Samantha Newly (Christina Applegate) may have survived a hit-and-run car accident, but her memories weren't so lucky. The young executive awakens from a coma to find that she can't remember a thing about her own life. SAMANTHA WHO?, a quick-witted sitcom that garnered critical acclaim in its freshman season, follows Sam as she begins to uncover unsavory truths about the girl she used to be; when she reacquaints with friends and family, Sam learns that she was an alcoholic, a cheater, a liar, and an ungrateful daughter. With a clear picture of who she was, Sam begins to view her amnesia as a new lease on life, and commits herself to being a better human being. The first season finds Samantha reuniting with her alienated parents, Regina (Jean Smart, 24) and Howard (Kevin Dunn, TRANSFORMERS), her party-girl best friend Andrea (Jennifer Esposito), and Dena (Melissa McCarthy, GILMORE GIRLS), an old acquaintance pretending to be one of Sam's closest pals. Every episode from the initial season is included in this volume, along with a behind the scenes tour with Golden Globe nominee Applegate. [More]

  • Samantha...WHO? That's what Sam Newly, irresistibly played by Christina Applegate, would like to know! Upon waking up from an eight-day coma, she can't remember a thing -- not her boyfriend, her parents, her job, not even herself. Although some things are best left forgotten, Sam is determined to dig up the "goods" on herself. With a little help from her ex-boyfriend, ex-doorman, her too (make that two) few friends and slightly odd parents, Samantha gets a once in a lifetime opportunity to become a bad-girl-gone-good. Indulge yourself in the ultimate do-over fantasy with the fresh new hit comedy SAMANTHA WHO? -- THE COMPLETE FIRST SEASON, starring Emmy(R) Award-winning Christina Applegate, and a hilariously quirky cast of supporting characters including Jean Smart, Jennifer Esposito and Kevin Dunn. With every Season One episode and exclusive bonus features, cheer for the charmingly imperfect Sam -- whoever she is!

    Samantha Who? is a feel-good comedy not out to change the world. This is a breath of fresh air for a TV block that engages too much in social engineering.
