DVD Review: Guilty Pleasure ‘Harper’s Island’ Could Become Cult Hit

Harper's Island

CHICAGO – I’m still a little miffed that the “Harper’s Island” experiment didn’t work out for CBS. The show was far from perfect, but I still like the idea of a limited series with a predetermined beginning, middle, and end. Sadly, no one tuned in to watch “Harper’s Island” on CBS but the guilty pleasure could have a second life on DVD.

TV Review: ‘Harper’s Island’ Has Great Hook But Lackluster Execution

CHICAGO – I’ve been looking forward to “Harper’s Island” for months.

The concept of a 13-week mystery featuring beautiful people getting whacked week to week was definitely intriguing. Now that I’ve seen the premiere, the bubble has burst.
