Laissez le Bon temp rouler... let the good times roll! — Nothing is simple in The Big Easy, the setting for Season One of this sexy, action-packed crime series. In New Orleans steamy Latin Quarter, passions run as hot as Ta... more »basco, loyalty has the life expectancy of a Rum Hurricane and the dark waters of the Louisiana bayou tell no tales.
Based on the hit 1987 film, THE BIG EASY stars Tony Crane (WISHMASTER) as Remy McSwain, a freewheeling Cajun cop not above committing a crime to solve one, and Susan Walters (SEINFELD s Mulva )as beautiful but dedicated federal agent Anne Osborne, who will go the distance to uphold the law... even as far as jumping into Remy s bed.
Costarring Barry Corbin (NORTHERN EXPOSURE) and produced by Sonny Grosso, whose career as a New York City cop inspired THE FRENCH CONNECTION, THE BIG EASY ran for two seasons on cable television's USA Network, bringing to discerning viewers a level of violence and eroticism at that time uncommon for prime time TV.

"I am so happy season one is being released. I really enjoyed the characters and location of the series and was very disappointed when it went off the air. Hopefully season two will also get the nod for DVD release."
It's about time!

"The Big Easy has been long overdue for a dvd run. The series is a deliciously written storyline woven through the streats of New Orleans, with a hometown cop/detective and district attourney from the northeast at the center of it all. Definately worth it to watch, as the southern charm, good humor and occasional steamy encounters can keep one glued to their seats."
Great show!

"I used to live in New Orleans and remember seeing the crews filming this show all around my neighborhood. It's a great show with a great cast...and, most importantly, a great tribute to New Orleans!

"Like many others, I have waited a LONG time for this series to come out on DVD. I loved this show, although I have to admit that I didn't feel the same about it once Susan Walters left the cast. The chemistry between Susan Walters and Tony Crane was steamy...and I only wish the writers and done more to tempt us with their relationship later on in the series. The writing changed and some of the characters seemed to disappear about midway through the first season, but I still consider this one of my favorite series ever. The New Orleans setting, the music, the quirky characters, the push-pull relationship of Remy and Anne - I loved every minute of it. THANK YOU to whomever was responsible for finally bringing this show to DVD!"
Love this show!

"This show is even better than I remembered. I hope they release the remaining episodes quickly. What I don't understand why did they cancel this show for LeFemme Nakita?"
