This box set is even better than the first. It contains some smashing episodes of my favourite series of all time. In "The Living Dead" Emma gets imprisoned in an underground city but escapes just in time to rescue Steed. The marvellous episode "The Hidden Tiger" is also included in this set. It's absolutely a five star episode in which cats can be turned into ferocious wild animals by remote control. The school for gentlemen from "The Correct Way to Kill" is also absolutely a highlight in the Avengers Series. In "Never, Never Say Die" Christopher Lee gets run down by a car twice. "Epic" is, just like "The Joker" (not included on this set), one of those episodes I most fondly remember. It's a wonderful Emma Peel episode in which see makes a ... Read More:

This is an excellent adventure written by Robert Holmes, probably the best script writer the show ever had, and who wrote some of my favourite episodes including this, plus 'Spearhead From Space', 'The Ark In Space', 'The Brain Of Morbius' - which he co-wrote with Terance Dicks under the pseudonym of Robin Bland, 'The Talons Of Weng Chiang' and 'The Caves Of Androzani'.
The Galifrey set is looking a bit dated now, but it also looked quite low-tech in 1976 as well. What really makes this a special episode for me, is the brilliant plot, plus the Doctor going through the Matrix. The Matrix is an hallaguenic dream sequence with the Doctor facing imaginary threats from the Master, plus also being chased by a Bounty Hunter. The threat ... Read More: >>More Details |

Twilight Zone The Movie was always a special film for me as it featured a return to the twisted universe of Rod Serling for veteran composer Jerry Goldsmith, who had cut his teeth on low budget shows of its kind in the late 1950s and early 1960s. When the film was announced on Blu Ray this was good news, as by and large the four segments still stand up well as stories (if you can stand the over-sentimental mawkishness of the Spielberg entry and the dire "acting" of the prologue in the car anyway...)
However, early reviews and even the reverse of the Blu Ray box stated that the sound was in mono, which put me off a lot. However, upon purchasing this I was delighted to find that the audio is actually a superb 5.1 mix, with Goldsmith's ... Read More: >>More Details |

I really like this and think it is an excellent remake and although it is probably darker overall(not in a blood and guts kind of way), I don't think that it disrespects Rod Serling's original classic in anyway. I remember seeing a few episodes of this as a child in the 1980's but not that many, it was the first version that I saw and I think that it used to be on really late so that would propably explain it. I have been collecting the original version boxsets and really liking them so I couldn't resist buying the colour versions aswell as I really like anthology shows anyway plus it gives me a chance to see all the ones that I missed.
This season one colour boxset has twenty four episodes but it actually has about fifty nine stories, ... Read More: >>More Details |

The revival of Rod Serling's legendary "Twilight Zone" was always a foolhardy, some may say foolish, project. The utterly changed landscape of television in the Eighties, the strictly commercial approach to programme making, but also the fact that fond memories had placed the original on such an unreachably high pedestal, made it almost impossible to (re)create something that would not pale by comparison. Nonetheless, the production team managed to enlist a impressively large number of great creative talents. Even so, Season One didn't do too well, both with the critics and the audience, but just well enough to generate a second series. The episodes' lengths was cut to fit a half-hour slot, giving some of the stories not enough time to develop, and CBS' ... Read More:

Avengers 1967 Box Set 4: This is the last box set of "The Avengers" first colour season. Again it's a great joy to see these lovely episodes again. Although it looks as if they can't avoid the little distortions or encoding errors, sound quality is good considering the series were made in the late sixties. The episode "The Positive-Negative Man" two times suffers from minor splats in the audio. This minor imperfection is also present in "The Forgot-Me-Knot." Overall picture quality is all right, but the image sometimes shows some scratches. I don't think it's disturbing, it merely adds a touch of nostalgia. Picture is sharp and colours are clear. The extras include a wonderful picture gallery and an introduction to Linda Thorson (Tara King). But don't ... Read More: >>More Details |

In the mid-1990's, Rod Serling's widow Carol discovered two stories by her husband, both unmade, in her garage. The first was 'The Theater,' a short story never published. The second was a full screenplay, 'Where The Dead Are,' written shortly before Rod Serling's death.
In 1994, these were made into screenplays, with Richard Matheson adapting 'The Theater' for television and 'Where The Dead Are' going out as it was written. Both were a huge disappointment. For starters, there is none of the pungent wit, energy, high quality production or interest that the original Twilight Zone presented. Indeed, labelling these under The Twilight Zone banner prove to be their greatest downfall. That demands quality, and this doesn't have any. It ... Read More: >>More Details |

For any Who fan the TV Movie is definitely worth another look.
All though it was much lambasted by some at the time the TV Movie aged surprisingly well. To set things up first you must remember that Doctor Who was unceremoniously cancelled in 1989, the last show, Survival, aired December 6th of that year. From the moment it was cancelled fans did everything possible to convince the BBC to renew the series. Nothing worked, the BBC seemed rather glad to be done with Doctor Who. A successful Book series was launched (The New Adventures of Doctor Who)with some fans becoming writers (like Paul Cornell, Mark Gatiss, Russell T Davies and Steven Moffat [IMHO Moffat wrote one of the best short stories of the era]) filling the gap left when the Doctor ...

in my opinion this is one of the strongest seasons of SG-1 not only is it the most action packed (counterstrike the quest), the funniest (200), the most character driven (flesh and blood) but it also the last which is surprisingly a good thing because it not only allows the sister show atlantis to get more noteriety but also for sg-1 to move up and up and up is the only way this great franchise can go!
