Last Minute Sales & Specials

A series about a loving family facing the problems we all face - growing up and growing old, fitting in and finding our way - may not at first glance seem like a TV breakthrough. But look again. The second child in the family, Corky, has Down syndrome. He is played by Chris Burke, an actor who also has Downy syndrome. And with Burke's Corky as the show's center, "Life Goes On" broke through - right into the audience's hearts. This 6-disc set includes all 22 Season-One episodes (plus insightful extras) that follows the entire family, including 18-year-old Corky as he enters regular high school as a freshman, knowing that he may find friends, but he'll also find classmates who will never see beyond his disability. Episodes include: Disc One: "Pilot" - Corky enrolls at his little sister's high school. He has courage and determination - but is that enough? "Corky For President" - "The brain and the brainless." That's what the in-crowd calls a geeky campaign manager and his class-president candidate, Corky. "The Baby-Sitter" - Corky learns that teens are more trouble than little kids when rowdy classmates crash his baby-sitting gig. "Break A Leg, Mom" - Guilt-stricken Corky fears that he's the reason Libby gave up a glamorous show-biz career. Disc Two: "Becca's First Love" - When Becca flips for a bad-boy rocker in a local garage band, her normal good sense goes missing. "Paige's Date" - Concerned that Paige seems drawn to losers, Drew arranges a blind date for her with a corporate go-getter. "Paige's Mom" - Paige's actress mother comes to town every few years, full of big promises that never come true. "Call Of The Wild" - The spirit of a long-gone bra=ve appears to Corky just as Drew begins a development on sacred Native American land. Disc Three: "Corky Witnesses A Crime" - Corky is the football team's equipment manager! Then the coach slugs a student, and Corky isn't sure if a team player tells.
