It’s a big week for old ABC shows with small but devoted fan bases, from Less Than Perfect (whose first season is now available) to Boy Meets World (releasing seasons one through three) and The Norm Show (the whole enchilada, which will be reviewed in full here tomorrow). It’s also a big week for one TV show with a large and devoted fan base, namely Prime Suspect, which sees its complete run collected in one fine box set (also to be reviewed here tomorrow). And on a personal note, I’d like to point people to one of my favorite documentaries of the past year, Videocracy, all about the surreal media and political landscape of Italy. And as context for Videocracy, I point you to Devin Friedman’s terrific GQ article about Silvio Berlusconi, “The Mussolini Of Ass.”
