Just Shoot Me: The Complete 3rd Season Review
Best Price :$39.95
What is truly surprising about this set isn't that Sony finally resumed releasing season DVDs of Just Shoot Me! (after a five year hiatus due to low sales of the previous set) with the release of The Complete Third Season, but that the studio has again done the show and the fans proud by releasing it as yet another quality DVD release. All 25 wickedly witty Season 3 episodes are digitally remastered and unedited. The restored footage never ceases to amaze. The packaging is solid with especially nice and inspired artwork - two slimcases each designed like Blush covers featuring the cast and episode titles on the front - inside a slim outer box with cast photoshoot style cover art. On the back of each slimcase is a list of the episodes followed by a brief plot description. Discs 1 & 2 contain: Episodes 1-17 and Disc 3 contains: Episodes 18-25. The 3-disc (551 min.) set features Full Frame (1.33:1) video, English Dolby Surround audio, Closed Captioning for the hearing impaired.
Guest stars include: Ana Gasteyer ("Saturday Night Live"), J.P. Manoux ("ER"), Steve Carell ("The Office"), French Stewart ("3rd Rock From The Sun"), Mark Hamill ("Star Wars Trilogy"), David Cross ("Mr. Show"), Brian Dennehy ("Cocoon"), Tyra Banks ("The Fresh Prince of Bel Air"), Willie Garson ("Sex and the City"), David Clennon ("Thirtysomething"), Neal McDonough ("Boomtown"), Jere Burns ("Dear John"), Rebecca Romijn ("X-Men Trilogy"), Kenny Johnson ("The Shield") and more.
No doubt Sony debated long and hard over the release of Just Shoot Me! - The Complete Third Season. Fans will delight in the first-rate treatment the studio has given this release, despite the lack of extras. If sales are good for JSM! - Season Three, then Sony should release subsequent seasons (with the same quality care as the first two sets) with a better release timeframe between sets. Until then, enjoy yet another quality JSM! season set filled with brilliantly funny episodes.
Highly Recommended!

Just Shoot Me: The Complete 3rd Season Specifications
Just Shoot Me: The Complete Third Season continues the situation comedy's irresistible premise about a politically progressive writer taking an unlikely position as staff journalist at her father's glitzy fashion magazine for women. While Maya (Laura San Giacomo) still attempts to maintain her principles and dignity at an office full of supermodels and shallow designers, life goes on at the vibrant and sexy journal. There are no changes in the cast or among major characters from the previous two seasons of Just Shoot Me, allowing for both continuity and building on existing relationships. Maya's connection to her father, Jack (George Segal), is still rocky as the publisher can't seem to transcend his superficial view of her while fretting that he isn't taken seriously in the business world as an important CEO or among his staff as a regular guy. Maya's relationship with photographer Elliot (Enrico Colantoni) is both sweetening and deepening, though not to the extent that a romantic relationship is in the offing--yet. Nina (Wendie Malick) still confounds as a former fashion icon grappling with middle age, and Dennis Finch (David Spade), Jack's assistant, is still trying to be taken seriously as an adult. Season highlights include the opener, "What the Teddy Bear Saw," in which Dennis' weekend of lust with Jack's babysitter (Ana Gasteyer) turns out to have been caught on a nanny-cam tape. In "Steamed," Maya discovers the extent to which Jack will manipulate her to get his way when he sends her to convince a political reformer, who works above the magazine's offices, to give up space for a supposed daycare center. (In fact, Jack has no intention of opening a day care center.) "Two Girls for Every Boy" is a very funny story in which Dennis goes to great, great lengths to enact a fantasy of watching Maya have sex with a female model, having no idea the two women are putting him on. Dennis similarly develops some steam in "Maya's Nude Photos," in which Maya takes a photography class and is assigned to take a nude self-portrait. The episode is really about her growing trust with Elliot, who initially pans her class instructor but then realizes the assignment is important to her. The season ends on a delightful two-parter, in which Dennis, incredibly, strikes up a romance with a supermodel (Rebecca Romijn) on a relationship rebound, and genuinely comes to care for her. --Tom Keogh

The Long Wait Ends! Season Three Rox! - Mr. Sinister - El Cajon, CA USA
In the time it took between the release of Seasons 1 & 2 and Season 3, I could have constructed these DVDs myself. I don't know what the problem was, and frankly, I don't care. I finally have another installment of Just Shoot Me to watch. Season 3 starts off with Finch (Spade) getting caught romping with Jack's daughter's nanny on a Nanny Cam hidden in a teddy bear. Hysterical. Over-the-top. There are so many great episodes in this season. Slow Donnie, where Elliott's brother Donnie is pretending to be retarded but keeps trying to pick up on Maya. The episode where Maya is convinced her new boyfriend (French Stewart, Harry from 3rd Rock) is sending her messages from his children's show through the puppets he uses. The one where Mark Hamill follows Finch around the office for a few days, bugging him to death about what he does, just to prove a psycho-fan point. And the two-part season ender where Finch toys with an emotially-vulnerable supermodel (Rebeca Romijn) to impress on old high school acquaintance and ends up marrying her when he realizes this is the best his ife could ever get. I could go through every one, but I won't. It is hysterical. Hilarious. Cutting humor and quick dialogue. Still fresh as the day it was shot. Now hopefully Season 4 will be here before I have to use bifocals to watch it. Awesome TV! Cannot go wrong.
DIG IT!!!!!!!!!!!!
great classic TV series. Full of laughs - Sparky - Colorado
This was a great TV series. It is guaranteed to make you laugh. Lots of great on-liners. Every character in this series carries their own weight and contributes a lot of humor and entertainment to the entirety of the show.
not as good as season one and two - valerie - connecticut
has several good episodes including the puppet master and the christmas and halloween episodes. unlike season one and two, quite a few episodes in season three are simply not funny at all. still in all i am looking forward to season four being released.
