 love it!!! Nov 20, 2009
for anyone who loves smart, surreal, fast-paced tv, this nostalgic gem of a set is a lovely investment (and for anyone who was not a teenager in 1990, prepare to discover a wonderfully weird world :)

Classic Sep 26, 2009
Some folks say Parker Lewis is basically a Ferris Bueller knockoff. It's hard to deny the show seems to have taken at least some inspiration from that film but, it should be noted, that "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" took place almost entirely outside of school whereas "Parker Lewis Can't Lose" takes place almost entirely at school. That's a pretty major difference.
I watched this show with some regularity when it originally aired and enjoyed it quite a lot. Of course, it's hard to know how one will react to a show he last viewed at age 11. As it turns out, PLCL holds up remarkably well. The clothing, hair and myriad catchphrases feel a little dated and gratuitous at times, but none of that detracts from what is, overall, a remarkably well-written and very funny show.
It's hard to know how one who has never seen the show will react to it without the benefit of nostalgia, but I'd warrant they'd enjoy it quite a bit. The pop culture references are often unexpected and hilarious and anyone who doesn't develop a deep affection for the characters by the end of the first disc is one cold-hearted SOB.
I highly recommend this show and I'm ready for the second season.

It's just as funny now as it was then. Sync those swatches - and have Jerry pull out the fax machine so you can fax your friends. Now for the rest of the series...
 Finally, but what is up with NO auto-notification! Aug 19, 2009
This is the 4th DVD I put on an automatic notification by email from Amazon, and the 4th that I didn't recieve notification for. I have been checking Amazon for 5 years for the release of PLCL and I finally stopped and was just waiting for the auto notify. Now it turns out I could have bought the set 8 months ago. Anyway, I am glad I can finally get a decent copy of the show. Yeah!

 still funny(ish) but terrible looking Aug 19, 2009
I haven't watched a dvd that looked this bad for a long time - not sure if it is cheap work from whoever released it or if this was the best quality available to them.
