About this product

Product Information

Like a cross between TWIN PEAKS and THE GRAPES OF WRATH, HBO's acclaimed television drama CARNIVALE sets an allegorical fable about the mythic battle between good and evil against the surreal backdrop of a Depression-era traveling circus. Having lost both his farm and his mother to the 1930s Dust Bowl, prison escapee Ben Hawkins (Nick Stahl, IN THE BEDROOM) joins an itinerant carnival in a desperate bid to escape poverty, the police, and his own discomfort with his miraculous healing powers. Ben's story is juxtaposed with that of California preacher Justin Crowe (Clancy Brown, THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION), whose evangelical ministries with his sister, Iris (Amy Madigan), take on increasingly sinister overtones and hint at an eventual confrontation between himself and young Hawkins through the mysterious figure of former circus showman and WWI veteran Henry Scudder (John Savage). As the main story arc builds to its apocalyptic showdown, the series takes dramatic detours into the daily lives of the carnival denizens. Lorded over by the unseen "Management" and a dwarf named Samson (TWIN PEAKS' Michael J. Anderson), the ragtag collection of sideshow freaks includes the blind soothsayer, Lodz (Patrick Bauchau); the bearded lady, Lila (Debra Christofferson); the snake charmer, Ruthie (Adrienne Barbeau); the troubled fortuneteller, Sophie (Clea DuVall); her catatonic mother, Apollonia (Diane Salinger); the wounded former-baseball player-turned-roustabout, Jonesy (Tim DeKay); and a family of strippers and prostitutes comprised of mother Rita Sue (Cynthia Ettinger), her daughters Libby (Carla Gallo) and Dora Mae (Amanda Aday), and their pimp-like father, Stumpy (Toby Huss). Creator Daniel Knauf surrounds this impressive cast with impeccable period-piece production design, a rotating roster of directorial talent that includes Alison Maclean (JESUS' SON) and Rodrigo Garcia (son of magical-realist writer Gabriel Garcia Marquez), and innovative storytelling that is at once supremely creepy, intellectually provocative, and emotionally gripping. This collection includes all 12 episodes of the series' highly addictive first season.

    Good value, but not perfect.

    I loved to watch this series when it was on HBO years ago and thought I'd like to see it again. For the price you can't go wrong. but these are copies and you get what you pay for. The first dvd keep stopping and jumped ahead of the story when it started up again. The rest of the discs played ok with no problems. So if you liked the show on TV, this will be a good refresher of the very interesting characters.

  • Something old

    I had only heard about this series, found it on sale and decided to buy it. I did not get into it at first but, it fascinated me. I am not a person of that erra but have worked for people who lived through the depression. I found that it was refreshing to watch something out of character of today's times. How people struggled, went without and it brought out the best in some to share and the worst to rob and hurt others. I found only a couple of flaws which interest me. In a scene where a young woman was being raped her blouse was ripped and she had a lime green comfort cut bra. Back in those days they wore strictly white underware and were very much coned shaped bras. And colored vehicles did not come in play till 1940's. So many of the colored vehicles shown were painted props. But the ...

  • A phenomenal show of strange players in the battle between light and dark.

    Carnivale is an awesome show about the ongoing battle between light and darkness set during the American dust bowl. The scions of light and darkness are an escaped murderer with the power to heal those he touches by blighting his surroundings and a devout preacher plagued by dark, old testament miracles. Their roles are purposefully left ambiguous in the beginnings of this fascinating series as we see them developing in a world of freaks and the downtrodden. The acting is remarkable, with a wide array of conflicted characters constantly struggling against the weight of hard times and the palpable threat of genuine evil. The story is well paced and character-focused. The soundtrack is a dark reflection of traditional carnival fair and apocalyptic at the same time. I cannot recommend ...

  • I wish HBO would stop canceling good TV!

    All the good shows that once dominated HBO are gone ladies and gentlemen. This was the crowning gem of them all. Forget the Sopranos! CARNAVALE had it all, sex, drama, violence, love; it was everything a viewer could hope for and more! What an amazing show! Thank god for the DVD format as early cancellation took this compelling plot driven masterpiece off the air, leaving a void in the HBO line up that only ROME could fill. And even that show was given an early grave due to production costs. It was certainly NOT for lack of viewers! What can I say? Shows like the Sopranos are cheap to produce as compared to the period piece that CARNAVALE was. Rooted in the era of the Great Depression, the show followed a small time circus troop that traveled small town America in the 1920’s. Visually ...

  • Very entertaining!

    I never got the chance to see this when it came out. My wife and I both like dramas/mysteries with a supernatural twist. But the story needs to be carried by good writing and not by the actors doing out of character behavior just for the shock value. Luckily, Carnival is the former. I just wish that it had lasted for more than two sessions.
