 Phillies fans will love this! January 8, 2009
SHC
I am a Phillies fan and I agree with the reviewer who said that this DVD is great for Phillies fans but OK for everyone else. This is the only World Series DVD I've ever seen so I can't compare it with any other. I really did enjoy it and I enjoyed getting it at Amaazon's price!

Purchased for my dad for Christmas. He wanted a Home Companion of the Phillies World Series season. He said it was GREAT and it touched upon much more than just the Tampa Bay series.
Fantastic!!!! December 16, 2008

As a long-time suffering Phillies fan of course I was going to love this DVD and of course I will be a little biased here. But bear in mind one thing: I have never seen another championship DVD to compare this to but I will do my best.
It opens with Jamie Moyer, Ryan Howard, Jimmie Rollins, Brad Lidge, and Charlie Manuel reading Phil Sheridans Philadelphia Inquirere article that day after we won.
Now seeing as this is a "World Series" dvd I often wondered if they only covered the World Series, but thankfully that is not the case. It opens in Spring Training just as the arduous baseball season does and recaps the entire season. Touching games such as the wonderfull 7-0 deficit to the Mets that the Phils overcame to win and the Division clincher and plenty of highlights in between.
The dvd then covers the NLDS and the NLCS in the same chapter. then they convered the World Series which is a bulk of the DVD itself. Each game is covered in detail including the dabacle that was game 5.
The special features are incredible as well. There is one where it has the best of Shane Victorino who was miked during the WS. Also, it includes the last out of the Division clincher, NLDS clincher, NLCS clincher and it has the final three outs of the World Series. Also they have the trophy presentation as well as the locker room celebration. This DVD is nearly 2 hours long, which surprised me and I can watch it again and again and again. Bottom line, if you are Phillies fan buy the damn thing you will love, If you are a Mets fan, buy it to see what you are missing.
Great for Phillies fans, OK for Everyone Else November 25, 2008

As a Phillies diehard this one was worth rushing out for and purchasing in its first day of release. I couldn't wait to relive some of the memorable moments from this unexpectedly spectacular Phillies season - particularly the postseason run. For even the average Philly fan this DVD does not disappoint. Starting off with a series of emotionally grabbing clips and organization members reading excerpts from Philadelphia Inquirer articles written the day following their World Series clinching victory. It's simply awash in phanatical pro-Philly grandeur and well paced, neither rushing through storylines nor bogged down in specifics.
That said if you are a Rays fan prepared to be disappointed. The first 21-22 minutes are totally devoted to Philadelphia's ride to the Series, whereas the following portion of just 6-7 minutes is devoted to Tampa Bay's unlikely run. I can remember the 1993 World Series VHS doing a far better job at representing both the winning Blue Jays and losing Phillies with roughly equal attention served.
For everyone else this is simply a pleasant and expertly produced walk through of the happenings in the 2008 World Series - not a particularly riveting affair but interesting enough to hold the attention of any baseball lover. The Phillies faithful meanwhile will bask in the glow of their championship, Philadelphia's first in a quarter-century, and the images therein. Brilliant depictions, never before seen camera angles and even parade footage fill the better than 90-minute pseudo-Phillies documentary. Simply a must have for any Phillies fan and a great (and cheap) holiday gift!!!
