Roswell - the complete season

Advantages: All 3 seasons in one set
Disadvantages: You'll have to save up

...excellent value for money. Roswell follows the lives of 6 teenagers living in Roswell, New Mexico, home of the infamous 1950s alien spaceship crash. 3 of the teenagers are normal, human kids - and 3 are from a little further away and have special powers. The 3 aliens have been living under the radar to avoid becoming the subject of government experimentation, but Max risks blowing their cover to save the life of his childhood sweetheart Liz. As ...
...at risk. Keep watching as a fourth (and then more) aliens are uncovered and as the teenagers struggle not to let their feeling for each other become any more than platonic. A second alien race, a pregnancy and a special group of the FBI all threaten to uncover and destroy the aliens and their friends, and not all of them will survive. ...

Review of Roswell - Seasons One To Three (Box Set) (DVD)

Season 2 - All you need to know

Advantages: All of Season 2 on DVD plus Special Features
Disadvantages: Price

...my opinion yes, I love Star Trek and I am a Star Trek fan and although season 2 of Voyager was pre-Seven of Nine there were still quite a few good episodes. I agree it is not the best season that Voyager had done but there are good episodes such as: Twisted, where the whole of the ship is twisted and Chakotay actually gets to do something even if his decision is to do nothing. Resistance is also a good episode and gets the main stars out of the ship. ...

Atlantis Season 2 - When it really takes off

Advantages: Really building on the first season
Disadvantages: Will still need to own season 1 to understand everything

Season 2 of Atlantis really did move the show into great sci-fi. The addition of Ronan to the cast was a much needed move. Ford in the first season was an ok character but I never really felt that he was interesting enough to be more than a recurring guest star. I think the writing on the show got better over the second season with some great episodes and drama/comedy. The acting is brilliant, with all the characters managing to become deeper along ...
...Atlantis got its own in-house special effects for season 2 and you can really notice the difference. They really take the CGI up a notch in season 2 with some amazing space battles. The introduction of the Earth ship Daedalus really gives them a chance to show more aswell instead of last seasons puddle jumper shots. On the dvd there are some nice special features including featurettes about the show and my favourites, the commentaries which are ...

Review of Stargate Atlantis - Series 2 - Complete (DVD)

Could the Ori spell the end for SG-1?

Advantages: New characters and fantastic CGI scenes
Disadvantages: Some very predictable storylines

...on base, General Landry (played by Beu Bridges) and the new team leader for SG-1, former F-302 pilot Lt. Colonel Cameron Mitchel (played by Farscapes Ben Browder). This not only gives the show a new leading lineup, but an interesting change in the way things work around at stargate command. ...

Tenchi x3

Advantages: Three in one box set, decent plots fun characters,
Disadvantages: A bit repetitive and predictable at times

Tenchi Masaki is your typical high school lad until one summer he disobeys his grandpa and invades his family shrine releasing the beautiful demon, space pirate Ryoko (in the OVA). Or in the tv series he finds her space ship crashed and her lying unconscious on his way to school. She is then followed by the first princess of jurai Ayeka (an alien planet powered by space trees) and her little sister Sasami who are looking for their step brother Yosho ...
...nothing better than to use Tenchi as her personal guinnea pig In a matter of days Tenchi's house is filled with beautiful women and through a series of attacks from space enemies it is discovered that Tenchi's grandpa is really a member of the Jurai Royal Family and so Tenchi is the first crown prince with special powers of the space trees. The Tenchi muyo (not muya) series was originally released as an OVA or short series in the early 90s followed ...
