This is the first 6 episodes of "Tales of the City" - the best ones IMO. The acting is great and the storyline keeps one interested in seeing what will happen next. If you liked the '70's (despite the ugly clothes) you will enjoy this. Set in 1976 San Francisco, it embodies innocence, simplicity, decisions and 'life in our 20's' experiences we all go through in so many different ways. A fun series.

I have read some reviews complaining about poor quality video. True it is not the quality of current dvd and blu rays but I thought it was awfully good -- better than vhs for sure! The story was complete as I remember from the vhs original version.

This is wonderful! I’ve always loved these books and the miniseries and I’m glad I have it forever now. The dvds are in great shape and the shipping was fast.

This is not ground breaking or wildly exciting, but almost a soap opera where most of the characters are gay. I had read the author's six book series before viewing the mini-series on VHS. I did enjoy seeing the characters come to life on the screen and thought the actors did a nice job, but don't expect to be on the edge of your seat the whole time. It is an enjoyable slice of San Francisco life in the wild 70's before AIDS. It is worth seeing and I still have my set of tapes for a rainy day when there's nothing else to watch.
So glad to receive this nostalgic bit of our history. I love Maupin’s writing.
