CSI: New York – The Complete Second Season (Paramount)
Gary Sinese stars in CSI:NY. Nice to see the franchise hire on such a talented actor. After hiring David Caruso for the Miami show, I was a little worried they might go with Steven Segal for the Big Apple.

Starsky & Hutch: The Complete Fourth Season Five-disc set with 22 episodes, $49.95. (Sony).
At the time, they were so cool. Starsky had the best car. Looking back, the show’s early 70s style is more than a little humorous. Still far better than the horrific movie with Stiller and Wilson.
