The Big Easy: The Complete First Season

FINALLY!!
Like many others, I have waited a LONG time for this series to come out on DVD. I loved this show, although I have to admit that I didn't feel the same about it once Susan Walters left the cast. The chemistry between Susan Walters and Tony Crane was steamy...and I only wish the writers and done more to tempt us with their relationship later on in the series. The writing changed and some of the characters seemed to disappear about midway through the first season, but I still consider this one of my favorite series ever. The New Orleans setting, the music, the quirky characters, the push-pull relationship of Remy and Anne - I loved every minute of it. THANK YOU to whomever was responsible for finally bringing this show to DVD!

Reallly great show - very different and unique
I'm really enjoying this show. Never had pay channels before so I never heard of it. I've wanted to try it out but it was just too costly. finally went on sale a bit and I'm thrilled I took the leap. It's way better than it gets credit for - takes three episodes before you're hooked though - then you can't stop watching. I wish there were more shows like this in the sense that it's different, unique geographically and in character. Most crime dramas are all the same - even the great ones are all very similar. Because of the location, the accents, the "big Easy" culture, it is very unique. Every big city crime show tends to end up the same, it's rare to have a crime drama in such a unique location with actual southern accents. Every show these days is in the same old big cities where everyone in the show is a city person, they all sound the same and look the same - even the shows I love don't have any character diversity, location diversity, etc. I really love the show.

It's about time!
The Big Easy has been long overdue for a dvd run. The series is a deliciously written storyline woven through the streats of New Orleans, with a hometown cop/detective and district attourney from the northeast at the center of it all. Definately worth it to watch, as the southern charm, good humor and occasional steamy encounters can keep one glued to their seats.
