Jerry Maguire One of the best romantic comedies of the '90s, this movie cemented writer-director Cameron Crowe's reputation as "the voice of a generation." It's a savvy story about a sports agent (Tom Cruise) whose fall from grace motivates his quest for professional recovery, and the slow-dawning realization that he needs the love and respect of a woman (Renee Zellweger in her breakthrough role) who has supported him through the worst of times.

Nicole Sullivan

Regular Cast, Seasons 1-6

She is also an accomplished poker player, winning a number of tournaments.

The King of Queens - The Complete Fourth Season The fourth season of The King of Queens opens with a perfect example of how the show spins real life into farce: Delivery guy Doug and his sardonic wife Carrie (Kevin James and Leah Remini) want to get pregnant, but can't get Carrie's cantankerous father Arthur (Jerry Stiller) out of the house; the only solution their budget will allow is hiring a dog-walker named Holly (Nicole Sullivan) to take Arthur to the park. A more banal sitcom would conclude with Arthur's rage when he discovers the truth, but The King of Queens finds a grace note with Arthur and Holly beginning a genuine friendship. This 3-disc set is matered in HD, and includes bonus previews and other extras.
