4.0 out of 5 stars Like, Totally '80s, You Know?!, Dec 26 2010
By 
Mr. David T. Albert (Winnipeg, MB Canada) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Square Pegs: The Complete Series (DVD)
Watched this show when it first aired in 1982 and watched it till the end after 1 season. Too bad it didn't last longer. I was starting high school the same year this aired. The humour was too ahead of it's time for some. Of course, once they moved the show opposite the A-Team, they didn't stand a chance. People were still interested in watching Mr. T blow up things, than watching something that was witty, well written, and explored trying to fit into high school when you are not considered cool. Kind of reminded me of Ugly Betty-another brilliant show they cancelled. Fans who want to see Sarah Jessica Parker before she became glammed up and was more real, will find this a wonderful treat. The extras are entertaining to find out what happened to some of the stars of the show. Check this out if you are interested in shows from the 1980's or if you want to relive some high school memories, or just want to watch something that was well written and like, totally cool, you know!

2.0 out of 5 stars Music GONE!, Jun 2 2008
By Dominic Casario "wonderpuppy" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Square Pegs: The Complete Series (DVD)
They took the cheap way out and didn't license most of the great 80s tunes as heard when the show originally aired. In some places it's obvious, like when Marshal introduces a Minor Threat song while DJing at the school radio station and they play some generic dreck. Other times, it's more subtle, like every scene in the diner originally had music playing in the background, and now there's just nothing.

4.0 out of 5 stars It behooves me to say ..., May 14 2008
By Edward Aycock - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Square Pegs: The Complete Series (DVD)
I used to watch this every Monday night, and then the kids at school would all talk about it the next day. Sadly, the show died a premature death, which was a bummer as I always wanted to see Lauren and Patty grow and get over not being part of the in-crowd. Oh well, we can all pretend Patty became a famous New York sex columnist ...

Now to the DVDs. I've seen the set and all I can say is, "Totally New Wave."

Fans of the show will be thrilled to know that all the episodes are here as they were originally presented - crystal clear, with the Waitresses and Devo's appearances intact and the full 24 minute running times. Of course, we have to suffer through the awful canned laughter, there was no option to get rid of it.

This show brings back memories for sure, and it's hard to believe it's been over a quarter of a century. Is that even possible?

A great feature of the DVDs is the cast interviews. The only members missing are Merritt Buttrick, who passed away in 1989, and Jon Caliri who played Vinnie. It's fun to see Tracy Nelson and Claudette Wells together again.

Will a new generation appreciate the show? Who knows, but for a lot of us, this is a great piece of nostalgia and a funny show.

5.0 out of 5 stars groundbreaking tv show ,, April 12 2008
By mr. smith - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Square Pegs: The Complete Series (DVD)
on a much higher level than almost anything ever done about high school . its also funny as hell and done at at a time where most high shool characters were student body president or head cheerleader, now most teen characters are cooly reflective outsiders. This show is long over due but is arguably the best comedy about TEEN life ever
