"...and that's why the French don't bathe."

Granted, it's not "Duckman", but another fine 90s sitcom is hitting DVD, at long last: "The Drew Carey Show": Season 1 streets in April.

It's easy to mock this show, given how far it flew off the rails in its last few years, but, in its first few seasons, it was damn funny; shorn of the gimmicks and stupidity that would later destroy it. It was one of those rare shows that hit its stride early on instead of taking a few years. The first season is full of fine moments: the classic "Buzz Beer", Kevin Pollak as Mr. Bell, attorneys Fenn and Geller (no points for guessing who played them), Jamie Lee Curtis as Sioux...April can't get here fast enough, and since I celebrate a birthday in that month, it's doubly tortuous.
