Advantages: 4 Episodes on a two DVD set. Disadvantages: Lack of extra and a bit expensive
...The voyages of Captain Dylan Hunt and the crew of the Andromeda Ascendant are continued as they try to re-energise the Andromeda and find their way out of the Seefra system.
As with most of the DVD's in the fifth series this box set contains 4 episodes namely E10 to E13, which are seperated onto 2 DVD's.
E10 - The Test.
This is a bit of a wierd episode as it is told from start to finish as normal, but the character interaction is dealt with by fade in / out as the story moves along. For example, Trance is at the bar and then dylan would fade in, interact and the fade out.
The episode basically tells the story of a Paradine who is 'murdered' and all the crew, apart from Doyle are accused of the murder. As the plot moves along and each crew member is accused and cross examined by 'the stranger' who came from the route of ages...

Advantages: kids like it Disadvantages: is nothing compared to the original
...The new cartoon format of 'Mr Bean' is all in all a complete let down. I got very excited when I heard that a cartoon mr bean was coming out. I had expected it to be along the lines of the classic comedy sitcom sketches by Rowan Atkinson, but it's nothing like it one bit. The modern artwork tries to make Mr Bean look appealing to the younger generation and completely destroys his unique clumsy geek image.
The DVD consists of one disc and features eight animated episodes each lasting about 15 minutes including: 1. Camping (mr bean decides to go camping for a holiday treat, however as usual with mr bean, things go wrong. He makes a security guard angry, he tent colapses and ends up creating more trouble by trying to fix everything and geting even with the secuirty guard).
2. Chocks Away -in this episode Mr Bean takes to building...

Advantages: Lot's of laughs, easy watching, Can be watched by a wide range of audiences. Disadvantages: Is a very particular type of comedy.
...Most of you won't be new to friends, and will have already decided between the 10 years (1994-2004) it was on tv whether you like it or not. I personally love it and think it is comedy at its best.
This DVD is the beginning of season3. I think that this was one of the best seasons because the directors and actors were comfortable as they had already done 2 seasons, but the jokes and the show were still fresh.
Jennifer Aniston (Rachel), Matt LeBlanc (Joey), David Schwimmer (Ross), Courtney Cox (Monica), Lisa Kudrow (Phoebe) and Matthew Perry (Chandler) are back after the media "backlash" and what i would call one of the most promising seasons of friends proved that they had remained undefeatable and the media were back supporting them.
Here is a full list of the contents:
1. The One With The Princess Leia Fantasy
