DVD Review: Magikano: The Complete Series
This show from 2006 can best be described in two words: Fan Service. Lots and lots of fan service. With a dash of plot. The show revolves around the Yoshikawa family (Haruo, Maika, Chiaka, and Fuyuno) and a witch named Ayumi Maniya, who is tasked with lifting a curse that had been put upon her by “making a man” out of Haruo and arousing his latent powers. This show is definitely not for children.

DVD Review: Scrubs Season Eight
When NBC announced that they would not be renewing Scrubs for another season, most of us thought that would be it for the show. To our surprise, ABC was kind enough to pick up the comedy and allow it to continue its quirky storytelling…but with a few budget cut backs. While we did lose a few of the secondary characters, the show was joined by a new set of interns that fit in very well with the original cast…. The show came back and was the best that it had been in years. Now you can catch up on the most recent antics since the Complete Eighth season of Scrubs is now available on DVD!
DVD Review: The Simpsons Season 12
BEST. DVD COLLECTION. EVER.
One night in April of 1987, my brother Dan insisted that the whole family stop whatever we were doing to watch some show I’d never even heard of called The Tracey Ullman Show. One of us must have grumbled about it, because he launched into a defensive explanation immediately.
DVD Review: Death Note, L change the WorLd
The Death Note franchise takes on the question of what L did with his last 23 days. Of course this storyline is unique to the live action series, not the manga or anime series. Death Note: L change the World is fun, fantastic, full of action and lots and lots of L being L.

DVD Review: Kaze no Stigma, Volume 2-Fire
Highlights
The second and final volume of Kaze No Stigma provides 12 episodes that do help tie the series together but at the same time leaves us wondering… why? The first 5 episodes cover the budding relationship between Kazuma and Ayano. Or should I say, the goofy ways Ayano's Father try to get them together. They also introduce the new character, Katherine McDonald, who is also a Fire user from America out to prove that her family is tops in the Fire world.
DVD Review: Jinki: Extended, The Complete Series
