I thoroughly enjoyed the 1st Season of Brothers & Sisters. I missed the initial airing on TV so borrowed this DVD set from a friend.
This is one of those series that my husband even became interested in. Because there is such a big cast, there is a character for everyone to latch on to/relate to. There is a widow, recovering addict, homosexual, married couple on the rocks, ambitious career woman, new parents...need I go on!
I was worried that Calista Flockhart was going to be playing the same sort of character as Ally McBeal but was also plesantly suprised.
I would suggest this as an ideal Mothers day gift or for a friend on maternity leave (like me). Some of the story lines are a little far fetched but the eye candy and the strength of the acting certainly more than makes up for it.
This is available to buy online for sub £18 + delivery & with 23 episodes (each about 45 minutes) to get through I really think that this does offer great value for money.
