As for the Ally McBeal season 3-5 DVD releases, they had only released seasons 1 and 2 separately (in addition to the complete series box set), so they are releasing 3-5 separately for those buying them one season at a time. I keep meaning to go back and watch this show–I remember watching the first season when it originally aired, but I don’t think I ever saw beyond that.
I bought the whole Ally McBeal box set when it came out. I remember I loved this show when it was on and it always made me cry. Or most of the time is made me cry. I’ll get around to rewatching it someday.
I can’t wait to hear what you have to say about the boring (IMO) 17.2 ep of TAR. They used all the “challenge” in ep 1! Why no physical challenge?
