Loved it! It was so quirky and I liked how they wove music into the storylines. | |

Ex-Moderator | I loved it when it first came out. The first two seasons I watched every episode religiously. I'd really love to see it again. It hasn't come out in the US on dvd. |

I've seen it in Best Buy on dvd. Almost bought it. The whole series? I looked for it online just the other day and all I could find for region 1 was a dvd that had a handful of episodes from the first season... |

I wonder why the whole series is unavailable? Was it that big a hit overseas??? http://www.amazon.com/All...929&sr=1-4 [Edited 12/7/08 13:41pm] Here's an explanation: Music licensing issues are holding back the release of the DVD for the Ally McBeal series. The cost of implementing the episodes as is - with all the music intact - would be astronomical just because of the ridiculously expensive song rights they'd have to pay for. So, rather than service the fans, the network is trying to keep its costs down since I'm sure they've done a cost-profit analysis and found it wanting. Which is fine and practical for them, but very, very unpleasant for viewers. Sure, a couple episodes are available... but that only feeds the rage at not being able to watch the WHOLE season. There's this gut feeling that the network doesn't love its viewers much - or at all. I guess this is the downside of incorporating so much music into the show. [Edited 12/7/08 13:44pm] | |

I loved it, but the last season or two really bit it! | |

Loved it up until Robert Downey Jr. left the show 2 go back 2 jail. After that it went the way of the shark jumpin'. Listen to me on The House of Pop Culture podcast on itunes http://itunes.apple.com/u...d438631917 | |
