Product Description
Product Description
Emmy award winner Dick Van Dyke stars as Dr. Mark Sloan, a dedicated doctor who dabbles in detective work in DIAGNOSIS MURDER. Caring and compassionate, Dr. Sloan enlists the help of his police detective son, Steve (Barry Van Dyke) whenever he suspects one of his patients is the victim of foul play. And he wonÂ’t rest until the bad guys are put to bed - permanently! Working alongside Sloan is pathologist Amanda Bentley (Victoria Rowell). For star performances and classic "whodunit" suspense, the right prescription is DIAGNOSIS MURDER.

One of America's most beloved TV actors, Dick Van Dyke, proved his longevity and acting chops in Diagnosis Murder, as Dr. Mark Sloan, chief of staff at L.A.'s Community General Hospital, as well as a consultant for the police department on confounding murders. The show was originally conceived as a Murder, She Wrote-with-boys, to tap into the late '80s and early '90s wave of spunky-senior shows (Golden Girls, Matlock et al.). But Van Dyke's versatility and charisma drew fans of all ages, and the first season shows his breadth as an actor. The mysteries range from the fairly typical (a beautiful patient surrounded by intrigue has amnesia--or does she?) to the gritty and offbeat (Sloan's son, played by Van Dyke's real son, Barry, gets too close to a gang of corrupt cops, with near-disastrous results). Through it all, Van Dyke's Sloan is avuncular, thoughtful, warm, and serious, but conveys enough wry humor and cheekiness to take considerable advantage of Van Dyke's comic timing. One episode in this season, "Inheritance of Death," features Van Dyke playing multiple roles--young, old, men, women--in a conniving family grasping for the inheritance of an ancient family member, and it's laugh-out-loud funny. Another standout in the cast is Scott Baio as Sloan's earnest sidekick, Dr. Jack Stewart. The boxed set features all 19 episodes of the first season, plus the episode of Jake and the Fatman which introduced the character of Dr. Mark Sloan. --A.T. Hurley

* Jack: a handsome young resident at the hospital who did double job as Mark's legman.
* Amanda: also a resident at Community General specialized in pathology.
* Steve (Dr. Sloan son): a detective on the L.A.P.D.

Thank you for reading my review, have a nice day :)
The only thing I did not like about how they put the series together - you have to hit play for each show. I have other series that you can play all or indiduals shows.
In this first season it even has the show that Diagnosis Murder was shot off from - Jake and the Fat Man. I had forgot about that and it was good to see it.
I am so glad it is finally out and looking forward to more as this is
a great series to enjoy especially with laughter at some of the pranks
the characters pull.
Thank You!!!

It's sad that we don't have that kind of show now. It was an amazing show with all the suspense and action, humour and without the swearing.
I just bought Season 2. I'm sure I'll love that one too.
Thanks,
Linda
Pour pour preuve dans l'épisode 4 , Dick Van Dike interprete en plus du Dr Sloan 4 autres personnages dont une femme et dévoile tout ses talents tout au long des saisons , chanteur , danseur etc....
Je ne peux que vous recommander cette série , hélas en France les sorties DVD de ces séries sont totalement meprisées , il n'existe qu'une saison en VF et 2 saisons en VOST soit les saisons 1, 2 et 3 sur les 8 saisons que compte la série , une honte quand on sait que le reste est sortie aux USA , comme toujours nous les fans Francais ne sommes pas respecté et nous n'aurons donc jamais la suite en région 2.
Quoi qu'il en soit 3 saisons à posséder absolument .
Le coffret comporte 5 disques : le 5ème disque a un bonus, un épisode de la série "la loi est la loi" (Jake and the Fatman en vo) de la saison 4 épisode 18 où le personnage du Dr Sloan apparaît pour la première fois, un épisode en langue française.
