Editorial Review:
More Beverly Hills 90210 than Freaks and Geeks, Sweet Valley High looks at the lives and loves of the popular kids rather than the outcasts. Cynthia and Brittany Daniel star as twins Elizabeth and Jessica Wakefield in the television version of Francine Pascal's best selling book series. With their seemingly perfect Southern California lives, Liz and Jess are more Betty and Veronica, from the Archie comics, than the high school girls of any other TV series. In other words, Sweet Valley Highis escapism, pure and simple--and what's wrong with a little escapism? While both girls are part of the in-crowd, there are differences between them. Liz, a reporter for the school newspaper, is the good one, while Jess, a cheerleader, is the not-so-good one.
Created by Josh Goldstein (American Dreams), The Complete First Season includes all 22 episodes broadcast between 1994-1995. Supporting characters include Liz's boyfriend Todd (Ryan James Bittle) and best friend Enid (Amy Danles) and Jess's best friends Lila (Bridget Flanery) and Patty (Amarilis). Rich kid Bruce (Brock Burnett), his pal Manny (Harley Rodriguez), token nerd Winston "Eggman" Egbert (Michael Perl), and a few teachers--but no parents--round out the cast. Most of the conflicts the girls face are created by devious, self-centered Jess, who pretends to be her sister whenever Liz has something she wants, like a potential college boyfriend ("Dangerous Love"), a broadcasting gig ("Oracle on Air"), or praise from the hot poetry teacher ("Poetic Injustice"). Sweet Valley High ran on FOX for three seasons, followed by a fourth and final season on UPN. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

SWEET VALLEY HIGH is a miraculous piece of work! I saw all that I could, when it was on network TV...and loved 99% of it!
PLEASE....CAN WE HAVE THE OTHER SEASONS ON DVD AS WELL? I'm sure I'm not the only one who would buy them immediately? (If they can't be put on DVD...how about audio CDs or cassettes? As you can see, I REALLY, REALLY WANT TO OWN THE E N T I R E SERIES!

OK. This series is based on the book, yet the episodes don't really with the book plots. It is worth the purchase, especially if you do not have great Tv channels, like me. The acting is not fab, as some of the actors aren't really hot until season 3 (Todd)lol.
For people who enjoy the books, this is worth the purchase, as there are no more SVH books to read. I own almost all of them!
the DVD set alows you to see a different side to the book, where you can actually view the actions, ... Read More
