Profit on DVD

[dlgood]

Have finally got my copy and started watching.

After viewing the four episodes that aired in 1996, I have determined that this show is exactly as awesome as I remembered it being. After finishing, I'll try to actually write some reviews or something.

Once again, I really can't believe this show ever made it to air. It's just so outside the bounds of anything I ever remember watching, certainly up to that point in time. I will have to note, however, how fandom has really changed the way I watch TV shows.

Among other things, Lisa Zane as Joanne Meltzer. A great performance, and a really neat character. Zane's acting highlights for me, how underwhelming Elizabeth Rohm was as Kate Lockley. I liked the Kate character, and I didn't really mind Rohm at the time - but Lisa Zane does so much better a job with a character that is really similar in a lot of ways.

Man, it really is hard not to root for Jim Profit, because really, this show is so awesome.

>It's just so outside the bounds of anything I ever remember watching,

I know. It's crazy! I only saw it a couple of years ago, and kept saying, "My god, I cannot believe this was on TV." When you get to the commentaries, which are pretty entertaining, you'll hear that they were thinking the same thing throughout the production, heh.

I may have to get one of Lisa Zane's albums, because the way she delivers lines is memorable enough that I'm curious to hear her sing.
