IT'S THE 90'S AGAIN!

'Party of Five" had its heyday in the '90s and now the second season of the long-running series is out on DVD. We asked the Review Crew to rate it.

Dan Contrada, 28, Malverne

Dan says: I loved watching the absorbing lives of the Salinger family, and the DVD reminded me how much I looked forward to this drama every week. Jennifer Love Hewitt's reminiscences were particularly engaging, but then again, I'm biased. For the price of five movie tickets, you're getting a great value if you're an avid "Party of Five" fan.

Back in the day, my Uncle Tony and I always watched "Party of Five" together. So I called him t! o watch this DVD with me. We loved it! A lot of good stuff happened this season: Bailey and Sarah finally hook up, Sarah finds out she's adopted, Julia and Justin are on and off. There's also an interview with Jennifer Love Hewitt, who gives the inside scoop about what went on during the tapings.

Watching "Party of Five" is like eating Gummy Bears - a fun snack, but pop too many and you might get a stomachache. While I had a few laughs listening to Jennifer Love Hewitt reflect on her teenage crush on Scott Wolf, I felt like I was watching a Lifetime "Intimate Portrait." I wished that other actors ("Lost" boy Matthew Fox and my favorite mean girl, Lacey Chabert) had gotten a slice of the skinny DVD extras - and previews for random movies I've already seen are not "special" features.

Marisa D'Agosto, 24, Massapequa

I would never purchase a "Party of Five" DVD. It's the kind of show you g! et caught watching on Lifetime on a Sunday afternoon. I wouldn't recommend the DVD to avid "POF" fans either. Besides a dull interview with Jennifer Love Hewitt, the bonus material includes commentary by the cast as the episodes play. It's funny at times, but mostly distracting because you're straining to hear and watch the episode as the actors talk over it.

Grade: B-

Karen Berg, 24, Bayside

I remember watching "Party of Five" as a preteen and loving every second of it. I'd tune in every Wednesday night to laugh and cry with the Salingers. Now, I've got to say, it's a lot more painful to see. Bailey, played by Scott Wolf, is the only character I still like. As an added bonus, you'll get to hear why Jennifer Love Hewitt loved playing Sarah opposite hunky Wolf (12 years her senior). I guess at 16, I'd have loved to play Wolf's girlfriend, too.
