Protraph Lack of good storyline.

Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Cristal The movie really just wants to entertain people.

RavenGlamDVDCollector Also on my Hard-to-Find list, seasons 3 and onwards. This used to be a late night show on South African pay channel M- Net, Friday nights after the featured movie. Series is caught between its own corniness and other moments of far exceeding itself. The most memorable sequence to me will always be that very hot chick tied to the bed with Martin's fantasy of licking honey or cream or whatever off her going awry. Fortunately I did obtain that, for it was in Season Two, I think. I remember an episode with strong references to phallic imagery (in the lateral sense, of course, like train rushing into tunnel, rocket launching, etc) which I do not have on DVD, so that must be Season Three. M-Net didn't bother with it further on. Just learned today that it apparently tames down as it progresses, and these elements of naughtiness would be sorely missed, seeing that they drew my attention to the series in the first place. C'mon, I had to wait up for this, often. Without the delightful bits this would not have been worth it. Anybody out there with more info about just exactly what goes on in Season Four glamor- wise, welcome to contact ol' RavenGlamDVDCollector@gmail.com.Hey, I know! This is a shoddy review! Have noticed another reviewer quite fond about the beloved characters. But my experience was that I got really bummed having to wait for tedious, endless movies to finally trundle, trundle past before this began and then it was Martin and company but all too often they got bogged down in silly scenes, and those irritating old film bits made the experience even worse. Years later, on DVD, unaffected by a long wait and bothersome commercials, the show remains, of course, a long way off from FRIENDS. Then, again, if FRIENDS had bare breasts (wow, :) Jennifer Anidton :) wow)... But if you catch my drift, there are lots of very lame- y bits in DREAM ON though I'm not calling it lame in its entirety.

movieman_kev Dream on follows the adventures of Martin Tupper (Brian Benben) as he tries to get on with life after his divorce from Judith (Wendie Malick). Dealing with her perfect new husband, caring for his son, dealing with his cranky secretary, and bedding stunningly hot women along the way. The first season was OK and had it's fair share of funny episodes. But season 2 with the introduction of a new Eddie (Dorien Wilson, replacing Jeffrey Joseph), Micheal McKean joining the cast as Gibby, Martin's new boss, and some great cameos the series really came into it's own. Sadly, none of the cast or creators (save for McKean and John Landis) went onto do anything even moderately entertaining in subsequent years after this show finished. And yes I know about "Friends" and "Veronica's Closet". I still stand by my statement. THIS is the series "Sex & the City" WISH it could have been.My TV Grade: A DVD Extras: John Landis Intro; Trailers for "Quantum Leap: Season 2"; "Magnum, PI: Season 1"; "Law and Order: Assorted spin offs and seasons" Seasons 1 & 2 Eye Candy: The following all get topless: Jeanine Renshaw in episode 2, Susan Lentini in episode 3, Dedee Pfeiffer in episode 6; Deirdre Imershein in episode 8, Julie Carmen in episode 9, Monique Gabrielle in episode 12, Lisa Saxton and Anastasia Barzee in episodes 15 & 16, Carolyn Lowery in episode 17, Mimi Craven in episode 18, Connie Woods and Maggie Wagner in episode 20, Susan Ashley in episode 22, Laura Albert in episode 25, Cheryl Boudreau, Lisa London, Kimber Sissons in episode 26, and Cherie Michan in episode 27

therunges I loved this series. Martin was a boy whose mom had continually used the TV as his baby sitter. Therefore, in the show Martin was continually flashing back on moments from old b&w TV shows that relate to the situation in his life. The technique was done very well, very funny, and I occasionally see it done on current television. Of course being a cable series, the show revolved around topics that can't be done on regular TV, usually Martin's sex life. The version of the show that aired on Comedy Central was cleaned up and a watered down version at best. How could you show a cleaned up version of the scene where Martin, while leaving a message on his mom's answering machine spills a beer on himself, and expect it to be funny? I wish this show would hurry up and come out on DVD.

caspian1978 Dream On was one of HBO's 1st original series that not only made us laugh with unique comedy, it was sexy as well. Many comedies fall short when trying to be funny. More than half don't make it past the first year let alone hang around for 7 years! On top of that, it was the first series long before Sex and the City that tackled the world of relationships on a comical and sometime serious level. An Annie Hall for the 90's, the character of Martin Tupper reflects on moments from his past, his past spent in front of the television to deal with the moments of the present. An amazing series that the 90's had taken for granted. Among the rest of the programming that HBO was showing then, including Tales From the Crypt and the early Real Sex series, Dream On was one of the few original programs worth watching.
