Dog the Bounty Hunter - The Best of Season 1

Reality TV series Dog the Bounty Hunter is far more entertaining than it has any right to be. Consider: The central figure is a middle-aged, former biker and Texas felon with a ridiculous '80s rock star haircut and an Oahu-based business ("Da Kine Bail Bonds") collaring drug-addled fugitives. Yet Dwayne "Dog" Chapman's criminal-snagging exploits all over Honolulu, aided by his scary-looking brother, son, Nephew, and invaluable, fiercely independent wife, Beth, are captivating in a surreal, larger-than-life fashion. The Best of Season One includes several highly watchable episodes, watching Chapman's team do its dangerous work, a startling blend of machismo and almost prayerful compassion for the losers being dragged back to justice. But this is also a show about family; about the Chapmans' beautiful house and kids, about making time for a birthday party after hauling in a dangerous creep. Weird, silly, suspenseful, and fun. --Tom Keogh
