2003 was a popular year for the Hulk and all of his fans. In anticipation of the 2003 Hulk film that would be released in theaters that summer, the Hulk got a lot of media exposure. There were tons of DVD releases of episodes and TV movies from the original TV series, video games, other merchandise, etc. A few months after the 2003 Hulk movie was in and out of theaters, Universal decided to release a 6 disc DVD set of episodes from the Incredible Hulk TV series. The set was contained episodes from seasons 1 through 4 that were considered to be "fan favorites". While that might be true to an extent, I highly doubt every episode on here was a fan favorite, but I'll get more into that later. For now, here are the episodes featured on this big collection.

Disc 1:

Rainbow's End (season 2)

Another Path (season 2)

The Disciple (season 2)

Disc 2:

It must be very difficult, putting together a "Best of" collection, given the fact that everybody has an iron-clad opinion on what is considered the "best."  That being said, it was nice to see the "genesis" of some of the great characters developed over the years by this stellar group of performers:  Count Floyd, Bobby Bittman, Johnny Larue, Edith Prickley...the list goes on and on.

If I had any complaints:

1.  I would have liked one more disk of shows.

2.  I would have liked a better quality of commentary; quite often, the commentary seemed off the topic, and although I think Robin Duke is a wonderful performer, I would have preferred to have Moranis, or Thomas, or even Levy do some.  I add as a caveat:  I thought the sections with Andrea Thomas and the news footage of the "McKenzie Phenomenon" was a fine addition.

The quality of these stories can hardly be overstated, and they benefit hugely from having the original illustrations with them. They also give a feel of the period the stories were set in, which helps bring them to life in the reader's mind.

If you're a Holmes fan, this is a good bet. If you haven't yet tried them, this is a good place to start.

I think I started watching this originally during the second or third season. I've watched the first ten episodes of the first season so far and have enjoyed them. It's interesting to see how budgets went up as the show progressed. Special effects are few in the early shows.

For the millions of fans who could not afford the original box sets of "Bewitched" when they came out years agao Sony is nicely offering the season sets at a new remarkable price. In this outing you get Season 5 and Season 6 of the greatest supernatural comedy ever yt thbroadcast. These seasons were very important years in the history of "Bewitched" as producers knew that Dick York (the original Darren) could not continue with the weekly series due to severe back pain. In Season 4 York had missed multiple episodes, so when the sixth season began and Dick York collapsed on the set producers knew he had to be replaced. In Season 6 another Dick came on, Dick Sargent, a more nice and calmer Darren. The sixth year saw a brand new opening with the same music, but the magic was missing. The chemistry between Elizabeth Montgomery and Sargent was nit evident and as a result ratings went down the toilet. Also as anyone in sitcom knows by the fifth year ideas run dry and "Bewitched" was no different. Old scripts from past seasons were reused but rewritten and the show lagged on.

 The price for these two seasons on DVD is remarkable! It is a great way to begin your collection of "Bewitched". For those of you who do not know there are NO special features which was the case in previous "Bewitched" DVD releases.

I have been a fan of the Ctrl-Alt-Del comic for almost three years and have followed it up to the current day. While I approve of this publication of the popular online comic series (as I imagine it will continue to include the almost eight years that this comic has been in existence), the comic is easily available online and paying the full price for this relatively short collection seems difficult to justify. However, if you are a hardcore fan or a comic collector with the time and money to devote to the first print publication of the enormous series, it is a worthy buy.

Also, check out the animated series that originated from this comic; it gives the characters much stronger personalities and different interpretations than expected. [...]

As interesting today as when it first aired.

If you're a fan of the original Scooby-Doo episodes, then this one's for you. These are what started it all. So enjoy as I already am.

I have to admit it:  I'm a big fan of this show's monster/robot/outer space alien stories.  They scared the crud out of me when I was a kid, so even if they look completely ridiculous now, they are colored by my fond memories.  It's fantastic that all 4 seasons are now available on DVD, and I'm using this book as a guide as I watch them again, episode by episode.  What surprises me the most is how serious the first black and white season was.  It contained some honestly good performances and stories, which I had originally dismissed as boring.  As "Voyage" became more "colorful and imaginative" (shall we say),  the cast, led by Richard Basehart and David Hedison, never broke character.  They treated the material with the utmost gravity and seriousness. And therein lay its staying power.  Neither leprechauns, nor puppets, nor wax mannequins could make these guys crack a smirk.  They gave it their all.  This book is giving me a very pleasurable trip down memory lane.  It is a treasure trove of information about the episodes, the actors, the creators and the fans.  I'm having a blast with it!

This is an interesting volume that shows a lot of the creative process. However, like the show, the volume appears to have been made on a sort of limited budget. This soft cover volume is just good enough, and will not compete with fancier coffee table books.  Readers may be surprised that the sketches and prototypes of props, sets, and costumes are often crude, compared to things made for today's movies and television shows. The tools of those days don't compare to those of today. Of course, many times the final product was only good enough to get the ideas on the televison screen. It will serve as an inspiration to those making films today, whom feel that they can and will make improvements to the art. Recommended for artists, filmmakers and hard core fans of Star Trek shows. Part of the ever growing library of Star Trek books.

Those of us who lived in the Baltimore Area were lucky to have the FANEX Conventions here. A fan-based set of conventions, these cons brought to town a wide variety of actors we used to watch on the late late horror shows. The stories they would tell! Hammer Films are my favorites, along with Universal, of course. Because of FANEX, I got to meet some of the premier actors of Hammer- Caroline Munro, Ingrid Pitt, Martine Beswick, Veronica Carlson, Michael Ripper, and my fav, Yutte Stensgaard. Now recordings from those cons have been put together in this slick documentary on Hammer. Interviews with those in front of, and behind, the cameras make for a fascinating tale about movie-making. Some of the stories will make you laugh, some will make you feel sentimental- like when Christopher Lee talks about Peter Cushing. But it will entertain you no end. Sadly, some of these folks are no longer with us, but that's what makes this a keeper. And the price is a real deal. If you like Hammer, you should add this to your DVD library.

Very clever presentation of the 60's series episodes. These would have been brilliant advertisements! A really fun read for the fan, and fun to have folks unfamiliar with '60 series look at and then watch the episodes.

The old Baltimore Opera Co. hands call this book "the Silver book." It contains pages of concise history of Baltimore's first fully professional opera venture from its humble beginnings.

Consider it part-history, part-yearbook of patrons past. Especially great for fans of the BCO's first director: Rosa Ponselle.

Lots of pictures in black and white tell the story side by side with narratives.

While not glamorous, this book is a snapshot in time of opera as it was in America circa 1950s-1960s.

My copy even contained membership marketing materials, by chance, from the first BCO season I ever attended in 1995. Brought back a few memories.

As I interview patrons for a story on Baltimore's opera revival (Lyric Opera Baltimore) I find that there are much more colorful tales from the early days that still need to be collected and told. Hope I can do so.

I've been a fan of Star Trek:TNG right from the beginning.  I'll admit that I agree with what some other reviewers have said in that the shows were not up to the quality of season three on, but always remember that no show does well in its first season and that they were still trying to build an audience.  Despite this, they came up with some great stories that I count among my favorite episodes of the series.  This includes, "11001001", "The Big Goodbye", "We'll Always Have Paris", "Angel One", "The Arsenal Of Freedom", "Skin Of Evil", and "Conspiracy."
All in all, this first season collection on DVD is a great start to one of the best Sci-Fi shows on television, and will help you rediscover what made you a fan in the first place.
TRUST ME, IT ONLY GETS BETTER!
