Aspect Ratio: 1.33:1Audience Rating: NR (Not Rated) Binding: DVD EAN: 9781417051359 Format: Box set, Color, DVD-Video, Full Screen, NTSC ISBN: 1417051353 Label: National Broadcasting Company (NBC) Languages: Manufacturer: National Broadcasting Company (NBC) MPN: D27837D Number Of Items: 3 Publisher: National Broadcasting Company (NBC) Region Code: 1 Release Date: June 07, 2005 Running Time: 900 minutes Studio: National Broadcasting Company (NBC) Theatrical Release Date: October 03, 1976 Editorial Review: Amazon.com: When Jack Klugman played Oscar Madison in television's "The Odd Couple," it seemed no role could better suit him—until he stepped into the shoes of Dr. Quincy, the stubborn, crusading medical examiner in the trailblazing series (1976-1983) that spawned the medical investigation genre and earned Klugman four Emmy nominations. Immortalized for posterity is this collector's set of the show's first two seasons on three two-sided discs containing 16 episodes (four from Season One; 12 from Season Two). Beginning with the first installment, "Go Fight City Hall--To the Death," the series' socially conscious, quick-paced, and mostly believable storylines are an engaging blend of mystery, sleuthing, sarcasm, and romance stirred together into an action-packed drama. Each episode, such as the award-winning show, "The Thigh Bone's Connected to the Knee Bone," probes contemporary issues and promotes justice while maintaining a healthy dose of humor. A strong supporting cast includes Robert Ito (as Quincy's loyal lab assistant, Sam) and John S. Ragin (as skeptical boss, Dr. Asten). Jamie Lee Curtis makes a cameo appearance in "Visitors in Paradise," while additional celebrity guests include Buddy Hackett, Donna Mills, Kim Cattrall, and June Lockhart. The picture and sound quality are solid and each story begins with a short onscreen synopsis and original airdate. The only deficit in an otherwise stellar effort is the noticeable lack of bonus material such as vintage interviews, a making-of featurette, or a well-deserved tribute to Klugman.

 Rating:  - Excellent. This is NOT a CSI show.I see a lot of comparisons to CSI, but let's face it - Quincy is not that. CSI is an entertaining show, but it's filled with two-dimensional men with bulging muscles, women with low-cut blouses, and labs that are lit with dramatic lighting & lots of pretty decorations. When was the last time you walked into a lab that looks like that?!?!? In a word, CSI is T&A and pretty sets - Shallow. Quincy is all heart. Quincy works in a boring, sterile, white-colored laboratory ...

I believe Season 1 was the best season for Quincy but I like both seasons. It was just what I expected. Mary Rating: - Quincy, M.E. - Seasons 1 & 2Quincy, M.E. was the original CSI. Each show was unique and Quincy always added the personal touch to each crime investigation. I am a big fan of the Quincy TV series and I highly recommend to all those CSI fans that they look into buying seasons 1 and 2. TV charactors like Quincy only come along once in a lifetime.
