A light-hearted comedy revolving around a pair of bickering brothers
who run a small airline in Nantucket, Wings kicks off its
fourth season with a crash. Literally. But unlike Lost where
the passengers are never sure if they'll ever be rescued, it's
inevitable that the Nantucket bunch is saved. This four-disc set
includes all 22 episodes from this season and introduces Alex
Lambert (Farrah Forke) as the sexy helicopter pilot being wooed by
both Joe (Timothy Daly>) and Brian Hackett (Steven Weber). This is
kind of a bummer for fans who are hankering for Joe and his on-again
off-again crush Helen (Crystal Bernard) to finally commit to one
another. Some of the best episodes revolve around the periphery
players: Tony Shalhoub (Monk) shines as lovable immigrant cab
driver Antonio Scarpacci, who has the dubious honor of being
included in a girls' night out excursion. He also displays
hysterical paranoia when he is called as a witness in a robbery. And
when Brian accidentally sinks Lowell's (Thomas Haden Church,
Sideways) houseboat, the Hacketts take the dim-witted mechanic
in and are delighted to benefit from his housekeeping skills and his
gourmet meals, which are better than their mom's home cooking. But
they also learn that he can be as annoying as their mother as well.
And Lowell's ex-wife Bunny (Laura Innes, ER) is back to
torture her former husband. Most people would never want to hang out
with their colleagues 24/7, but with the cast of oddball (but
loving) characters on Wings, you can see why gravitate
towards one another. --Jae-Ha Kim
When Carlton Blanchard (William
Hickey) falls down the steps at Helen's house, she invites
him to stay with her, until his ankle heals, fearing a lawsuit.
