Fast action, great acting, intriguing story lines. Law and Order when it was at its best. Loved the Blood episode.

This review is from: Law and Order: The Eighth Year (Season 8) (DVD)
This season is not as great as previous seasons. I am sorry to learn that Carey Lowell left her role as ADA. The surprised ending of each episode still amazes me and the guest stars did perform well. I like the continuity with Jerry Orbach, Benjamin Bratt and Sam Waterston on the show.Law and Order: The Eighth Year (Season 8)

We love watching Law and Order on TV; the ones where they play 3 or 4 in a row of reruns. It was recommended that Season 7 and 8 were the place to start buying. They actually are better than the new ones; more details, story, acting and substance than the current way they are doing the show.

One of the Best,
By J. DeAngeles "JDizzle" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Law and Order: The Eighth Year (Season 8) (DVD)
Law and Order Season 8 is without a doubt one of the best seasons of the shows 20 year run...and unfortunately the most recent of them all that is available to purchase on dvd...why seasons 9-20 are unavailable is beyond me...This is the last season of Assistant ADA Jamie Ross (Carie Lowell), working with ADA Jack McCoy...she played the role VERY well...may have even matched the performance of her predecessor Claire Kincaid (Jill Hennessey)...McCoy is brilliant as always, as is Detective Lenny Briscoe...Detective Ray Curtis has completely grown into his character in this season...the chemistry between Briscoe and Curtis is starting to peak...amazing performances all around...and of course Lt Van Buren and DA Adam Schiff...nothing but the best from them as always. There are a few standout episodes that are truly riveting...and let's keep in mind that this is in the time period when this show was at its pinnacle...I would say between Seasons 5-16 to be exact, but, particularly seasons 6-12 is where this show really enthralls...My personal favorites of Season 8 are as follows: - Nullification, Baby it's You, Under the Influence, and Monster (the season finale) You learn a little bit more about the personal lives of the shows characters, without digging too deep and changing the premise of the show...they started to do that a bit by around the 6th season but in the 8th season we get to learn a bit more...and it makes the show just that much better...the occasional cliffhanger type episode is also a real treat...which has been done on a couple occasions prior to season 8, but in this season we get three back to back episodes (one of which takes place in Baltimore and includes Detective Munch, etc)...all in all, a fantastic season full of totally awesome and memorable episodes...what more can you ask for? The only sad part is Assistant ADA Jamie Ross resigning at the end, however, in season 9 we do get Angie Harmon playing Abby Carmichael as Jack's new female 2nd chair =) |
