I didn't watch this show when it aired - I saw the first two or three episodes then lost interest. But I heard that it got much better later in the season, so I decided to check it out when it came out on DVD. I have to agree that it got much better I the second half of the season. Now, I am watching the second season as it airs.

Saw several random episodes on tv after it went into syndication. Decided to invest in the DVD's and have not been disappointed. It is rare that a sit-com can seem fresh and not appear to try too hard.

What's great about it: makes me laugh - every episode
The debut season of Matthew Weiner's intense and stylish drama follows the lives of Madison Avenue advertising executives (so-called "Mad Men") in 1960. The series centers on Don Draper (Jon Hamm), the dashing and brilliant creative director for ad agency Sterling Cooper (Season 1 accounts include Richard Nixon's presidential campaign and, appropriately, Lucky Strike, given the cigarettes are smoked in nearly every scene). Don's charms extend well outside of the boardroom and into the bedroom: The married man has a free-spirited lover, Midge Daniels (Rosemarie DeWitt), who's his polar opposite, and a second mistress, Rachel Menken (Maggie Siff), a client whose independence challenges Don's views on women. Don's wife, Betty (January Jones), meanwhile, dutifully fulfills her role as housewife. But when she develops a mysterious ailment that causes her to lose feeling in her hands, she's sent to a psychiatrist to work through her problems. Over at Sterling Cooper, new secretary Peggy Olson (Elisabeth Moss) tries to adjust to life in the boys club with guidance from seen-it-all bombshell secretary Joan Holloway (Christina Hendricks). Young account exec Pete Campbell (Vincent Kartheiser) also has his eyes on Peggy and quickly begins pursuing her, despite his upcoming nuptials. There's even more bad behavior at the office from skirt chasers Ken Cosgrove (Aaron Staton) and Paul Kinsey (Michael Gladis), loving but imperfect Harry Crane (Rich Sommer) and stuck-in-the-closet art director Sal Romano (Bryan Batt). Partner Roger Sterling (John Slattery) does little to set an example for his employees as he happily indulges in an array of vices and an affair with Joan. Senior partner Bertram Cooper (Robert Morse) is mostly out of touch with the staff, preferring to remain within the sanctuary of his giant office. In the midst of this workplace frivolity, Don learns that the picture-perfect life he's created for himself could be threatened by a secret from his past.

One of the most beloved and critically acclaimed television series of all time comes to an end in this final season of CHEERS. The classic sitcom ran for 11 seasons and centered on the colorful staff and patrons of the Boston bar "where everybody knows your name." Run by former Red Sox pitcher and ladies' man Sam Malone (Ted Danson), the establishment's ever-present characters include neurotic bar manager Rebecca Howe (Kirstie Alley), salty barmaid Carla LeBec (Rhea Perlman), dimwitted bartender Woody Boyd (Woody Harrelson), barflies Norm Peterson (George Wendt) and Cliff Clavin (John Ratzenberger), pompous psychiatrist Frasier Crane (Kelsey Grammer), and his frosty love interest Lilith Sternin (Bebe Neuwirth). The much watched series finale brings back Diane Chambers (Shelley Long) for a reunion with her old flame, Sam. This collection presents every episode of CHEERS' 11th season. Special Features Keep Case Sensormatic Package Note Multi-Disc Set Full Frame - 1.33 Audio (unspecified) English Runtime 653 Minutes.

Yes, Carrie Underwood is not a great actress, but she can sing well as can the rest of the cast. A great companion piece to the Julie Andrews movie version. Fascinating to compare and contrast the two versions. And the fact that it was performed "live" is quite remarkable.
