Melanie’s boyfriend, Derwin, is the new third-string wide receiver for the San Diego Sabers. While Derwin worries about the plays on the field, Melanie learns about the power plays that NFL wives use to get their men the best agents, managers, endorsements, merchandising deals and even the “in” charity.

I love this show! I'm a huge fan. I love the story line, excellent writers, captivating acting! I'm glad they show it on BET, however, myself and ALL of my peers would love to see new episodes! We all agree that we relate to the characters because they are in our age group and experience what we experience; similar to what the show "Soul Food" did for my colleagues who are a little bit more "mature" than myself. Does anyone one know how we can get this show back on the air?! Who do we need to beg?! I'm so happy that the DVD is FINALLY going to be available for us to purchase! I can honestly say that I KNOW for a FACT that this DVD set is going to make huge sales! After watching just 1 episode, I was hooked (not in a bad way)! Please bring our show back, Ladies night is not the same without it! Our boyfriends and husbands even watch it. It's so much I have to say about this show because it's truly a favorite of mine and all of my friends.

One Tree Hill: The Complete Seventh Season (2009) Review

One Tree Hill: The Complete Seventh Season (2009)

One Tree Hill remains one of the best shows on television even in it's seventh season and with the departure of Hilarie Burton and Chad Michael Murray.
It's fourteen months into the future and the season starts with a scandal that could derail Nathan's (James Lafferty) basketball career. Brooke (Sophia Bush) continues her work at Clothes Over Bros, along with her mother, Victoria (Daphne Zuniga) whom she had just reconnected with at the end of season 6. She also deals with her bumpy romance with Julian (Austin Nichols) who becomes a regular this season. Haley (Bethany Joy Galeotti) dives back into her music career and Millicent (Lisa Goldstein) spirals out of control as the season progresses, ruining her relationship with Mouth (Lee Norris), who eventually begins a small romance with Lauren (Allison Munn) after Skills (Antwon Tanner) leaves town for a job. Finally, Dan (Paul Johannson) is now the host of his own talk show, with Rachel (Danneel Harris) as his wife. Newcomers include Alex (Jana Kramer), an actress who has her eyes on Julian. Also new in town are Clay (Robert Buckley), Nathan's agent and Quinn (Shantel Vansanten), Haley's sister, who's just left her husband and has a passion for photography, Miranda (India de Beaufort) Haley's new sassy manager and Grubbs, the new bartender at Tric with a secret talent that has nothing to do with mixing drinks.
Other guest stars during the season include Taylor James (Lindsey Mckeon), who first appeared in season 2, as well as Kate Voegele, Stephen Colleti, Bess Armstrong (Haley's mother), Mitch Ryan (Brooke's model, Alex), Gregory Harrison and Amanda Schull (as Clay's wife & stalker tennis player Katie).
All in all, the season stays true to the show and continues to impress with fresh, funny and many times emotional and dramatic storylines that made the show the hit it is.
Don't miss out on this season. Even though Hil and Chad are gone, it's still staying strong without them.

The journeys of those who hail from the town of Tree Hill have been vast, from Nathan and Haley's first kiss to marriage, a son and, most recently, Nathan's return to the basketball court; from Brooke's dedication to her clothing line, Clothes over Bros, to opening herself to the possibility of love with Julian; and from Mouth's battle to win back Millie to Dan's battle to win back his family -- and his life. Now in its seventh season, One Tree Hill continues to explore the journeys of its beloved characters, while seamlessly introducing new favorites. As the series jumps ahead 14 months, these new relationships infuse the history of Tree Hill and change the lives of those who live there. Through it all, these friends and family members realize that life always leads you right where you belong.

90210: The Complete Second Season Review

90210: The Complete Second Season
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
If there is one thing the CW does succeed at, it's killing thier shows before they're off the ground. Gossip Girl was unable to sustain the spark of it's initial first season and even veteran shows like One Tree Hill, Smallville, and Supernatural peaked long before they even appeared on the CW network. And now 90210 can be added to that list of one-trick-pony shows.
In all fairness, 90210 began to go downhill towards the end of the first season. Annie and Naomi's love/hate relationship got far too tedious, the friendships and relationships changed at such a rapid pace it got confusing and Silver's bi-polar storyline was too extreme. So Rebecca Rand Kirshner was brought in to clean the show up for it's sophmore season and boy, what a job she did. If the show was dying last year, it was dead on arrival by this season's premier.
Season Two follows the aftermath of Season One's dramatic finale. Annie is secretly dealing with the guilt of killing a homeless man while the rest of her friends (and even her brother) have kept their distance from her for one reason or another. Most of the school hates her for ratting out the party (subsequently forcing them to take summer school), Naomi is furious at her for "sleeping with Liam" while Silver and Adrianna choose to believe the worst about her, taking Naomi's side over her's. The rest of the season plays out pretty much the same. Relationships (romantic and otherwise) change around contanstly while everyone deals with personal drama of their own such as drugs, death, stalkers, and villainous family members.
The storylines are tired and cliche and every single relationship has been tinkered with (most not for the better). At the same time, every character recieved a massive character change (once again, not for the better) at the hands of Kirshner. Annie is dark and self destructive; season one's fearless Liam is a pathetic coward, unable and unwilling to put an end to Annie's torment; Naomi is more evil and despicable then ever while Dixon becomes television's worst brother. The most dramatic changes however are done to season one fan favourites Silver and Adrianna. Reformed bad girl and arguably the most likable character of 90210's freshman season (atleast in the latter half) is turned into a superficial, self absorbed teeanger. Spunky, original Silver on the other hand loses all or her originality in her transformation as a Naomi clone, a transformation Kirshner found neccessary in moving forward their unexplicable friendship.
Just looking at the DVD cover art, it's obvious who the stars of 90210 are in her mind. Leading lady Annie is practically a guest star in her own show while Naomi and Liam's shallow love affair is the season's central story. This is the root of the season's problem as Naomi is a terrible main character. No effort is made to make Naomi likable, if anything she is worse then ever. It's hard to get behind and root for a character that is plotting revenge at every turn.
Watching Season Two of 90210 is like sunbathing on a California beach. Momentarily enjoyable but ultimately results in nothing gratifying in substance or pleasure.
