Set in Nantucket, Wings focuses on a group of people who work at the same small airport and like each other so much (or are so bored) that they are constantly meddling in each other's business. The sixth season of the sitcom includes preparations for not one, but two weddings. Not to be outdone by Joe (Tim Daly) and Helen's (Crystal Bernard) engagement (finally!), busybody Roy (David Schramm) decides that he, too, wants to get married and sends away for a Russian mail-order bride. Feeling underappreciated, Fay (Rebecca Schull) quits her job only to regret her decision. And lovable but doltish Lowell (Thomas Haden Church) decides that the best thing to do with his inheritance money is to operate a wax museum. With the breakup of Joe's younger brother Brian (Steven Weber) and helicopter pilot Alex (Farrah Forke), a new romantic interest is brought in: Helen's sister Casey (Amy Yasbeck). Cabdriver Antonio (Tony Shalhoub) likes her, too, but he also has developed feelings for a woman who is engaged to his cousin. This season's slew of guest stars includes George Plimpton, former Mod Squad lead Peggy Lipton, and Debbie Reynolds as Helen and Casey's mother. All 26 episodes from the 1994-1995 season are included in this four-disc set that holds up surprisingly well over time. The chemistry between the ensemble cast is strong and the actors are likable, even when they're doing unlikeable things (We're talking about you, Roy!). --Jae-Ha Kim

wings the sixth season November 12, 2008
R. Ashe (San Antonio,Tx)
This is a laugh a min and you will laugh a lot at the way the crew works together to pull thing off...Very funny!
 What is with the packaging? August 27, 2008

Great show! Season six imo is probably the best, but hey they all are good, right! But why on earth did they change the way season six was packaged? Have got to say I don't like it. Cheap comes to mind(insert mad face icon here). Anyway if you are a Wings fan this is a must have for your collection.
Beginning of the end... July 12, 2008
Denise (KC, MO)
This season is so bittersweet because it marks the beginning of the end of a fantastic series that is still my personal favorite TV show...EVER!!!!
As we all know, on tv as soon as boy gets girl that marks the beginning of the end of their relationship and/or the show. Wings was no exception. I truly felt that Joe and Helen's 'wedding' was the low point of the show and was the most anti-climatic culmination of a wedding from a whirlwind love affair that I'd ever seen. Since then I've been equally disappointed with Big and Carrie's 'wedding' but that is another review...
Amy Yasbeck's addition was an improvement over Farrah Forke. She is funny and beautiful and has a nice chemistry with the rest of the cast. The rest of the cast was stellar as usual and even though I've seen these episodes literally dozens (if not hundreds of times) I still laugh at them.
My kids are now hooked on this wonderful show and they anxiously await the last two seasons. I'm not sharing my disappointment in what's to come. Perhaps after all of this time seeing them again will give me a different perspective on them.
Afterall, even BAD Wings was still better than most anything on the tube right now.

Its a great show to watch again. The gangs all here and there are lots of laughs. I really love seeing Tony Shalhoub as Antonio.
Great content but package needs to improve June 25, 2008

The sixth season of Wings was undoubtedly its best and the DVDs shos that. However, the quality of the DVD package leaves something to be desired. To save money, the distributors has inserted the DVDs over the episode summaries so that you have to clumsily remove them to read the summaries. Further, there are no extras yet again as in the previous season collections. Finally, visual quality seems murky at best.
Buy this season for the funny, endearing characters and try to forget about the cheapo packaging.
