Might have been a classic - Mousme
It's too bad this show got canceled. It has everything a viewer could ask for: a compelling overarching plot, good acting, sympathetic and interesting characters, and Gary Cole chewing up the scenery.
I'd like to think this one would have made it as a cult classic if it had been renewed.Excellent series - Coconut_Willy
This is indeed a very good series to rent as (at least in my area) it's been out of the re-run loop for quite a while. Obviously with only 22 episodes it can't stay on TV very long. At the time it was aired, I remember watching a few episodes but as it did not conform to a regular schedule, it was quite difficult to follow. Watching all these episodes at once is a very good viewing experience; the storylines were (usually) excellent, the acting quite good (specially Gary Cole) and the overall creepy Southern smalltown atmosphere makes it all even better. I believe this is a must for any fan of supernatural television series. This series comes on 3 double-sided DVD's with well designed menus and a few extras, mostly in the form of deleted or extended scenes. If you want to watch something different, I can't recommend this enough.Best Show Ever!!!!!!!! - Susan
American Gothic is one of my favourite shows of all time. Gary Cole is amazing as Sheriff Buck - the man/devil you love to hate. The town of Trinity is his supernatural playground and the only ones standing up to him are a doctor, a reporter, a child and a ghost. Unfortunatley, CBS treated it poorly and aired it out of order, burned it off in the summer and then cancelled it. It's also a shame that the DVD set didn't get much better treatment as some episodes are out of order. I recommend checking out the review of this on TVShowsonDVD.com because the reviewer was awesome and gave the right episode order and which disc you can find them on. It may seem like a lot of work - but trust me this show is worth it!
