Summary: Finally on DVD!!!
Review: When I found out this was coming to DVD, I was so excited I just couldn't believe it. The acting, on-screen chemistry, directing, and everything else about this show is simply perfect.At the end of an episode, you'll be left itching to see the next. Throughout the unnecessarily short two seasons of the series, the characters actually develop and change - so much so that you'll be terribly saddened to bid them farewell after such a short time together. Thanks to DVD, however, a whole new group of people will be able to experience what has to be one of the best, most overlooked television shows ever, and those that were privileged enough to see it the first time will be able to relive it. It's just unfortunate it had to end so soon.

Summary: Do it. Just buy it. You won't regret this.
Review: "The Apology" is one of the finest episodes of television ever. The show is excellent, the characters are well drawn, accessible. The show is funny and full of spirit and life. Do yourself a favor and spend some quality time with the fine folks at Sports Night.

Summary: Why Television Was Invented
Review: It doesn't matter if this DVD collection contains even one additional word from when the series aired on ABC -- this is an incredible price for two years of brilliance and I'd gladly pay more (but don't take that literally, Amazon). "Sports Night" was funny, sexy, smart and had heart. It was Aaron Sorkin at his best. It was ABC's decision-making at its worst. I miss this show terribly and can't wait to own the DVD.

Summary: The Smartest Sitcom, Ever!
Review: Alright, when Sports Night first came out I automatically never gave it a chance since, at the time I hated sports. I remember watching it at least 4 times, and laughing, but never really relating to the jokes. Then I remember when it first came out on Comedy Central and I told my mom ...that it was back on the air, but I still didn't watch it. But now that I am older and I come home later, since it is now on at 3:30 in the a.m. where I live, I look so forward to watching every episode every night. It is so smart, and witty, ..., I love it!

Summary: Sports Night is one of the finest.
Review: I don't know who couldn't like this show, it's comedy at it's finest. The acting is brillant, the direction is superb, and the writing is emmy worthy. Thank god we're finally getting on DVD, and the entire series, and even for a decent price as well. I love this show, and you owe it to yourself to pick it up.

Summary: This is worth every penny!!
Review: ...this show was clever, fast paced, and filled with emotion and heart. It was created and written by the creator/writer of The West Wing and you'll find the same quick tempo here as well. This is one of my top 10 favorite shows of all time. It was very sad to see it end after two seasons, but now to finally have a chance to own both seasons in one DVD box set is just extraordinary!! Buy and enjoy! :-)

Summary: Overlooked gem
Review: "SportsNight" is one of the two or three best televlsion shows of the last decade, unfortunately cancelled due to phenomenally incompetant handling by ABC, who not only mis-marketed it (trying to make it look like a "Spin City" clone) but fumbled its airings (pulling it for a month at a stretch; airing few re-runs, keeping new fans from getting caught up; playing "Drew Carey" re-runs in its slot during sweeps, then wondering why it couldn't get ratings). It's short life on the air is a shame, since it was a true original, featuring dynamite performances and smashing writing by "West Wing" creator/writer Aaron Sorkin, whose brisk, sharp dialogue style was developed to perfection here. Of course dunces like the first reviewer on this page didn't get it, because it was not a conventional sit-com. Just as "West Wing" is a drama with some truly funny moments, "Sports Night" was a comedy with an emphasis on character and conflict, rather than the easy set-up/punchline. It also contained beautifully played moments of high drama as moving as anything on any "ER" or "Law & Order". Kudos to Buena Vista for releasing this excellent show on disc, where (hopefully) the viewers who have embraced "West Wing" can take a second look at Sorkin's first foray into series television.

Summary: Great show!!
Review: I have to disagree with the other review. This show is one of the best that I have seen in the past 10 years. The 90's version of M.A.S.H. because it is just that good!!!

Summary: Sorkin's 'Sport's Night': Even better than 'The West Wing'.
Review: Sports Night is one of those shows where one moment you're trying to figure it out and the next you're wondering why you didn't watch it to begin with, before it was canceled. (Thanks to ABC) I have NEVER seen a show so smart, yet funny... so charming, yet heart warming. I am SO glad this show is coming to DVD and I don't even know what the extras are yet. "Six Feet Under" star Peter Krause is one of the main characters but my favorite character is Jeremy, played by an amazing actor by the name of Joshua Malina. I plan on watching this box set over and over again because of the high replay value it has and I hope you do too. Highly Recommended!!

Summary: It's about time
Review: For all you Sports Night fans, the DVD is finally available. This compilation has the complete two seasons broadcast originally on ABC. The show, for anyone who doesn't know, was written and produced by Aaron Sorkin (who also writes The West Wing). It was voted one of the Best Shows on TV by TV Guide in 1999 and contains some of the best dialogue I've seen presented on TV. I highly recommend the show and the DVD for anyone who enjoys quality television.
