Product ReviewsThe Real Housewives of Orange County: Season 1 (DVD, 2006)

Missing DVD?Lost DVD

I bought this dvd from SysQs/SysQsystems on Dec. 4, 2007. They gave it to UPS innovations on Dec. 6, 2007 & according to the tracking number UPS dropped it off at a USPS in St. Louis, Mo. on Dec. 10, 2007. As of Jan. 9, 2008 I still have not received the dvd and no one takes responsibility for what happened to this package. The USPS tells me they have no confirmation that they ever received this package because they say whenever a package enters their facility it is given a 25 digit tracking number and that didn't happen. SysQs/SysQsystems tell me once they give it to UPS it no longer their responsibility and becomes mine. They say it was not insured so I just lost that money and package-too bad. UPS innovations tells me that if I did not receive the package by Dec. 20, then SysQs/SysQsystems is responsible. In any case, I do not have the dvd, I've been charged the amount, and my granddaughter did not get a Christmas present she requested.
Needless to say, I'm very disappointed, very frustrated, and have lost hours going back and forth talking to all parties involved.Read full review...

A couple words from me...to you

Well,I heard for this "documnentary,soap,drama"-don't know how to call it...and I saw a prewiew and I was fascinated how those women from Orange County have everything,all that glamour,easy living..etc...And then I ordered Dvd and get to the conclusion after watching it...I always wanted life like they have,but theyr lifes are not as it seems,they been drinking,party...its not good behaviour for someone whos 40-something...
but still...i can find myself in them i do like them and I took all positive from them for example from Vicki as example that I need to work in my life verry hard to achieve all that glamour,easy living that i crave for...
I just love life...and i like those girls...they make me happy:)Read full review...

Somewhat entertaining.....

I look for DVD's to watch while on the treadmill to make the workout less boring than it is. I think this show is perfect for this purpose. It's not too good that you want to focus on it completely, and it's not so bad that you can't stand watching it under any conditions. It's mindless fun and makes one feel better about their own lives. (Hey, I don't have that kind of money, BUT, I don't have that degree of shallowness either!!!!) If you get a really good buy (I paid a ridiculously low price for this, so do yourself a favor and shop around a bit), then I would recommend it for some good workout entertainment. It is not as funny or "out there" or dramatic as I would have preferred but fun to watch nonetheless.Read full review...

Guilty Pleasure

This DVD set is great! I love the show, and just watched it again over the weekend as a marathon with some friends. So maybe some of the behavior is outrageous, but it just goes to show that money cannot eliminate problems. Maybe they live in mansions and drive Mercedes, and despite the blatant materialism, their humanity is captivating. As the box acknowledges, it's a guilty pleasure, but a pleasure nonetheless!

PS The review by moviegreendog is not about the DVDs at all, merely about the shipping problems experienced!Read full review...

Women With Too Much Free Time

Amusing insight into the lives of vapid, too-much-time-on-their-hands women which (perhaps unintentionally) raises the age-old question: 'Just how much Plastic Surgery is enough'? The Horror! The Horrow! After watching these silly women, I can well understand why some men turn Gay and Lesbians would choose to go straight!Read full review...
