We have been enjoying the series. The story lines are better than many on today.

Loved the series (one of the half dozen out there evidently ... it was cancelled after two seasons), enjoyed very much the original DVD's, and also enjoying this 10th anniversary set.
Would have given it a higher rating if the commentaries were easier to access ... easy to get to on a DVD player, but not so easy when it's played on a computer.
Sports Night ... True Quality! October 20, 2008

It has been said that the series was based on the sports super team of Keith Olbermann and Dan Patrick during their Sports Center years and when the show premiered in the fall of 1998, I watched `Sports Night' every night of the two seasons that it originally aired, but when it was cancelled in the spring of 2000, I was very upset. There are few television programs that hold the quality that was produced through `Sports Night.' There was a constant level of goodness mixed with a high level of intelligence in every show. Some of my favorite episodes were `The Apology,' `The Hungry and the Hunted,' `The Six Southern Gentlemen of Tennessee,' `Eli's Coming', `Napoleon's Battle Plan,' `Kyle Whitaker's Got Two Sacks,' `Bells and a Siren,' `La Forza del Destino ,' and `Quo Vadimus.' I was given the gift of the original packaging of the series in 2002, but I am joyful that they have decided to update the collection this year. `Sports Night' is a true investment... enjoy every moment!
Sports Night is not about sports September 18, 2008

If you liked "West Wing," you'll like Sports Night (even if you don't like sports). The fatal mistake in the development of Sports Night was probably the title of the series. The best thing about it was also, for some people, probably a weakness: it's not a drama, not a comedy. It doesn't fit any customary category. A typical half-hour espisode is a drama that makes you laugh for 20 minutes because the people in the drama love to make one another laugh (and you laugh with them). And then, in the last 5-10 minutes, it will nail some truth about human beings in a way that will probably bring tears to your eyes. Quite a lot to draw from an insider look at the production of a television program (a program that happens to be about sports). If you never saw Sports Night, you're in for a very special experience.

What has been said thusfar about Sport Night, its intelligence, its innovations and effects on the future of the sitcom are all true. It was an amazing show, one that stood so far out in the pack of shows in that season that you just knew that it was going to be cancelled. The story arc where Josh Charles' character was forced to apologize for remarks he made regarding drug use - brilliant. Just one of many examples that could be sited. Though I was sad to see this show go, in retrospect where would we be without Peter Krausse in Six Feet Under or the promising Dirty Sexy Money or Felicity Huffman's amazing Career. And I wonder if Sabrina Lloyd would have found the time for her work with Hal Hartley. What we are left with is an incredibly tight 2 season set with a beautiful singular vision and execution comparable in quality if not subject matter with Lynch's Twin Peaks. Just like that show, its end was inevitable and beautiful.
