DVD Review: Zorro- The Complete First and Second Seasons
In 2001, to honor Walt Disney's 100th birthday, the studio teamed up with film critic/historian Leonard Maltin to release a series of "Treasures" of early works culled from their extensive archives. Each subject gets a deluxe DVD set in a fancy tin case, with little collectibles and a numbered certificate of authenticity. Each set is introduced by Maltin who explains a little of the history and context of the presentation, and includes a disc of extras relating to the "making of" and background info. Three or four titles get the treatment on a roughly annual basis, and now they have worked their way up to Zorro- The Complete First and Second Seasons.

DVD Review: Gabriel Iglesias “I’m Not Fat… I’m Fluffy” Live From El Paso
Gabriel Iglesias may be another example of an "overnight success" years in the making. Just now starting to achieve broad popularity, the comedian has been performing since 1997, first in small clubs in Southern California where he grew up, then larger venues around the southwest, eventually getting invites to do small bits on specials and shows like Late Late, Kimmel, and eventually Leno. He was already well established by the time he appeared on Last Comic Standing where he did well before being disqualified for BlackBerrying his longtime grirlfriend on his status.
DVD Review: Medium The Fifth Season
Medium (based on experiences of real-world psychic Allison DuBois) premiered in January of 2005 to strong numbers and garnered its star Patricia Arquette a Best Actress in a Drama Series Emmy. It has since survived scheduling chaos, moving from Monday to Wednesday and then back to Monday, And now with the current season, it's jumped to Friday and it's jumped from NBC to CBS, where it's been filmed all along. Fans like us at ComicsOnline are hoping that this will lend some stability and allow Medium to continue for another five seasons.
