5.0 out of 5 stars The Long Awaited Release Of The HEAT!, June 26, 2006

By	C. Cervenka "Read Films" (CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I wondered what took them so long? This is the show I could never understand why it was never followed up with a season 3, 4 and 5. Great escapism fun, good looking women, a few young bucks and plenty of great scenery to look at.

In season one you have a different and much larger cast (season two would only include Michael Worth and Alison Armitage - two of the more interesting personalities on the show) than the final season. It includes Catherine Oxenberg, John Vernon and even Fabio in a few select episodes. Doesn't look like there are many extras on the disc so hopefully they'll get smart and season two will include some cast commentaries or something. But either way, a hidden gem of the 90s is on DVD.

Catch The HEAT!

i love the show. the actors, scenery, fighting are beautiful. holly floria, alison armitage, and catherine oxenburg are not only beautiful but intelligent women. even though it is only a tv show it makes you think if there are any special agencies helping the gov't.

5.0 out of 5 stars I feel the H.E.A.T.!!!!!!!!! Thank you Mill Creek Entertainment!!, October 8, 2006

By	Danny (NC) - See all my reviews

WOW!!!!! I must say I was in shock and could not believe it! The HEAT on DVD! I must be dreaming! MAN! I FEEL THE HEAT!!!!!!!!! One of the most under rated tv shows of the 90's makes its way to DVD! AND A NICE SET AT THAT! Mill Creek did a real nice job on this box set. Disks are all 1 sided, nice box art and information about the show, Plus behind the seens interviews and more! Season 1 is without a doubt the BEST OF HEAT and featuring the original All-Star cast. Acapulco HEAT aired in 1993 and lasted 1 season, Then out of nowhere in 1998 Acapulco HEAT returns for season 2 this time only 2 members of the original cast remain. While it was nice to see the HEAT back on tv and I did watch season 2 it was just not the same still good though. If you have never seen the show before I highly recommend it! Thank you Mill Creek Entertainment!!!
