Cybill: The Collector's Edition Volume 1 (1995)

Cybill aired on CBS from 1995 to 1998. Cybill was a sexy, sophisticated series, comically dealing with single parenthood, divorce, sex and dating over forty, from a realistic and fresh perspective. Cybill Shepherd stars as Cybill Sheridan, a woman who had it all: two spiteful daughters, two clingy ex-husbands, an outrageous best friend, an unstable future and a house on an eroding LA hillside. But with humor and determination, Cybill braved each new challenge that came her way, while having the time of her life discovering that life after forty was anything but downhill.

If they are going to have a two part show, have both parts on the DVD

I loved this show when it was onthe air, but due to my schedule I didn't get to see that many shows. I have always been a fan of Christine and her character on this show reminds me of Karen on Will and Grace.

All the shows were funny, but I found it iritating that there were 2 shows that were two-part shows and they only had show 1 on the DVD. If you are going to have a DVD that has a show the ends with "to be continued" either have the second show on the DVD or don't have the first show on at all. I really wanted to see how the show ended where they were accussed of killing Dr. Dick.

So disappointed!

Like so many others reviewing this DVD, I absolutely loved the TV show and hunted for recordings of it. What is so disappointing is that this DVD is a collection of shows and not the series from the beginning. Some Cybill and MaryAnn is better than none, but how releasing all of the episodes from beginning to end? September 26, 2008

If you love Cybill, it's better than nothing...

It's amazing to me that one of the "customers also bought..." items is "Caroline in the City." Is there honestly more of a demand for full seasons of "Caroline" than there is for "Cybill"? As there were over 80 episodes of "Cybill" this DVD set is just the tip of the iceberg, but it's better than nothing. Having the Valentine's Day episode on disc already made it worth my purchase, but as always, I'm amazed at what makes it onto DVD and what doesn't. September 25, 2008

Good Greatest Episode Collection

5. Bringing Home the Bacon 6. Cybill Does Diary 7. Kiss My You Fool
8. Where's a Harpoon When you Need One 9. Shoe Me the Minnie 10. Ka-Boom that is the final episode.
Disc 2 has an interview with Cybill and three bonus episodes
Goint to HEll In a Limo, Valentines Day and The Golden YEars
Average time for each episode is 23-24 minutes September 20, 2008

Why not season by season?

First off, I loved this show. My review has nothing to do with the quality on that front. I am extremely disappointed in that this is a `best of' and not a full season of episodes. In addition, these selections do not display the show at its best. Where are some of the classic episodes such as Virgin, Mother, Crone, Cybill with an `S', As the World Turns to Crap and Sex, Drugs and Catholicism?

Though any release of this show is welcome, it makes me only yearn the full seasons more. Now there are two shows to wish for: Cybill and Designing Women.
