I was a little worried by the price of this set as it was very low, however when the DVD's arrived I was very happy to find that they were original UK discs. They arrived quickly and very well packed. Don't take a chance buy from this seller. Review ID: 10000000009011302 Was this review helpful? Report this review Review created: 06/09/08 by: An absolutely brilliant series, which just seems to go from strength to strength. Great plot line(s), a must view for Sci Fi fans! The only down side is that it is very addictive and you have to keep watching :-) Review ID: 10000000008601124 Was this review helpful? Report this review Review created: 19/07/08 by: The new Battlestar Glactica goes from strength to strentgth, I watched the first series in a mad 48 hrs and am already gripped on the second. The ideas, political agitation, democracy, threat from within, surprise and engage the viewer at every moment. Each character is well drawn and the most cliched, a female starbuck has a depth and ambiquity that belies the seemingly superficail idea behind her creation. Interestingly in a secular society, a mainstream tv drama dealing directly with religious beliefs, the president is fortold in the ancient scriptures, the programes equivelant of the old testament shows a bravery of the writers and producers not to talk down to their viewers. It is without doubt one of the best tv shows currently broadcasting and if the above puts you off in the belief this is a pretentious and staid programme, believe me you would be wrong, the special effects and action scenes are of the highest calibre and will put you in awe of it. Go out and see it now. Review ID: 10000000008023628 Was this review helpful?

Report this review Tense - Dramatic - Emotional - Gripping - a rollercoaster ride fuelled by excellent scripting and acting. This is not the usual plastic Star Trek type Sci-Fi, it is gritty and unsettling in parts, covering all the awkward themes of human survival. It is a must watch series.

I think it's better than the original. Review ID: 10000000006921973 Was this review helpful? Report this review 1 of 1 people found this review helpful. Have looked closely at the product delivered, and all disks havge been looked after and are clean and free from marks. I have played the first episode and it played sweetly with no hickups in sound and picture quality. I have every faith and confidence that the rest of the DVD disks will play as well as the first. Why did I buy this item? Well I am an avid follwoer of quality Sci-Fi, and the new working of the battlestar galactica story shows a good eye for detail and solid story lines, and as they say... "God is in the detail, SO SAY WE ALL!" I will continue to hunt for and purchase the rest of the seasons as they become available. Thank you for this forum to say my part.

Delivery was superfast - less than 24 from payment. And the DVD itself is the continuation of the characters and events onboard the Galactica. Starbuck is still hot!

Review ID: 10000000005341912 Was this review helpful? Report this review Review created: 28/01/08 by: Bought this because I already had the pilot episode and season 1. Also watched and enjoyed original Battlestar Galactica from 70's. In the first season we were introduced to many of the same characters who were in the original 70's show; Adama,Starbuck,Boomer,Tigh etc. It was interesting that they changed some of the characters from male to female; Starbuck and Boomer. Also liked how the Cylons had evolved into more humanoid forms (while still keeping the Robot style Cylons as well), we only saw 4 of the new "human" Cylons in the first season. Second season continued on from were it ended in first season; Adama's assassination by Boomer(Cylon),Starbuck stranded on Caprica and Baltar,Chief and others stranded on Kobol. Really enjoyed second season with the Adama recovering and getting the fleet and crew back together; including rescuing the people from Kobol. We were introduced to 3 new "human" Cylons, still 5 more to discover as there are meant to be 12. Second season ended with the Cylons again invading and taking prisoner the civilians and crew who were now on a new planet, Galactica and the other ships had to abandon them as they could not win in a battle with the Cylons at this time. Looking forward to season three and the continuing saga...... Review ID: 10000000005245987 Was this review helpful?

I bought this recently on EBAY, after first watching the new Mini Series and 1st season. I wasn't sure at first as a few of my friends had not been complementary about it, stating that, 'as a series it took itself far too seriously' After watching the Mini, 1st and now 2nd season, I must admit that I disagree. Battlestar boasts the best CGI effects that I have ever seen in a TV series and the characters are extremely well written, with various key story lines and arcs being offered throughout. Season 2 certainly picks up the pace and ends with a rip roaring climax which leaves me waiting in anticipation for season 3. Well done to all and I heartily recommend this series.

This collection continued the excellent plot themes commenced in the mini-series and first season. The cast were well chosen and they deliver their roles with aplomb. There were some notable guest appearances from Michelle Forbes, Lucy Lawless and Dean Stockwell. There is a 'cliff hanger' ending to the season. One disappointment was that the region 2 set does not include all the 'extras' found on the region 1 discs, only the extras from the first half of the season. Nevertheless it was still very enjoyable and I am eagerly looking forward to watching the third season. Review ID: 10000000004094150 Was this review helpful?

Hi all, firstly i'm a 49 yr old and been brought up with the sci-fi era, and can say this is an excellent series, since my 30yr old son had the 1st series boxed set we was hooked, although the 3rd season is now finished and we are kind of just catching up, this is much better than that 'Lost' that all the teenagers rave on about, my wife and i cant wait for the 3rd boxed set to appear, and also my younger teenage son is also now hooked, although an old story its a fantastic re-run, much superior to the original, and bang up to date with the special effects and acting quality, there is a lot of shaking throughout the series, a little over the top but does not detract from the whole feel of this superb space production,...thank you.

I had seen odd episodes of this on a UK satelite chaneel, but never managed to get into it - I think it may have been the constant adverts. Having sat down with this, I found the series very gripping and gritty, not at all like the 70s series, and nothing like any of the over sanitised Star Trek series. Each episode stands in its own right, but several storylines run the length of the series. I really enjoyed it, and would recommend it to anyone. I cant wait for the next series to be available (I decided not to bother with the advert ridden tv channel again). Buy It! Review ID: 10000000003308358 Was this review helpful?
