Envy Girls – Workouts For The Spots That Really Count

 

Picture: C     Sound: C     Extras: D     Programs: C

 

 

Here come The Envy Girls to make you so fit and sexy, that people will hate you, or something like that.  Eliana covers abdominals, Natasha “buns” (with any double entendres applicable), Vala legs and Yvette arms.  Though the hosts and fellow crew are all female, this should work for men as well, give or take a few moves.

 

The four DVDs come in a DigiPak book with fancy multi-mirror cover that makes you look like you are looking at a bunch of silver Christmas ornaments making your face bubble.  Why?  Who knows, but the programs are nothing new, different or better than what wee have seen before.  They are adequate for what they offer, but the real problem is the playback of all four.

 

The image on these discs are odd, with a 1.33 X 1 frame letterboxed within an 16 X 9/1.78 X 1 frame that is also there bookended on the left and right.  More severe than window-boxing, what were they thinking?  It is a poor choice and the video source does not look that bad, but the box only claims Full Screen and that is not true.  The Dolby Digital 2.0 Stereo is on the weak side, with a low volume and the combination is the poorest we have seen in exercise material on DVD to date and there are no extras.
