Brilliant and touching
Holstra
Boring, long, and too preachy.

A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

This series, while idealized and fictionalized, has the quirkiness, sultriness, and good-heartedness that does come from living on an island.I lived in an out of the way part of Hawaii for a few years and found some hilarious, quirky, and fun people in some remote (non-tourist) areas.Every time I see the reruns of this series, I fondly compare my memories of experiences in out-of-the-way parts of Hawaii with the memories portrayed and fictionalized in Key West.This series is not reality television. I hate reality television.It is from the era when people still wrote creative TV shows. Give me a "young writer" who takes their inspiration from the "angels in the spray, wizards in the palm trees and elves in the seashells" any day.

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.

During the time this show aired, there were two other shows that appealed to those with a warped sense of drama and comedy, myself included. This show compared favorably with both "Northern Exposure" and "Going To Extremes". I was particularly thrilled with the setting of Key West. Having visited Key West, I could clearly envision the setting, but even for those who had never set foot in the Florida Keys, the show gave a wonderful vision to a unique place in America, not visited by most. I hope that all of these shows will eventually be available on DVD. I was particularly fond of the character Savannah played by actress Jennifer Tilly. Great show, kudos to all who participated in its production.

I end up watching the same shows on directv over and over. Why can't there be an occasional episode of "Key West". Ahhhh! For the good old days! Well, since my PST has to be 10 lines - lets talk about Jeniffer Tilly. Maybe we should ask "Nick At Night" to have a "KeyWest" marathon. I would be glued to the TV! I any case, don't we get tired of paying the same old $60.00 and having to watch the same old shows. Do they just have us at their mercy or do we really have a voice. If Kinky Friedman gets elected governor of the Great State of Texas, I'll see if he can do anything about that! "They just don't make Jew's like Jesus, anymore!"
