Scruples 'On-Demand' DVD-R
Since people seem to be reviewing other formats of this series, I wanted to make sure people knew I was reviewing the recently released mini-series 'on-demand' by Warner Bros. I was leery at first of buying DVD-R because, as a rule, they are easy to scratch and generally more fragile than glass pressed, mass produced DVD's. Sadly, my fears were realized when my copy of 'Scruples' arrived and disc one started stalling and skipping half way through. Indeed, it seemed to be scratched (even though it was a NEW copy). So, I am sending it back and getting another one. My other fear was quality, but this was quickly dispelled. Read on.
I have to say that other than the technical difficulty, the quality of this DVD is excellent. Video is crisp and sharp and sound is good (for a mono 1980 miniseries). The series itself stands the test of time and is as good as always. Of course, we're talking Judith Krantz, so it is as sappy and cheesy as you can expect it to be. The discs...
Lindsay Wagner keeps you interested and entertained.
This mini-series based on the popular novel is pure escapist fantasy.Lindsay Wagner somehow makes it feel real.She has the ability to keep you focused on her without overacting.She is a star....This material is saved by her and has her alone to thank for it's success. If you are a fan of lindsay's you will love this, if not, you will have trouble with the plot and frivolity. I loved it! Again, the producers should be very happy with Lindsay's excellent acting.
pure fun
I love this miniseries. All of the characters are developed so well.And Lindsey Wagner is so believable as the elegant and beautiful Billy Ikehorn.I also loved Marie France Pisier and Barry Bostwick.Buy this tape it isn't trashy but very well made.
