"E.R.: The Complete Sixth Season"
Reviewer:
Wayne Klein
Studio: Warner Home Video
Genre: TV-Series
Release:
12/19/06
Special Features: Deleted scenes, gag reel
Review:

My God it's hard to believe this show is still chugging away. "E.R." hit its peak during the sixth season. Staring with the punny first episode "Leave It To Weaver" in which Kerry Weaver was the focus of the episode to "The Peace of Wild Things" where Benton isn't sure he wants to take a DNA test to determine if Reese is actually his son the show continue to operate at full strength. In "Be Still My Heart" a Valentine's episode Dr. Carter and Lucy are stabbed by a psychotic patient and in the follow up the staff struggle to save their lives. All in all it's just another season working the unpredictable Emergency Room in Chicago. "E.R." certainly deserved all the kudos it had earned up to this point and continued to win over new audience members with its complex, multi-layered storylines. ---

Image & Sound:

As with the previous seasons "E.R." looks quite good in its DVD presentation. Detail is sharp and colors nicely reproduced. Luckily Warner Home Video has a chapter directly after the opening titles making it convenient to skip this section as you watch the series. The audio has nice presence with crisp, clear dialog. You'll be able to hear every word of the medical jargon thrown around in this series like confetti at a party. There's a nice balance between dialog, music and sound effects. ---

Special Features:

As the series has progressed and been released on DVD we've got fewer and fewer extras. That's the case here as well with just the gag reel and deleted/extended scenes. While a couple of commentary tracks would have been welcome most fans that have already purchased the first five seasons will be purchasing this set as well so there's no extra added incentive for Warner to put additional special features on the set. ---

Final Words:

One of the show's finest seasons, "E.R." kept cruising right into its sixth season with plenty of conflict and suspense. This terrific set may be light on extras but the audio/visual aspect of the series continues to look quite good.
