As soon as I found this on Amazon Prime I knew I had to binge this. I was just a kid in the 80s but this was one of those shows that I enjoyed watching. Never mind the fact that it was a lot of adult humor that I was too young to understand, but it was shows like this that had that fun and innocent comedy that even appealed to kids like me. I remember watching this nightly when it went into syndication with its companion show, "That's Incredible" (another lost gem I would like to rediscover).
Prior to reliving my being an audience member the show, the only personalities I remembered were Sarah Purcell, Byron Allen, and Peter Billingsley. As soon as I started watching, I remembered the rest of the cast such as Skip Stephenson, John Barbour, and Fred Willard whom I completely forgot was on the show. I was like, "Oh yeaaaaah. So-and-so was on this show, too!" It felt as if I have seen these actors (among some of the others not mentioned) in a bunch of other things over the years since, but I was surprised to find that (with the exception of Fred Willard), they didn't do a lot gigs since the show. But I tell you. It all seemed like just yesterday that I was watching these people on TV.
Nowadays, audiences would yawn at the material but for me, it was a wonderful trip down memory lane. The nostalgic value alone was enough to keep me smiling throughout my binge.
Thank you to the cast (and production and crew), both living and departed, for holding a place in my memory and my heart and for being a part of this aging guy's life.

I am utterly amazed to see what the box office take for this film was. I know it did not get any promotion prior to its release but even in independent theatres, I would have expected a bigger draw. Nonetheless...
I thought this movie was marvelous. The premise is more than novel, there is a bit of truth to the idea of qualifying and quantifying the human spirit. But not to spiral off on a cosmic tangent, with existential abstractions aside, the idea of the "harvest" and transference of souls from one person to another is intriguing. The story and screenplay was imaginative and geniusly written.
Packed with a star-studded cast whose performances were all brilliant. In usual form, Giamatti delivers both a comical and tragic yet heartfelt performance.
I remember seeing this movie when it first came out on video, and now having just watched it more than ten years later, I was prompted to write this review. When I think about the cost of this production in just talent salaries alone, and I see the box office returns, I wonder what more could have been done to promote this movie better. Not that it would have been a blockbuster, but it surely could have made more money.
Needless to say, this is a truly underappreciated movie and though I won't be watching it again too soon, it is definitely one of those movies I will watch several more times in my life.

I love watching every farming show and documentary that gets produced. Clarkson's Farm is no exception. I've already binged the series 3 times since its release and I'm certain I'll watch it a few more before the year is through. I really hope Clarkson stays on and decides to farm (and film) another year. The people/contributors/characters are all wonderful and I hope to see them all again.
Unlike other farming shows, this one has all the big equipment. I fancy playing Farming Simulator (the video game) and have played it for years. It was exciting to watch the show and see all the farm equipment in action up and close. Though I have never farmed before and my only "experience" was from a video game, it was thrilling to watch Clarkson make the same mistakes I did in a virtual game. Only difference is, he gets the joy from a real experience.
I do have one question though... why doesn't the lady who helped him in the first episode get any IMDB credits? She was very helpful with getting him going and I think she should at least get some recognition.
