    Marketic It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.
    Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic
    Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
    Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
    kimbis-1 The biggest problem that the TV program Key West faced was that it was advertised wrong. If you saw the ads you would think it was a jiggle how, and be sorely disappointed. It was a vastly more complex show than that. I happened to be in Key West just before Hurricane Andrew hit, and I think I actually found myself having a drink or two with some of the cast in Rum Runners. Of course, that was before the show hit. I did see the sailboat that was in the opening go by a few times, and chatted with the guy who you see hacking up coconuts in the opening too. HE was a real local. Yes, I'd love to see this on DVD.
    Daniel Martel I totally agree with the one reviewer who said it was one of those amazingly well written and acted shows that you definitely can't find on major networks nowadays. The characters were enthralling to say the least and I've always wondered who the fox at Fox decided that this wasn't worth investing in. ALL the characters were amazing. The mood of the show was unbelievable and it was this show that made me go on a trek from Montreal, Quebec, Canada to Key West to find out about the magic of "The End Of The World". Too bad the show was thrashed too soon. In these times of remakes and TV crap galore, it would be refreshing to see the beautiful scenery of Key West and Jennifer Tilly one more time. Daniel Martel.
    Scott Amsden When Key West first aired, I was captivated from the first episode. The original characters and fun story line was truly appreciated. The show was my first introduction to Jennifer Tilly and I have enjoyed her work ever since but I still feel in my heart she will always be Savannah! If this ever becomes available on DVD, I would highly recommend it for anyone who is interested in original characters and inventive story telling. Although not terribly deep and meaningful, you really care about the people in this show. From the Sheriff and his unique way of dealing with minor local offenses to the bar owner and his uniquely Floridian pet you really feel like you would like to move to Key West. In fact, I feel that the real Key West may be a let down after watching this series. Fisher Stevens as Seamus comes across as the typical "everyman" following his dream and finding more.
    windchasr Both my husband and I watched Key West with great pleasure...his might have had a lot to do with Jennifer Tilly, who was amazingly attractive in this series. Every character was perfect, the writing was great, the music was wonderful. Today, this series would be like "Scrubs"; a gem to be discovered and given time to catch on. If we had had any idea it would be cancelled so prematurely we would certainly taped every episode. One of my fondest wishes is to finally see a boxed set (videos or DVD) available. Is there anyone or any company that we might all contact to make that happen? Even better, rerunning the series on a cable station...now that gives me hope. Thanks so much for giving me an opportunity to talk about this wonderful series.
