Special Features
The Deleted Episode – ‘State of the Parties’ - With introduction by creator Jon Robin Baitz Creating The Walker Family Tree The Making of Brothers & Sisters Behind the Scenes with the Brothers - Exclusive set tour with stars Balthazar, Dave and Matthew The Family Business - Meet the Olins, A real family behind the success of this all-new popular TV family Bloopers, Deleted Scenes & Audio Commentaries

Synopsis
BROTHERS AND SISTERS is centered on the lives of the Walkers, a Californian family who lead seemingly idyllic lives--until the death of their patriarch William Walker (Tom Skerritt) unearths some unpleasant truths and long-hidden secrets. The aftermath of William’s death resonates throughout the first series, as his wife, Nora (Sally Field), comes to terms with the revelation of her husband’s infidelity. Their five children, gay lawyer Kevin (Matthew Rhys), Afghanistan war vet and recovering drug addict Justin (Dave Annable), working mother Sarah (Rachel Griffiths), staunch Republican Kitty (Calista Flockhart), and businessman Tommy (Balthazar Getty) also struggle with increasingly strained relationships, running the family business - Ojai Foods, and the realisation that their father was just as flawed and dysfunctional as they are. The show's attempt to explore what it means to be a family in the 21st century is imbued with an engaging mix of humour and drama.

5.0 out of 5 stars Affluent Waltons for the Noughties, 25 Mar 2008
By S Sage (Dorset, UK) - See all my reviews
This series is great American TV drama. It has classic family themes (fidelity, deception, honesty, humour, love) but also sweeping contemporary ones (war, politics, drugs, homosexuality) all wrapped together in delicious, glamorous, layered, entertainment. With a heartwarming core and beautiful packaging, I used to sit down every Sunday night knowing I was going to be transported to a glamorous sunny location and returned home afterwards, amused, moved and thoroughly entertained.

All the episodes can be enjoyed independently but hang together really well so very definitely worth buying the set. I recommend it!

4.0 out of 5 stars One of the best dramas to come from the US, 2 Jan 2008
By Ms. H. Scammell "Primary_Colours" (Chester, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I wasn't sure what to expect when I first watched this program but being a fan of Desperate Housewives, and having seen Sally Field in films before I thought I would give it a chance. I certainly wasn't expecting what I saw though, it did not take long to get sucked in and I was pleasantly blown away with the whole story. Each character having their own storyline, and each as indepth as one another, everyone took to the spotlight so well. Every epsiode is full of laughter and tears. It was a treat to behold, unfortunately I didn't manage to catch the end of the series, so this is a must in my DVD collection. Well worth the watch!

5.0 out of 5 stars Brothers and Sisters - Season One, 11 Oct 2008
By N. Wilson "nigel-wilson" (Bristol, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
I am not much of a television fan, in fact I don't actually own one! Therefore I generally come across television classics by word-of-mouth and then go find out for myself what the fuss is all about. I also have a guilty secret of only really bothering with television shows which feature a gay character or storyline.

"Brothers and Sisters" came to my attention thanks to a rave review and interesting article in popular gay magazine Attitude. And since the series features a gay character (and it's great reviews) I decided to download the first episode to see what I thought.

And what I thought was- I must go out straight away and get the box set!

I am more than pleasently suprised to find that "Brothers and Sisters" is actually quite a remarkable, catchy and addictive drama series, which is warm, loving, humourous and a pleasure to watch. The series stands out largely because of it's fantastic storyline which unravels and develops in almost a murder mystery type fashion - it's marvolous to watch!

As the story develops and continues, the show promises viewers a fantastic ride which takes us deeper and deeper into the multilayered and interlinking stories found within this spectacular show.

The acting, I must confess, on behalf of the two leading ladies, does at first come off to be a little wooden- but I have warmed to this performance style and indeed also been quite taken by just about every character and their quirky ways. They are a fantastic portrayal of a large family, and it's really enjoyable to see the bonds between them all.

The show frequently also tugs on my heart strings, and I think this feeling could be universal- many episodes I find a tear coming to my eye, one or two had me sobbing! This is then contrasted by the soft humour and irony seen within the series which gives the audience a balanced and pleasurable viewing experience.

If you're looking to be submerged into a fantastic story and looking for characters which are loveable (and certainly in my case, often very familier), then "Brothers and Sisters" is definatly a series for you to enjoy, and I recommend it without reserve.

10/10
