Don't waste your money. I've watched loads of TV series on DVD, and was looking forward to this one. Boy, was I disappointed. An actor who should never have been a lead man as their lead man, slow moving programmes, unfunny gimmicks .. in short, one of the worst programmes I've ever seen. I couldn't even watch it all, it was that bad.

You want classic TV: Try HBO's "Big Love". Try "The Sopranos". For sci-fi, try "Battlestar Galactica". Don't go near this turkey.

After I saw it on TV during the 90's, and being short on sci-fi gender DVD box-sets (which I love), I gave it a go on this one and it was very worthy. I really enjoy it then, and also now.

It focuses on a teenager genius that discovered a way to visit other Earth paralel dimensions, and with some friends is forced on doing it until they can find their original Earth parallel dimension. They visit a doomsday Earth threatened by a huge asteroid; a plague afflicted Earth, and so on.

The DVD have English subtitles, for those whom need a little help on catching the dialogs (witch is great for all non-English); but poor special features. The box is nice.

Historical remark: During the characters visit to an Earth ... Read More:

Yes,Universal Playback!! What can I say, except that this company loves to buy titles and then let fans hang waiting for further seasons that never materialise! They usually do it with popular BBC series, and in my opinion they should be boycotted!. Whats the point of releasing 3 seasons of a show and leaving the final two on the shelf. OK 4 & 5 weren't all that, but completists want them for heavens sake. God, I hate these companies, don't you??!!

DVD : Profiler: Season One [1996] (REGION 1) (NTSC)
I thought this series being made in 1996 would be rather out of date. However, I was wrong. I read a lot of crime fiction and it was my reading that attracted me to the title of the DVD. The pilot was excellent and has your attention to continue viewing. Overall, I enjoyed this series and would happily buy the next season; it is much better viewing than anything on current TV.

DVD : The Dead Zone: The Complete First Season [2001] (REGION 1) (NTSC)
I took a risk and purchased this dvd boxset having never before seen even a single episode, but WOW how it paid off! This is television at its best- every episode is completely gripping and looks as though it has a budget comparable to that of a movie (i.e. with matrix style camera tricks).

While the concept of a central character with a paranormal advantage over others isn't much of a blindingly-original a theme, this is very much above the average. Though the key to its success, despite its many original qualities has to be the central performance by Antony Michael Hall- he's just perfectly cast as Jonny Smith, a guy who manipulates events in the present to avert disaster in the future for himself, his loved ones and complete strangers ...

DVD : Roar: The Complete Series [1997] (REGION 1) (NTSC)
The complete series consists of 13 episodes written and produced by Shaun Cassidy (American Gothic) and Ron Koslow (Beauty and the Beast) - two series I greatly enjoyed.
Roar is set in a fictitious Ireland 400 AD when the Celtic tribes are at war with each other and the Romans invade the country. Conor (18-year old Heath Ledger), a young prince, and Fergus (John Saint Ryan), his friend and bodyguard, loose their people in a massacre in the pilot of the series. Conor then becomes chief of a group of war-victims. A position he is given by a mystical old man who (literally) disappears into thin air as soon as Conor accepts his new role. Among his new patch-work tribe there is Caitlin, a former slave girl, who is an excellent fighter and archer. Other ... Read More:

DVD : The Dead Zone: Complete Third Season (REGION 1) (NTSC)
This show is so much like coming home because very little changes in the world of Jonny Smith- the love triangle between himself, Sheriff Bannerman and Sarah persists, Bruce remains his ever-present side-kick and moral compass and of course those pesky visions continue to cause him as much personal strife as public reverence.

My anticipation of this 'Dead Zone' Third Season was pretty much off the scale and when it finally appeared on Amazon I was both relieved and elated that yet another 'Dead Zone' DVD Box-set would soon be in my possession and I'd be able to enjoy and treasure another (*fingers crossed)...stylish, unpredictable and engrossing year of this unique television experience charting the on-going adventures of Jonny Smith and the latest ...

This is a great film about a convenience store hostage situation that is broadcast nationally,
making some of the hostages national hero's. SFW focuses on the chaos that ensues when you
give fame and fortune to disaffected youth who not only don't really care, but don't even want it
(Hence the title which will become clear when you watch the film). Steven Dorff and Reese
Witherspoon are perfect in the lead roles, allowing young people or those who were once young
to identify with the situations. (Tobey Maguire of Spiderman also appears in an early cameo as a stoned teenager)
