5.0 out of 5 stars I can't even stop the nude olympics!, August 26, 2007

This review is from: Boston Public - The Complete First Season (DVD)

Set in a fictional high school in Boston, this show was great. I was sad to see many of the original stars leave in the later seasons. However the first season was by far the best. This show centered around the lives of both the students, teachers, parents, and administration. Everyday is something different. A teacher writes that she is going to kill herself on the chalkboard, to a Social Studies teacher who is telling students to wear bras for the good of this country. Lets not forget the nude olympics which Mr. Guber (Vice-Principal) tries but doesn't suceed to stop. Chi McBride (I, Robot) was outstanding as the principal who always knew how to get the superintendant off of his back. I miss this show and hope it comes to DVD soon.

5.0 out of 5 stars Prime Grade A Kelley, September 27, 2007

Before David E. Kelley went off the deep end with Boston Legal (and became a superstar, go figure), he created great, great human dramas like Picket Fences, The Practice, and Boston Public. Loved everything about BP, from Chi McBride's hyperethical principal and Nicky Katt's erratically dark history teacher to Fyvush Finkle's Harvey Lipschultz. I even enjoyed the parade of "temp" cast members like Dennis Miller, a white collar criminal on community service to Kathy Baker as Asst. Principal Guber's psycho girlfriend. The stories were funny, warm, and emotionally involving -- it was a perfect way to end the week. Hope to see Season One soon.

This review is from: Boston Public - The Complete First Season (DVD)

I was about 14 years old when this show came on the air, let me tell you I watched every episode until Jessalyn Gilsig left the show. This is one of the best TV programs Fox ever put on the air! This show is about a fictional high scool in Boston, MA. I fell in love with the show and the entire cast. In 2003 (I think) a few of the original cast members left the show, I was very distraught! I stopped watching the show after my favorite actors left, yes I watched the opening credits to see if they would make a guest apperance but only to small or nor avail. The show had lost the best actors and inturn they had lost the chrisma that had brought me to the show in the first place! I think the show would still be on to this very day if the original cast would not have left, at least I know I would still be watching!
