TV releases range from 'Joey' to 'Judy Garland'
"Numb3rs: The Complete First Season" (CBS/Paramount, 2004-05, not rated, $68.99, four discs). In its first season, this show about using mathematical equations to solve murders had a couple of things going for it that the recent second season lacked the down-to-earth Sabrina Lloyd and David Krumholtz with hair that didn't make him look like a gorgon. Krumholtz is a socially retarded math wiz who works with his FBI-agent brother Rob Morrow, while Judd Hirsch is their wisdom-dispensing father. (The second season was also good, but I miss Lloyd, who just disappears from the last few episodes in this set.)
Extras: Widescreen, 13 episodes, unaired pilot, audio commentaries, featurettes, bloopers, optional English subtitles, chapters.
"Joey: The Complete First Season" (Warner, 2005-06, not rated, $39.98, four discs). Matt LeBlanc stars as dumb-but-lovable actor Joey Tribbiani, who moves to Los Angeles to build his acting career in this sitcom, a spinoff of "Friends." Hardly inspired, way too many sex gags but with occasional laughs.
Extras: Full frame, 24 episodes, subtitle options (English, French, Spanish).
"Night Stalker: The Complete Series" (Touchstone, 2005, not rated, $29.99, two discs). Weak attempt to copy the old series (and cross it with "The Fugitive" and "The X Files") about a newspaper reporter encountering monsters. Includes four episodes that never aired.
Extras: Widescreen, 10 episodes, audio commentaries, deleted scenes, featurettes, chapters; DVD-Rom applications (unproduced scripts).
"The Doris Day Show: Season 3" (MPI, 1970-71, not rated, $39.98, four discs).
"The Doris Day Special" (MPI, 1971, not rated, $14.98). The third season of Day's gentle, amusing sitcom has the single mother leaving the farm to continue working for a magazine in the city. McLean Stevenson and Rose Marie co-star, and the bonus features are as much fun as the show. Van Johnson is a guest star; a young Meredith Baxter stars in a pilot from Day's production company.
The "Special" is Day's first TV musical outing, performing her hits, teaming up with Perry Como and movie pal Rock Hudson.
Extras: Full frame, 26 episodes, new interviews, commercials with cast members, bloopers, trailers, promos (all on "The Doris Day Show" only), chapters.
"The Judy Garland Show Featuring Martha Raye, Peter Lawford, Vic Damone, Chita Rivera" (Geneon, 1964, not rated, b/w, $14.98). More episodes of Garland's '60s music/variety series with the listed guest stars.
