DVD Reviews of Living with Ed: Season 2

DVD Review: Surely this is a spoof?
Summary: 2 Stars

I cant tell if this is intended to be serious or is a spoof on green advocates. Such naieve people, creating tons of carbon to facilitate token installing some questionable green product. Obviously the concept of Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) is too large to fit Ed's head much less the show. If it is supposed to be serious, I give it one star. If it is supposed to be funny, I give it 3. and so the average is 2.

DVD Review: Ok, but preferred Season One
Summary: 4 Stars

I actually preferred Season One, which highlighted how to develop and maintain a green household when not all (seemingly) are on board with the idea. Season Two is a bit too Hollywood Celebs Today for my taste, and the homes are not exactly like those a lot of us are living in (whereas Ed and Rachelle's is very much so).

DVD Review: Think Green 2
Summary: 5 Stars

Fun DVD to watch. Get some good Ideas on how to save money buy going green

DVD Review: Okay, but book is better
Summary: 3 Stars

I bought the book first and it has great tips on how to be spend less money and conserve more, which is what I was looking for. The series is pretty entertaining and gives some good motivation to be conservation minded. It's a bit annoying to see people tearing down perfectly good houses to build a more green house, or to see 2 people living in a huge house "go green" by replacing a few light bulbs with CFLs. I appreciate the Begley's for living as they preach though, so getting insights and tips from the way they live was good value. It's also nice that he doesn't judge anyone's efforts to conserve, no matter how small or how egregious their waste might be in other areas. As he says, low hanging fruit first and any improvement is good.

DVD Review: The rich go green
Summary: 4 Stars

As in the first season, successful actor Ed Begley, Jr. plays himself as an average Joe dedicated to conservation and simple living. His wife, Rachelle Carson, plays herself as an average Jane that would rather not think about energy one way or the other, mugging her aggravation relentlessly as Ed preaches conservation. Instead of scaring you with talk of climate change, Living With Ed serves up a mix of simple energy-saving tips (the low-hanging fruit) and pricey new technology.

We were interested by the green design approaches in the large and elegant houses of celebrities Cheryl Tiegs, Jackson Browne, and Phil Rosenthal & Monica Horan, but Larry Hagman's opulent 25,000 SF hilltop Xanadu didn't seem to fit with a message of energy conservation. To his credit, Hagman has incorporated $750K worth of solar panels, and donates energy to help nearby working class families, but Ed fails to point out that such an immense house for two people, even with a household staff, is extravagantly inefficient.

Description of Living with Ed: Season 2

For those who swore they would never watch reality TV again, (this)one is worth breaking the oath. The Chicago Tribune

Ed Begley is turning Hollywood green. Ed and his wife, Rachelle are Hollywood s dynamic duo - there at a moment s notice to help friends like Helen Hunt or Bradley Whitford in need. Ed is more than happy to put his two green cents in and even hand deliver his own bag of goodie green tricks! However when longtime pal, Jay Leno calls, could he be Ed s new competition? Jay proudly announces that he is the New Ed Begley having the coolest green toys in town like his 1899 natural gas engine or his 1900 generator that produces its own electricity! Ed is amazed and maybe envious, but then again, knowing Ed, who knows what he ll come up with next? One thing is for sure, with Ed on the case, Mother Earth is sure to be around for years to come.
