NewsRadio - The Complete First & Second Seasons (DVD, 2005, 3-Disc Set)

Dave Foley, Stephen Root|Theatrical release: 1995 | Rating: Not Rated

Movie synopsis

At WNYX, New York's second highest rated news radio station, a cast of strong and idiosyncratic personalities repeatedly clash--yet somehow manage to keep the station afloat. From clueless station owner Jimmy (Stephen Root), to high strung news director Dave (Dave Foley), to high-maintenence anchor team Bill and Catherine (Phil Hartman and Khandi Alexander), to by-the-book producer Lisa (Maura Tierney), and beyond, this office of eccentrics provided a seemingly endless supply of comic situations during the series' five year run on NBC-TV from 1995-1999. This 3-DVD set contains all 29 episodes from the first two seasons.

NewsRadio is an American sitcom

Created: 05/02/08
The series is set at WNYX, a fictional AM news radio station in New York City populated by an eccentric station owner and staff. The show began with the arrival of new news director, level-headed Dave Nelson (Dave Foley). While Dave turns out to be less naive than his youthful appearance suggests, he never fully gained control of his co-workers.

The fast-paced scripts and ensemble cast combined physical humor and sight gags with smart dialogue and absurdist storylines. Plots frequently[citation needed] involved satirical takes on historical events, news stories and pop culture references appealed to a sophisticated, college-educated target audience.

It Cracks Me Up!

Created: 06/12/08
It is been along time ago that I watch NewsRadio, but I still love it and it cracks me up! Phil Hartman is one of my favorite actors who role play the anchor Bill McNeal. Dave Foley play as the news director Dave Nelson who happens to be the out-going boss to be more comfortable of the wacky surroundings at his work.

Created: 13/10/06
one of the best series to air on television. the saddest part about the whole series is that it saw the end of phil hartman. the first 2 seasons were amazing and the dvd brings that to your home

Outstanding 90's sitcom!

Created: 20/03/10
Take the most popular cast members of that generation's SNL and that generation's Canadian SNL (sort of), add a talented character actor, a soon to be uber-annoying media vapor before he was annoying, a trio of talented comediennes, and Joe Rogan and you end up with one of the best sitcoms of the mid-90's. From Larry Sander's Show writer (and future Flight of the Conchord's director) Paul Simms, Newsradio was one of the funniest shows on television at the time it was on. This box set includes classic episodes like Rat Funeral. I'm very happy I bought it. Severely underrated sitcom.

NewsRadio

Created: 07/03/07
I bought NewsRadio- The Complete First and Second Season for two reasons: The show was absolutley AMAZING while it was on, and it is something that you can watch over and over again and NEVER get tired of it. It is perfect for the NewsRadio fan, hence, that is why I LOVE it...
