It's tough being a professional athlete. Sure; there are big bucks. And big time glory. But there's also responsibility. Temptations. The media. Hangers on. More temptation. Diminishing skills. Lost endorsements. An uncertain future. Still more temptations. In the fast lane of pro sports; an athlete needs someone he can trust. He needs a friend. An adviser. A big brother. Today's sports superstar needs more than just an agent; he needs a super agent. He needs Arliss.

Arli$$ is a very funny, very clever show that deserves better treatment than that it was given on this DVD.

13 Episodes from it's 7 Seasons? Please!

Complete Season Sets only, thank you HBO, complete Season Sets only.

This review is from: The Best of Arli$$: The Art of the Sports Super Agent (DVD)

Who can forget the side-splitting, sometimes raunchy (but hysterical) humor or Arli$$? Answer: The producers of The Best of Arli$$, Vol. 1. The episodes that appear on this DVD are fine, but they are far from the "Best" that Arli$$ has to offer.
How can the producers of this DVD leave off the episode where Rita feeds romantic lines to Arli$$'s football player client to deliver to his er, girlfriend? How about the episode where Stanley has to deliver a special gift to the IRS agent to keep Kirby out of trouble? This is Arli$$ at it's funniest!
Let's hope that Best of Arli$$ Vol. 2 more accurately reflects the comedy that made this show so special.

5.0 out of 5 stars Its about time!, October 31, 2003

First of all, I don't know what took them so long to start putting this show on DVD. I have been looking and waiting for months now. Well, it's about time because this is one of those shows that you need to get and keep. It's a good thing they put this show on HBO because it would have never worked on network or cable TV.
Arliss is one of the funniest shows I have seen. Not sitcom family funny, but adult only almost X-rated funny at times. Believe me, this show is not for the kids, it is adult humor all the way. Arliss Michaels is a sports super agent and the show basically deals with his everyday life and the headaches and problems he has to go throw. Everything from making deals between players and teams to finding the next big plan to make more money! Arliss is an original show that is very smart and funny. There are a ton of cameos from actors and sports stars that are fun to watch! If the sports world or sports agents interest you at all then you will like this show. It's a good time, pick it up!
