Welcome back to Cicely, Alaska, where whimsy and magical realism are always in season. While Northern Exposure's heart is as big as all outdoors, its charms are starting to wear a little thin in its penultimate season, particularly John Cullum's New Age-y DJ McDreamy, Chris (one longs for that season 1 episode in which he lost his voice). But there is compensation in such sweet, unexpected moments as the one in "A River Doesn't Run Through It," in which bush pilot Maggie O'Connell (Janine Turner) finds the tape recorder of Dr. Joel Fleishman (Rob Morrow), who is out in the field, and, missing his voice, sits down to listen to one of his tapes. The long-awaited thawing of what Joel calls their "bizarre" relationship is this season's biggest development. Their efforts to "go out" and be nicer to each other are frustrated by such nuisances as a dust-mite allergy ("Mite Makes Right"). Another blessed event is the birth of Shelley's (Cynthia Geary) so-called "Little Pooper," but not before she freaks at impending motherhood ("Baby Blues") and has a series of laundromat encounters with her future child at different stages in her life, from Barbie-playing adolescent to aspiring Dallas Cowboy cheerleader ("Hello, I Love You"). Aspiring young filmmaker and shaman Ed (Darren E. Burrows) finds himself at a crossroads in "Rosebud," one of his better episodes, in which he is charged with organizing a film festival to put Cicely on the map. Peter Bogdanovich, as himself, regales one and all with his Orson Welles stories, and encourages Ed to finally make a movie. A quintessential love-it-or-hate-it Northern Exposure episode is "Mr. Sandman," in which the Northern Lights cause the residents to swap their dreams. The season ends on a heartwarming grace note with "Lovers and Madmen," in which Joel, who has always kept himself aloof from the close-knit community (in "Rosebud," he resists joining the volunteer fire department), at last accepts that he has become a "Cicelian," after discovering a frozen wooly mammoth. Too bad the series couldn't have ended here before finally jumping the caribou in its last season. --Donald Liebenson

- No French subtitlesIt is a fabulous show...a wonder of freshness and originality, a joy to watch. So my complaint is rather small, especially compared to the missing music:
I found Seasons 1-3 to be a wonderful aid to working on my French vocabulary and reading ability. Even without a French soundtrack, the subtitles were a great resource. I was completely blindsided by their disappearance after Season 3 (although the product descriptions accurately reflects this).

- Northern Exposure 5th season still enjoyableI always enjoyed this series. This season was one of the best
in the program.

- What is not to loveQuirky people, a great setting, excellent writing and a town DJ with a voice like butter, who could ask for anything more? In my opinion this is the best of TV, it was very different and refreshing, nothing "cookie cutter" about it. Great memorable characters, Chris Stevens, Adam, Shelly, Holling and Ed, to name a few. I have been watching it during the writers strike. If you don't have all of the seasons yet get them, enjoy!

- ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK MISSING!!!THE FOLKS WHO PRODUCED THIS SHOW FOR DVD SHOULD BE DRAWN AND QUARTERED!
THEY HAVE ELECTED TO REMOVE MANY OF THE SONGS FEATURED IN THE ORIGINAL SHOW AND REPLACE THEM WITH CRAPPY SONGS BY NO NAME ACTS. I SUSPECT THAT THIS IS DUE TO THE FACT THAT THEY WANTED TO SAVE A BUCK IN PUBLISHING/ LICENSE FEES! IN DOING SO, THEY HAVE TAKEN A HUGE CHUNK OF THE ORIGINAL SHOW'S ALLURE AND FLUSHED IT DOWN THE TOILET! I PURCHASED ALL THE DVDS AND I AM VERY UPSET. SONGS LIKE "WHITER SHADE OF PALE" AND "BLITZKRIEG ... Read More

- BRAVObest television show since MARY HARTMAN MARY HARTMAN AND SOAP. WHEN ROB MORROW DECIDED TO QUIT THE SHOW, IT WAS CANCELED SHORTLY THERE AFTER. I HOPE ROB FLOPPED IN HIS BIG SCREEN CAREER. THIS SHOW COULD HAVE RUN LONGER THAN GUNSMOKE OR MASH.
