Rizzoli & Isles: Season 4

I own every episode. This is a buy item, no rent, good enough to watch several times over. Finally a US cop show on the level of all the great Brit stuff. Hope it runs for a decade. Tess Garritsen is the novel author behind the beginning of "Rozzoli & Isles" as well as credited for writing the series. Jane Tamaro is producer and writer of the series. That's a combo as good as the two female leads. Women's ability in the acting and creative areas are making this one of the best shows on TV/DVD from America. A super fantastic cop show taking place in the alleys, parking garages, streets, and fine places of beautiful Boston. But the crime is as ugly as the city is beautiful. And speaking of beauty, the 2 protagonists are hot. Angie Harmon plays Det. Jane Rozzoli the tough, sexy, sometimes sweet, sometimes funny murder investigator who takes on some bad boys and gets herself into dire straights. She has the scars to prove it, but the figure of a goddess. Her partner in crime, solving that is, comes in Medical Examiner Dr. Maura Isles, played by the equally gorgeous Sasha Alexander. She's loaded with nerdy trivia, which annoys Rozzoli, but gets the job done. She has nerves of iron and also injects many comic moments. It's a fine balancing act of suspense and comedy in a mystery crime show that works great. Other cast members come into their own in different episodes. It is a series that has created a fine cast that quickly feels like family. Everyone has a history with a bit of a dark side as well as some fine personal moments. Lorraine Bracco is Ma Rozzoli, a generation older but yet a looker and doer. Her son Frankie Jr. (Jordan Bridges) is a Boston foot cop. Two other members of the murder squad are Det. Frost (Lee Thompson Young) who hates gore and Det. Korsak (Bruce McGill) older and wiser. They all appear each episode and play an important role. Subtitles available for all Episodes: We are Family In Over Your Head But I am a Good Girl Killer in High Heels Dance with the Devil Somebody's Watching Me All For One Cold as Ice Judge Jury and Executioner Partners in Crime Tears of a Clown Don't forget there are 3 previous years of Rozzoli & Isles. All good. YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! It's already been renewed for a 5th season.

This show manages to blend the dark side of life with positive counter balance. It takes me back to kind of TV I enjoy. This show manages to blend the dark side of life with positive counter balance. It is great to see a show about supportive friendship/family, with its ups & downs, in a way that I can relate to from my experiences with my own friends/life. At times the writers seem to fall back on the standard formula for police drama, but more often than not, the show keeps a realistic balance of positive and negative. Most of the story lines are well written; but I always wonder why it is necessary to always throw in a psychotic killer who keeps making appearances. If less was shown about crazy, psychotic behavior, maybe there might be less of it in real life. Life has many, many stories that can be told without the vicious, vindictive, crazy, characters being the main focus. With all that said, Rizzoli & Isles is positively different enough from many of today's TV shows for me to really enjoy watching. it.

I wondered after Season 3 if the writers could keep bringing sufficient depth to the story lines to keep my interest in S4. It didn't take many episodes for me to know the writers sure can! I actually enjoyed this season more than S3 primarily because the cases they have to solve continue to be involved and Jane and Maura's relationship grows stronger. There is a wonderful chemistry between these two career women: one the Boston cop (Jane) and the other a forensic medico (Maura). They share their lives and families with each other in a way that I admire. The writers continue to pressure the friendship which helps increase it's depth. The support cast add colour and vitality to both the girls friendship and case load. I can't wait for season 5.

Since we have ditched cable, this is the one show I really miss from TNT. It is nice to be able to watch the shows whenever I want, and while I would prefer to have it on instant video, so I wouldn't have to store the discs, this is much less expensive for some reason. There aren't as many episodes on a season as I would like, but I guess all shows are going to less shows each year. Overall, I am happy with this purchase, and would recommend it to anyone who likes a "who done it".

LOVE IT! I LOVE IT! I LOVE IT This is number one in my list of favorite TV shows!. Of course DVD's are better, No commercials! I have liked Angie Harmon since she was a model and also on Law & Order. She is a great actress, and this show shows her comedic talents. Rizzoli & isles play off of each other in a totally believable friendship. I have Seasons 1, 2, and 3, very happy about Season4, can't wait to get it!

The previews that TNT used initially weren't overly interesting and some of the critics gave this new show mediocre ratings. That being said, I'm glad I chose to ignore the critics (as usual) and give this new cop drama a shot. Glad I did. It rolls right along with well written story lines and nice touches of humor here and there to lighten up what could be a very dark premise. I can't rave enough about the casting of Angie Harmon as the tough-talking but occasionally insecure police detective Jane Rizzoli, who's driving ambition and outer roughness bely a compassionate individual who's trying to do the right thing, no matter what. Sasha Alexander is a wonderful breath of fresh air as Maura Isles, the science and medicine half of this dynamic duo. She plays Isles with just the right amount of nerdy quirkiness to make the character endearing and brilliant, without crossing over into annoying know-it-all territory.

Just a fun show to watch. Either you like these two or you don't. Season four was good just as all the other season where. However there is only 16 episode due to one actor dying before finishing the season. Spoiler alert........

benché sia indicata come edizione Francia, in realtà è edizione Canada...Regione del lettore quindi sbagliata e avviso di sicurezza con indicazione che la vendita fuori dal Canada è vietata...boh

This is a brilliant show... the scripts are superb with a great combination of intellectual humour from Maura and 'guys' humour from the guys, with Jane being mostly serious although with some laughs with Maura. Along with the technical brilliance of the scripts, they provide excellent detective stories, and excellent acting. Too bad the idiot tV authorities are ending it after season 7... the scripts beat SVU (at season 17) by a long shot even though they don't have Mariska Hargitay.

Increíble

deux questions: la première concerne le prix, qui a presque triplé depuis mon achat récent? Estce normal? la seconde: il y a des sous-titres français sur ces disques: cela pourrait intéresser des acheteurs qui en souhaitent. Ce n'est pas signalé.Dommage.

These 2 girls are at the top of my list for overall. They are such a great team together. I have all of the seasone of them. I love this show!!! It's really great when you have them all and on crappy days have your own marathon.
