The amazing-but-true story of how the New York Yankees single-handedly helped to raise the spirits of a city in a time of darkness and uncertainty. Based on the best-selling novel by Jonathan Mahler, this historic 8-part dramatic miniseries captures the summer or 1977 like never before. Packed with over 2 hours of historical footage and behind-the-scenes features.

Summary: It's a home run for drama at its best!
Comment: 1977...a tumultuous year in New York City. A blackout...the search for Son of Sam..a race for Mayor...and the ups and downs of the New York Yankees. This six hour miniseries hits a home run for the story behind the scenes of that season from perspective of George Steinbrenner, Billy Martin, Reggie Jackson and the players. I never did get a chance to see this on ESPN in the summer of 2007 but I now have the DVD set. It was the best six hours I have spent watching this miniseries. First rate drama. If you enjoy the Yankees and or baseball, then don't miss this!!!

Summary: Yankee history
Comment: Great movie about the other side of baseball most fans dont' know or think about. Great story of a baseball dynasty. Ball players from that era, we will most likly never see again. And a great manager, Billy Martin. Best part for me: LOU PINIELLA!
Lou has become one of the greatest minds and deans of the sport. Cub fans are greatful to have him as our manager.

Summary: i love this series
Comment: I love this series. My only disappointment is there is not "play ALL" button. So I have to press play for every episode. I like to sit and watch lots of tv episodes at once while I am working on time consuming projects that doesn't make it easy for my dirty hands to touch my laptop or remote (like artwork and cooking. etc). Why don't all DVDS have a play all mode!?

Summary: Perfect gift for a Yankees fan
Comment: First off, not that it matters, but I'm a die hard Red Sox fan. I bought this miniseries back when it came out for my GF's father. He loved it. At the time, I took a chance on it having heard little or nothing about it & it ended up being really good. Though I said "Perfect gift for a Yankees fan" I would really recommend this to anyone who has a love for baseball as the game it is.

Summary: 5 stars ,all the way.
Comment: after terrible projects such as the pete rose movie and the dale earnhardt movie. espn hit a grabd slam with this one.all the key players really look like the real guys .billy martin and thurman munson in particular.i could have used a little better acting on son of sam sub plot.but thats minor, because its the 77 yankees soap opera that grabs you.how they won anything is beyond me.
