Disadvantages: not for very young people as slight violence

...i purchased this dvd about three weeks ago and after seeing the series on the tv i was amazed that i was still hooked . this series is good for the whole family but you might want to check it as there is some swearing and sex involved. There is something in this series for everyone, for the children there are aliens and the fact that theres amazing affects and excitement. For the men theres a lot of violence and sexy scenes.
