UPN's First Hit Drama Series, Mar 22 2006
By Movie Mania "DVD Collector" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Sentinel: Season 1 (DVD)
The product discription describes this series fairly well. But what it doesn't tell you is that this is an excellent series. Every episode had you on the edge of your seat. This was Richard Burgi's first starring role. The first season was definitely the best.
If you like to collect TV shows that were ahead of its time and therefore, didn't last, this is one to add to your collection.
If you like edgy detective shows, this is one to add to your collection.
If you like breakout performances, this is one to add to your collection.
I will definitely add this to my collection.

My favorite show comes to DVD at last!, April 3 2006

This review is from: The Sentinel: Season 1 (DVD)
I'm thrilled to see that Paramount has finally released my all time favorite show to DVD! This show had a great premise and wonderful, interesting characters with a great rapport. Richard Burgi and Garett Maggart were excellent and made a potentially unbelievable partnership completely engaging. Now everyone can finally see what all the Sentinel fans were so passionate about! Yay! Jim and Blair are coming home!

Good Start, April 26 2006
By Lady Shelley - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Sentinel: Season 1 (DVD)
The Sentinel was one of those fun shows from the late 1990's; fun cop drama with lots of humor. There was some cheesy-ness, but over all it was a good series.
As for the DVD's pictures and sound is superb. Honestly, the picture quality is better than when the series ran on UPN, and the sound, while only being 2 channel is still wide open and fills the room nicely.
However, there are no special features here and no close captioning. Fans know there are blooper reels in existance and I hope for future seasons we see some extras. Commentaries with Richard Burgi, Garett Maggert, and Bruce A Young would be nice as well
