In season 1, we meet Dr. Joel Fleischman (Rob Morrow), an urban New York yuppie who consents to four years of rural servitude after Alaska pays his medical-school tuition. Joel's fish-out-of-water adventures drive the show, but it's the quirky ensemble of characters--Chris, the DJ/philosopher (John Corbett), Holling, the bartender (John Cullum), Maurice, the town patriarch (Barry Corbin), Ed, the filmmaker (Darren E. Burrows), and Maggie, the bush pilot (Janine Turner), among others–-that keeps the series consistently entertaining. The town develops its own offbeat personality as well, a Mayberry-meets-Twin-Peaks blend of Native mysticism, Aurora Borealis-induced dreams, unlikely tales of long-lost family members, and rumors of a Bigfoot-like creature known simply as "Adam."
Northern Exposure provides a utopian escape--a place where life is interesting but never dangerous, everyone's insightful, the mystical becomes real, and nobody's burdened with a mundane 9-to-6 desk job. Cicely is a delightful place to visit, even if it's only for an hour at a time.
A mid-season replacement, season 1 consists of just eight episodes on two DVDs. Each episode includes 5-10 minutes of outtakes and deleted scenes. --Shane Burnett

Customer Reviews of Northern Exposure - The Complete First Season
Love the show....but the quality of the DVD is questionable "Northern Exposure" was the first show to which I truly became addicted. Every Monday evening would find me camped out in front of the television. This is very unusual behavior for me because I am not much of a television watcher. However, here was finally a show that was quirky, odd, and funny in an off-beat kind of way. Just the kind of show that would pique my interest. Needless to say I was very pleased to hear about the release of Season One on DVD. <

>I won't say that I was exactly disappointed with my purchase. I did realize that season One would only include a few episodes since "Northern Exposure" was a replacement show. I was surprised, however, by the relatively poor quality of the discs. Also, the price was very high for such a short season. <

>If you are a true "Northern Exposure" fan you will enjoy the shows and ignore the problems. I'm afraid others might be disappointed.
Northern Exposure INCOMPLETE For Any Season
The Northern Exposure DVDs feature only four episodes per disc. At two discs, two episodes per, that's eight episodes out of thirteen. The First Season does NOT include the pilot.

Just One teeny tiny complaint
It was fun to recieve this DVD! I love the cute little parka that it is dressed in!
My only complaint about the DVD is that it has 2 sides and trying to read the "teeny tiny" print on the DVD itself is difficult. But I managed to figure it out and am enjoying watching the first season of one of my favorite TV programs.
I will certainly buy the other seasons.
