Newsradio

Hey Everyone,

Just went to Best Buy and bought Newsradio Seasons 1 & 2 on DVD and it's terrific! I never saw the show in its original run, but one night I saw a rerun and I was hooked. I used to stay up late every night just to watch the show.

If you haven't seen the show, you should definitely check it out. The cast is incredible; Maura Tierney (E.R.), Stephen Root (King of the Hill), Dave Foley (Kids in the Hall), and the late Phil Hartman (SNL), with Andy Dick, Vicky Lewis, Khandi Alexander, and Joe Rogan.

Despite its popularity, the show only lasted five seasons (1995-1999) mainly because Phil Hartman was murdered during season 4, and the show never recovered from the blow. The show never caught blistering success of other shows in the mid-90s though, it was on the brink of cancellation every single season it was on the air, despite terrific reviews.

Anyways, this is just one of those shows were every single episode is hilarious, and you should definitely pick it up as soon as possible.
