Advantages: Romantic, full of hope
Disadvantages: Some people are not romantics.

In 1993, Sleepless in Seattle was launched, and there were a lot of trailers on the television about it, and I wondered if it would live up to its expectations, although having a great respect for the cast of Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan, I thought it worth buying and bought it at £8.99 on VHS as this really is a time before I had computers and Amazon, although I note that today's price from Amazon is from £6.49 for the DVD version and interestingly enough, ...
...am tempted to buy because I enjoyed the film so much, and do not have a DVD version. The movie is one that makes people who believe in fate, and the fact that two souls can join together and be destined for each other, seem a reality, and being a hopeless romantic, this idea appealed to me. Meg Ryan plays an already engaged young lady who has seen people marry, and begins to look at her life and question her relationship because although her fiance ... Read review

Advantages: show hits its stride, better storylines, family friendly without adults having to tooth grind
Disadvantages: still no R2 release for direct UK sales. PFFFT Sony! Also no extras

...Ok, Miaow! This aside, I can tell you that it was a very well put together series this season, making it easy to see why it has remained a firm favourite for many over the past several decades. The attention put to transferring this to digital medium also shows a lot of care, and a strong desire to not disappoint the fans. Well, they did disappoint me slightly, as the only R2 version I can get is either in German with an alternate English soundtrack, ...
...Whatever, until it was mentioned, I had not really noticed! I CAN tell you, however, that with the present dearth of decent programming and recent favourites being now scarce as we experience the resulting break midseason from the earlier writer's strike, this makes great TV viewing in the main, and the bonus is, if you have kids, they can watch it too. ...
