Mutant Xtakes the useful SF trope of the mutant minority persecuted by the state and adds ... more
potentially interesting spins on which it rarely delivers. After a couple of pilot episodes that pushed into OTT visual stylishness, the show has settled into mildly repetitive though watchable blandness: for the most part it avoids story arcs and a large cast of regulars in favour of plugging its characters into the stock plots of television SF, such as doubles, vengeance crusades and untrustworthy lovers.On the DVD:Mutant X Series 1, Volume 2contains the following episodes: "The Meaning of Death". A plague that kills mutants forces Adam to work with Mason Eckhart and the invulnerable mercenary Marlowe in the knowledge that any cure he comes up with will lead to a double-cross. "Lit Fuse". Brennan is attracted to energy-absorbing Ashley, who is being set up for betrayal by bounty-hunter Cross. When she absorbs Brennan, things get really complicated. "In the Presence of Mine Enemies". Jesse's hacker girlfriend Toni is forced by Eckhart to betray Adam's hideout Sanctuary and the computerised journalist Proxy Blue. Can the tables be turned? "Crime of the New Century". Youthful mutant firestarter Joshua is kidnapped, rescued and then turned over to the GSA by a renegade FBI agent. "Dark Star Rising". The survivors of a commando team have been altered into mutancy by scientists and want vengeance for their dead squad members. Mutant X helps them stop Eckhart getting the secret serum. The DVDs also contain trailers, a feature on the elaborate stunts and interviews with stunt coordinator Paul Rapovski, show runner Howard Chaykin and Victor Webster (Brennan). --Roz Kaveney

Advantages: none Disadvantages: loads of scenes and music scores have been cut out
this is the only fools and horses complete collection boxset but in my eyes it isnt because loads of scenes have been cut and musical scores changed or cut out and laughter tracks added onto episodes that didnt originally have a laughter track. so its not really the complete collection is it with all these things changed and added the episode a royal flush is the one that been edited the most loads of scenes have been cut and a laughter track added wich spoils the episode completely. i would strongly recommend anyone that want to see all the episodes in all their glory is to tape them off uk gold its better than this so called complete collection that the bbc have released im still waiting for the genuine complete collection. ...
Advantages: has all seasons and episodes in it! Disadvantages: price
The Boxset is a must have for any Friends Lover. if you watch re-runs of the show on tv and can say every line of any episode, your a fan, so go get this Boxset. it includes every season, with bonus extras, out-takes, and bloobers from each season. the best part about it is that you will have them all, and you won't have to go looking online for free channels to watch it, or wait every day to the late hours of the night just to enjoy an episode or two. you can sift through any season anytime your feeling a little down, and you need a friends pick me up! this is great series and you should probably look into getting it if your a true fan of Friends ...
Advantages: Lennard Pearce as Grandad, & Classic Episodes Disadvantages: Not all the Best & Special Episodes, No Extras
Sets.
... and finally, I personally believe the best episode of 'Only Fools And Horses - The CompleteSeries 1 To 7 (BoxSet)' is... Series 5 Episode 2: The Miracle of Peckham.
