Description:

The Olsen twins' previous party compilation, You're Invited to Mary-Kate & Ashley's Greatest Parties, featured videos handpicked by their fans. The Favorite Parties on this collection, however, were chosen by Mary-Kate and Ashley themselves. Each party features a different theme, two female friends, five songs (plus a little dancing) and outtakes at the end followed by their signature catch phrase, "It's a wrap!" Although they aren't the best singers, Mary-Kate and Ashley get the job done and always look like they're having a great time. Still, two to three songs per party theme should have been sufficient (and would have allowed for greater character and story development). The sequencing could also be better. Fashion Party (1999), which opens the compilation, is clearly the most recent as the twins are sporting makeup, blonde streaks in their newly straightened hair, and a more sophisticated dress sense. They look significantly older than in Costume Party and Campout, even though those tapes were released only a year before (1998). Younger fans, however, are likely to ignore such shortcomings in favor of the cool outfits, catchy music and, of course, the stars of the show: the adorable, relentlessly upbeat boy- and pizza-crazy Olsen twins. --Kathleen C.
