Summary: Another Serial from the creators of the Classic HOMEFRONT!
Review: I'm sure few people remember SECOND CHANCES, the serial created by Lynn Marie Latham and Bernard Lechowick who also wrote and produced KNOTS LANDING and HOMEFRONT. The serial is set in the sleepy California town of Santa Rita and revolves around the love lives of three women: Diane (Connie Selleca), her sister Kate (Megan Follows), and their friend Melinda (Jennifer Lopez). The first six episodes introduce the characters as well as set up and solve a who-dunnit. The series continued for four more episodes and then was pulled (I seem to remember reading it had something to do with earthquake damage to sets but I could be wrong). The series was retooled and Melinda and her father Sal Lopez were spun off into another serial called HOTEL MALIBU (which is still called SECOND CHANCES here and are the last six episodes on the discs). These last six episodes are as good as I remember them the first time around. Clever writing, witty dialogue, and great casting--especially Romy Walthall who plays Nancy--make this a series that deserved a much longer life. Best off all, most all storylines are resolved so you won't be stuck wondering what happened next. No real extras but it is still a set worth picking up and at a really reasonable price too! Now, would someone PLEASE release HOMEFRONT on dvd?!?!?!?
