this was the most amazing TV series. I watched it religiously back in the 80's. was just gutted when it was cancelled. Why is it all the good series are cancelled. Chuck Connors gave an exemplary performance as Janos Skorzeny.

This series was supposed to go to dvd quite a while ago already, except that a few egotistical musicians wouldn't approve use of their music. I have one thing to say to them; you aren't gods. get over it. sign the release so many more can enjoy this wonderful series.

I don't watch a whole lot of television. As a grad student in literature, I watch a few shows now and then that people tell me are "revolutionary" or "amazing", and most of the time, I've been disappointed.

What makes Mad Men so great is not just that the writing is incredible, the actors are great, the sets and costumes are so immaculate and colorful, the sense of time is so shocking and so believable. It's that this show transcends what normal television seems to hit--even the "great" shows are watchable once, maybe twice before they seem to lose their edge. I've watched several of these episodes three times or more, and the sense of art and space around the characters and their inner psychology is fascinating to watch.

These characters and these plots aren't just about something amazing happening; that's what makes them so special. These are normal, powerful men and women in ideal and slightly-less-than-ideal situations, and many of them have no idea why their lives are falling apart around them.

Explorations of capitalism at its most brutal, its funniest, its most dramatic and real.

This is an incredibly amazing show. If you're interested in Medieval English history and drama, this is a really good show for you. I would watch it all over again.

There is NO other tv series that even comes close to what La Femme Nikita has done. It is truely in a class of its own: the realism, cinematography, acting and story are all top notch and hollywood movie quality, not what you expect from a tv series.
Each episode features its own story with many twists, turns, secrets and of course REALISTIC action. And all episodes connect together to tell a much bigger story/secret. All the characters in the movie progresses dramatically with the story as well.
It's so sad this series did not get the attention it deserves because it's on USA and not one of the major tv networks, while other [bad] tv series continues on.
Unless you absolutely hate covert spy movies, YOU WILL BE HOOKED AFTER WATCHING THE FIRST EPISODE.

This is the most amazing TV series I have ever seen. The action is non stop, the female actors are fantastically beautiful, the male actors are magnificent physical specimens and the sets, plot and acting are first rate.

CAUTION: If you are squeamish about extreme violence, splattering or squirting blood or explicit full frontal male and female nudity, frequent humping, then you should avoid this show. For me, those features were indispensable to the success of the show.

My only complaint is that penises are shown fully exposed but vaginas are covered by thick bush. Perhaps Brazilian waxing had not been discovered in that era, but I'm sure that bush trimming was commonplace. There is a movement to free the penis, but someone needs to work on freeing the vagina also.

My only real regret is that the series ended after season 4. I am currently midway through season 4 and will be lost when it ends. I'm not sure if any new program can even equal Spartacus much less replace it.

If you like Gladiator movies, you will quickly become addicted to this series, guaranteed.

I can't recommend this series enough.  Amazing production values.  Fantastic acting.  Great writing.  Your temptation will be to watch them back to back night after night.  But there aren't many and it is really worth savoring them.  Can't wait for the next season.

My wife and I watched this series when it was aired on TV and fell in love with it.  After purchasing a PS3 with Blu-ray capabilities, we knew that this was to be our 1st purchase to show off it's capabilities.  Wow is it beautiful.  The episode about the deep oceans is incredible.  If you've not seen this series yet, and you enjoy documentaries, you have to get this series.

From someone not really fond of British anything, this turned out to be the best entertainment ever. I couldn't wait for the next episode.  The viewer is treated with excellence from every aspect. (Best writing, directing, acting, character development, costumes, sets, cinematography and more).  Life lessons from this show will be shared wth my children for as long as I am a parent.

One of the BEST shows I have ever watched. No joke. There is something so profound, and deep about this show. The acting is incredible, with a powerful storyline that every human being can relate to - the rat race of the world, our impact - our insecurities/etc. Laura Dern is AMAZING in this, I loved her so much - I binge watched both seasons I feel so empty without it. WATCH THIS SHOW you will not regret it !!!

'Rescue Me' is one of the best shows to come along in a very long time! This Season (3)is full of the same drama, comedy and action we've come to expect from this series. It's one of the most insightful series I've ever seen and this year they've added some very intriging twists. The characters are well developed and the writing is top notch in this drama, action, and comedy series. If you haven't watched this program, you are missing one of the most entertaining series of all time. The show is shot in widescreen and the DVD transfers look excellent on a big screen. This season includes commentary and some interesting extras.

The back story and premise of the show is not the most main stream but the acting and the feelings evoking emotions from this show are outrageously addictive. I could see any demographic watching this show and enjoy it. It is dramatic, hilarious, scary and even has a love story. The brothers are amazing. This season is my favorite. The mythology and story lines are mesmerizing and semi-addictive. Of course, one should watch the series in order, but, if for some God awful reason one could only watch one season this would be that season.

This is by far one of the greatest tv series in history.  Season 5 tied everything together perfectly.  I wish there was more seasons, but good things come to an end too.  I highly recommend watching this whole series, its just too good to miss out on.

Finally got to sit down and watch it from beginning to end and its the best mini series I have ever watched. It is just amazing to men what these men accomplished and then just went back to living normal lives. Thank you.
