Product Description
From Amazon.com
Reality TV series Dog the Bounty Hunter is far more entertaining than it has any right to be. Consider: The central figure is a middle-aged, former biker and Texas felon with a ridiculous '80s rock star haircut and an Oahu-based business ("Da Kine Bail Bonds") collaring drug-addled fugitives. Yet Dwayne "Dog" Chapman's criminal-snagging exploits all over Honolulu, aided by his scary-looking brother, son, Nephew, and invaluable, fiercely independent wife, Beth, are captivating in a surreal, larger-than-life fashion. The Best of Season One includes several highly watchable episodes, watching Chapman's team do its dangerous work, a startling blend of machismo and almost prayerful compassion for the losers being dragged back to justice. But this is also a show about family; about the Chapmans' beautiful house and kids, about making time for a birthday party after hauling in a dangerous creep. Weird, silly, suspenseful, and fun. --Tom Keogh

I love the show and I am not into reality TV!,
By Samantha Phipps - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Dog the Bounty Hunter S1 (DVD)
I have never written an online review for anything, but I have to admit that I stop what I am doing to catch Dog the Bounty Hunter. I have been in the field of human services for abut 20 years now, working with homeless people for over seven and for 11 years in Child Protective Services and I get the feeling that "Dog" and family are "real." They are great at what they do, tough, yet compassionate. It comes through in the TV show and it works for me. I don't watch ANY other reality TV, but I laugh and cry and cheer over these folks. Keep up the good work! These are not hypocrites. They need to use these episodes to help train Social Workers and other people who interact with people who need tough love. We need more "Dogs" and "Beths" in this world.

As real as it gets...,
By P. Weisgerber - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Dog the Bounty Hunter S1 (DVD)
This is an excellent series, because it is as close to real "reality" TV as you can get. Not only are they apprehending criminals, but they are sticking together as a family and trying to teach the people they catch a valuable lesson on life, which makes this series much more enveloping than other shows. Chapman is very brave in the fact that he doesn't use a gun to apprehend bail-jumpers. A class-act show that I thoroughly enjoy every time I watch it. I hope they bring out the entire season and eventually the series as it develops in the future.

Great Job Dog! I tip my hat to you and your family.,
By Tess n Company "Tessie" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Dog the Bounty Hunter S1 (DVD)
I started watching this show one evening just to see what it was all about,and now I am hooked!! I love it and wouldnt ever miss it! I love the family members bonding together to build a good, strong, solid family business, staying strong for each other no matter what happens.They go out into the world, and face the enemy, to apprehend these dangerous people, putting them away so we all can be safe. It takes alot of courage and faith to do what they do.You can see that he truely cares about these people by warning them that unless they change and turn their lives around, they are in for a lifetime of prison or death. Its all about choices, and taking responsibility for their actions. Dog is well aware of what being a "bad boy" means, and tells it from the heart. With all of Dog's past experiences being on the wrong side of the law and how it deeply affected his sons,grandfather and father he wants to help. I truely admire him for turning his life around. After he apprehends them, he hears their story, and feels so badly for them, eyes full of tears because they have touched his heart.He wants to give them another chance like someone once did for him. Who in the world could ever truely imagine and understand how these criminals think and feel, but one who has suffered the pain and horror for himself ? Its like a youth counselor, who has never been around kids.How would they know? |
