From clueless station... At WNYX, New York's second highest rated news radio station, a cast of strong and idiosyncratic personalities repeatedly clash--yet somehow manage to keep the station afloat. From clueless station owner Jimmy (Stephen Root), to high strung news director Dave (Dave Foley), to high-maintenence anchor team Bill and Catherine (Phil Hartman and Khandi Alexander), to by-the-book producer Lisa (Maura Tierney), and beyond, this office of eccentrics provided a seemingly endless supply of comic situations during the series' five year run on NBC-TV from 1995-1999. This 3-DVD set contains all 29 episodes from the first two seasons. [More]

Starring: Dave Foley, Stephen Root, Andy Dick, Phil Hartman

DVD Verdict

Its characters are carefully developed to offer the same kinds of contradictions and idiosyncrasies that make real people so interesting.

Compared to other media sitcoms, there's not nearly as much in the way of character growth, interesting plotlines, or steady laughs.
