Wings - The Fourth Season DVD Review - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

TJ · 05-04-2007, 01:28 AM

Wings is still flying high, with the Hackett brothers of Sandpiper Air and their friends and co-workers at Tom Nevers Field! From the moment the gang is rescued from the plane crash to the introduction of Alex Lambert, the sexy new love interest for Joe (Tim Daly) and Brian (Steven Weber), life on Nantucket has never been funnier -- or more outrageous! Is neurotic Joe or screw-up Brian going to land Alex? In addition, will Helen (Crystal Bernard) finally see her career take off? This season, Roy Biggins (David Schramm) expresses his musical side, cab driver Antonio (Tony Shalhoub) expresses his sensitive side, and Fay (Rebecca Schull) auditions to play Oprah. Plus, dim-witted Lowell (Thomas Haden Church) ends up living with Joe and Brian – and even dates Helen! This 4-disc set includes all 22 episodes of Wings: The Fourth Season, on DVD for the first time! Fasten your seatbelts...Wings is back and better than ever!

Thanks, TJ. I have my set pre-ordered already, and I'm counting down the days! Season 4 is one of my favorites.

I'm glad that the case matches the first two releases. I assumed it would change over like Happy Days and the others have.

There was no mention in the review about the song "Isn't It Romantic" being in the DVD, so I'll assume it's still there. I only question it because these DVD companies have me so paranoid these days. With that being Joe and Helen's song, it would have wrecked the whole DVD series if they took it out. Looks like they kept it in though, thankfully.

I'm looking forward to this set. This is another season from the golden era of the show (seasons 3-6, with a bit of 7).

I just came back from the Happy Days message board, and the fans are still complaining about how CBS butchered season 2. CBS Paramount owns both Wings and Happy Days, so they can do whatever they please, but I'm sure Wings, Season 4, will be just fine, because CBS doesn't have to deal with a lot of music licensing issues like with Happy Days, Season 2. I'm actually looking for S5's release, but it may not likely happen until sometime this fall.
