Product Description
From Amazon.com
A series benchmark is "Barbeque," in which an anniversary party hosted by Pip and his commanding wife, Adina, inexorably descends into chaos when McNeil and company disregard Adnia's "no alcohol" edict. Another classic is the episode in which McNeil suspects that Frank is gay. While it does not jibe with Internet episode guides, the episode chronology on this four-disc set builds to a powerful climax, with Mike's girlfriend en route to confront his long-suffering wife (who may herself be having an affair), and Pip considering cheating on Adina with an old flame, all scored to the Ramones' pounding rendition of "Wonderful World." Whether it was ahead of its time, a victim of network neglect and mishandling, or just too dramatically different, The Job was too good for prime time. That it led to Leary's new hit series, Rescue Me, is small comfort. For faithful and frustrated viewers, it's great to have McNeil back on The Job. --Donald Liebenson
Description
Mike McNeil (Denis Leary) is a self-medicating, hard-drinking, decorated New York City detective with a wife, a mistress and a crush on a coworker. Surrounded by a partner and fellow squad members who are just as colorful, McNeil pursues his uniquely unconventional, yet effective, approach to crime solving while attempting to manage the chaos of his personal life.
Originally broadcast on ABC in 2001, The Job was shot entirely on location in New York City, giving the show a gritty look to match its always edgy comedy.

The Job-The Complete Series,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Job: The Complete Series (DVD)
This DVD set of the TV show The Job is wonderful. I only wish that there were more episodes to watch. If you like Denis Leary, or funny shows that don't contain laugh tracks, but have hilarious, acidic humor, this is the DVD collection for you. Money very well spent
4.0 out of 5 stars
Not Too Shabby,
This review is from: The Job: The Complete Series (DVD)
Unlike other reviews, I don't believe this was the best TV show ever. I LOVE Denis Leary and was happy with his part in the show, but I can't say the same about the other actors. For it to be strictly a comedy show I was disappointed. It just wasn't that funny... The small amount of episodes are worth viewing, but possibly not worth watching over again. Best to go with Rescue Me.
