includes all 13 episodes as well as deleted scenes; among the featured extras are two choice commentaries, one with Close, the Kesslers and Zelman, and the other with Ivanek and the creators, both of which are chock-full of production and technical insights. A 30-minute making-of featurette, discussions about the characters by the creators, and a guide to class-action lawsuits rounds out the fine supplemental features. --Paul Gaita
