Yes, we love Ally. And yes we have as much right as the Trekkies, to have our Ally books... but this being the official guide, you'd expect something else, something beyond the average.
I think the summaries made by fans are much better than those presented in this book, for starters; they are spare and those of the end of the second season seem rushed, as if they couldn't wait to finish the book properly.
High points? the interviews with Gil Bellows, Jane Krakowski, Courtney Thorne-Smith, Lisa Nicole Carson, Portia DeRossi, Lucy Liu, Vonda Shepard, et al. It's an insight, if not overtly deep on the talented players that weekly pull off the magic trick from their respective hats. Just one complaint on this area: where's Calista?
On the other hand, the interview with David E. Kelley seems more like a rehash of everything that has been said about how the shiow came to be and there is no novelty there, to be appreciated.
The color pictures are actually video captures, and sometimes they suffer the strain of being translated to print.
All in all, a very, but very, very nice book to have, but so bland and superficial altogether that one gets the feeling of something amiss... and this probes that most "official" things (either be books or websites) are not exactly the best sources of information for fans.
