Product Description

This 7-time Emmy award-winning series is a remarkable blend of quirky humor and heartwarming storytelling. With an ensemble cast including Rob Morrow (Quiz Show), John Corbett (Sex and the City), and Janine Turner (Cliffhanger), Season 1 of Northern Exposure takes you back to where it all began. Fresh out of New York's Columbia University, cocky young Dr. Joel Fleischman (Morrow) is looking forward to his comfortable position in Alaska's largest city. Upon his arrival, Joel finds himself a fish-out-of-water as he's instead assigned to a tiny Alaskan village where the offbeat locals would love him to stay forever. Relive the complete first season of the show TV Guide calls "…one of television's truly fine series."

Whether it's a snowy nude sprint down Main Street, the mysterious appearance of a long-lost relative, or the improbable death of yet another of Maggie's boyfriends, life's never dull in the remote hamlet of Cicely, Alaska. Colorful characters and quirky plots propelled Northern Exposure into the hearts of millions of viewers, earning the CBS "dramedy" series seven Emmy awards between its 1990 debut and its demise six seasons later.

In season 1, we meet Dr. Joel Fleischman (Rob Morrow), an urban New York yuppie who consents to four years of rural servitude after Alaska pays his medical-school tuition. Joel's fish-out-of-water adventures drive the show, but it's the quirky ensemble of characters--Chris, the DJ/philosopher (John Corbett), Holling, the bartender (John Cullum), Maurice, the town patriarch (Barry Corbin), Ed, the filmmaker (Darren E. Burrows), and Maggie, the bush pilot (Janine Turner), among others-that keeps the series consistently entertaining. The town develops its own offbeat personality as well, a Mayberry-meets-Twin-Peaks blend of Native mysticism, Aurora Borealis-induced dreams, unlikely tales of long-lost family members, and rumors of a Bigfoot-like creature known simply as "Adam."

Northern Exposure provides a utopian escape--a place where life is interesting but never dangerous, everyone's insightful, the mystical becomes real, and nobody's burdened with a mundane 9-to-6 desk job. Cicely is a delightful place to visit, even if it's only for an hour at a time.

A mid-season replacement, season 1 consists of just eight episodes on two DVDs. Each episode includes 5-10 minutes of outtakes and deleted scenes. --Shane Burnett

What can I say? I love this show. I recommend it to leftist liberals. Though funny enough Janine Turner decades later became a Republican. Go figure.

Exposing NORTHERN EXPOSURE

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 2, 2004

Verified Purchase

I must have received a new, revised edition of this DVD with the other previous customer reviews/complaints in mind when Universal remade it. There are absolutely no flaws, a decent amount of extras (although not exceedingly entertaining it is still nice to see happy times amongst cast and crew between takes) but, most importantly contains the Pilot episode! Although a Johnny-come-lately to the series (I didn't start watching the series until it's premier syndication on A&E back in '97), I fell head over heals for this series and along with The Wonder Years has got to be the best television series ever written. I have watched this series in it's entirety 7 times and it just got better and better each time. Upon watching this series it becomes axiomatic that each actor was as carefully chosen for their corresponding roles as was the plot of each episode as well as the general plot and direction the series was predetermined to take. Masterfully written with character developement at it's best with not a shred of contradiction by the end of the series. It's just too bad Rob Morrow felt he had to leave the series in search of other prospects by the end of the fifth season or this series might very well have run for another five years. Rob and Janine's on set chemistry is something Moonlighting could only have hoped to achieve. It will be a long time before another Television series comes along as good as this one. I have waited seven years for this to come out on DVD and owning the first season is a dream come true (no more waiting until 1:00 a.m. to see commercial-drenched episodes on the Hallmark Channel) and I greatly anticipate owning the reamining five seasons as they become available. Even after all these years this series still stands the test of time and for anyone who has maybe only watched bits and pieces of Northern Exposure in the past you owe it to yourself to broaden your horizons and make this magnificent series a part of your DVD library and a part of your life.

GREAT, GREAT SERIES...CRAPPY DVD'S

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 4, 2004

Verified Purchase

Northern Exposure is on my shortlist of greatest television shows ever (the other shows on the list being MASH, The British Robin Hood series that starred Michael Praed, The Simpsons, Six Feet Under, and the Simpsons). Therefore I am very happy to finally have the first season on DVD. One only wishes that this great show could have gotten the treatment that its superior quality deserves.
To begin with...even though the first season only comprises eight episodes. And despite the shoddy way the DVD's are put together, this set still warrants acquiring (even if Universal does not deserve money for the product).
Northern Exposure is a series that was "on" from the beginning. The Caricaturization so often found in first seasons is almost completely lacking. The plot picks up and takes off.
Most of this is due to one of the greatest ensemble casts of all time (John Cullum and John Corbett lead a long list of my favorites). This cast, wedded with excellent writing, made Northern Exposure a truly transcendent show from the very beginning.
Why then the crappy treatment?
I don't mind the parka-packaging. However, I would willingly trade it to not have to deal with flipper discs and previews I am forced to fast-forward through rather than skip. It is even more annoying that there is not a printed list of which episodes are on which discs (this could confuse some--particularly with the flipper discs).
Sixty bucks is a bit much to shell out for something as poorly put together as this DVD set. Yet, the episodes are worth acquiring--any way you can.
I recommend these episodes. I also heartily recommend someone at Universal pull their heads out of wherever they stuck it.
This series deserves more.

Love Northern Exposure

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 27, 2021

Initially, when the show first ran, it repeatedly caught my eye while searching programming, however, believing it to be a weather channel, I failed to watch it for several years. Once I did, however, I was hooked. I found it tremendously creative, earthy, outside the box, with Native American mysticism and wisdom I invariably found enriching. I loved the simple way people lived, the sense of community and dependency on one another, the melding of personalities, and evolving relationships, from romantic to friend. In sum, I loved every season except the last. Still, the show is timeless, and in my view, worthwhile viewing.

Got this after being reminded of it by the UK Doc Martin version of it. Doc Martin had a problem in that I didn't like that many of the characters lol. Guess the Madela effect got me because I don't like that many of the characters in this. Lol. Guess conflict sells in TV.

It's called music rights people! Be glad they did it right!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 31, 2004

NX is a fantastic show. The extras are super. And most importantly the music appears to be intact - please understand how key this is. Other shows I enjoy (though not as much as NX!) such as Felicity, Roswell, etc have all been released to DVD with different/inferior music. It's jarring to see classic scenes with different music (usually sloppily mixed btw). I haven't made it through all 8 episodes yet, but if the music is intact throughout it is well worth the money. I'd gladly pay $10 an episode for NX up through when Joel left.
Appreciate what we have here, folks, and the integrity of the producers to stick by their commitment to deliver the episodes intact (not the re-run butcher edits or with different music). I still need to do some comparisons with my VCR tapes to make sure they didn't use the syndication edits - but I'm betting they didn't. Because they're doing it right.
Buy these and buy them again and let's make sure they put every season out.
Name me a show on television now that looks, sounds, and feels this good. Great writing, acting, directing, etc. What more do you want?!! Pay for it. Quality costs money. Reward quality with your money, so that the entertainment world will make more quality shows like this vs what we've been getting recently.
In the current environment this show would have been cancelled after only a few episodes.

Hugely Enjoyable

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on July 5, 2018

Verified Purchase

Here's a bit of a blast from the past. You'll probably have to be of an age to remember the series from its original run back in the early 90s to fully appreciate it. I doubt it will appeal to today's younger generation, but it's huge fun to re-visit the Alaskan town of Cicely and its quirky inhabitants if you enjoyed it back then.

The lead character, the newly qualified Jewish NY doctor Joel Fleischmann (Rob Morrow), who is desperately out of his comfort zone in Alaska, hasn't aged terribly well - he is just too typical of the early 90s. But the rather weird (and wonderful) town folk are still hilarious. There is the tomboy local air taxi and mail pilot Maggie (Janine Turner) whose questionable claim to fame is that all her boyfriends have died, the pompous ex NASA astronaut Mauric Minnifield (Barry Corbin), the naive young Ed Chigliak, the middle aged inn keeper Holling and his teenage beauty queen girlfriend Shelly, the shrewd shop keeper Ruth-Anne, and the charismatic ex-con Chris (played by the ever enjoyable John Corbett), the local DJ and mail order minister. And who could forget the theme music and the title sequence with the moose wandering around town?

Hugely enjoyable series if you're in the mood for some light entertainment.

Another "Fish out of water" series; this time a city doctor ends up in Alaska; I liked the fact the main character actually isn't very likable, and you feel sorry for the townsfolk stuck with him! Not as good as "Hart of Dixie" which is a similar story line, but this one you actually feel you could be in Alaska and is less focused on sex (up to you if that's good or bad!). Is generally quite light but has some serious issues on the go; I enjoyed it enough to buy the 2nd series, review to follow...

Northern Exposure season 1

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on March 25, 2009

Like holding a cup of warm cocoa, sitting in front of a fire on a winters night.
Drama comedy set in Alaska, where newly qualified, New York doctor ,Rob Morrow is tricked into taking up a post in the small rural community of Cicely, for four years.
Gentle story lines with plenty of bizarre local characters.
First broadcast in the very early nineties, although as it's set in a very remote rural community, it hasn't dated muuch.
You do get the sense that Doc Martin could well have been based on this show.
So if you like Doc Martin you'll love this.

I loved this series when it was originally broadcast and must have mentioned it enough for my daughter to remember from he early childhood, she bought me Season 2 on DVD and I have since then bought one season almost every month since. It is a great programme with some really great characters and storylines A great blast from the past. My duaghter who was too young to stay up and watch it when it was originally broadcast has really enjoyed watching it too and introducing her husband to the wonders of inhabitants of Cicely Alsaka
