Review(s): DVD La Femme Nikita - The Complete Second Season
Completely amazing!
La femme nikita is by far the best series ever produced. Peta Wilson and Roy Dupuis make this season purely electrifying. If you haven't seen La Femme Nikita before go buy the first season and then buy this one...I can promise you you won't be dissapointed. I've waited months for the second season to come out on DVD and i can only pray that the third season is released soon after that so i don't die of the anticipation!!!
Perfect!
Bought the first season, watched it straight in one sitting. Was a fan of the series while it was running and am so glad that the DVD is out. La Femme Nikita is undeniably one of the best written 'Spy/Secret Agent' TV shows ever produced. Writing was great and twist and turns are almost always unpredictable. Peta Wilson grasped the role so well and she potrayed it like how it should be. The costumes, sets and supporting cast are equally good. Compared to Alias, LFN wins hands down. Jennifer Gardner might look good. But the show is a bit too "americanised" and she doesn't look the part, she is too emotional and looks too fragile. LFN is cool, steely, stylish and intelligent. Not to mention costumes by Diesel and CoSTUME NATIONAL. Keep seasons 3, 4 and 5 coming!
Happy to hear #2 is coming on DVD soon !!!
The minute I heard that Season #2 was coming out on DVD, I went online and bought it. I hope everyone gets as much enjoyment and excitement at watching and reflecting on this show as I had. Very good show, much better than most of the diluted, basement-level quality shows on currently.

Longtime La Femme Nikita fans and newcomers alike will enjoy this six-disc boxed set, which compiles the syndicated television series' entire first season, and shows why it garnered a devoted audience throughout its five-season run (1997-2001): it's a fast-paced, action-packed mixture of sex appeal (thanks to the statuesque form of its star, Australian actress Peta Wilson) and intricately plotted espionage thrills. Producers Joel Surnow and Robert Cochran (who later created 24) hewed the series' framework closely to its inspiration--Luc Besson's 1990 theatrical feature of the same name--save for one change. Where the movie Nikita is a drug-addicted thug, Wilson's Nikita is a street-savvy homeless woman. The pilot, "Nikita" (on disc 1), details her introduction to the...

The third season of Alias found super spy Sydney Bristow (Jennifer Garner) waking up in Hong Kong with a monster hangover and two years in the future with nary a memory. What's worse, her world has been turned upside-down with the evil Sloane (Ron Rifkin) now a world-famous humanitarian and philanthropist, and, even worse, her true love Vaughn (Michael Vartan) married to a seemingly great gal. Nice way to go back to work, eh? After coming up with one heck of a cliffhanger in season 2, Alias proceeded a bit aimlessly through these 22 episodes, and as a result, the parts were truly greater than the whole. With Lena Olin no longer around as Syd's duplicitous mother, and the addition of admirable yet bland Melissa George as Vaughn's wife Lauren, Garner found herself for the...

The sixth season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer followed the logic of plot and character development into some gloomy places. The year begins with Buffy being raised from the dead by the friends who miss her, but who fail to understand that a sacrifice taken back is a sacrifice negated. Dragged out of what she believes to have been heavenly bliss, she finds herself "going through the motions" and entering into a relationship with the evil, besotted vampire Spike just to force her emotions. Willow becomes ever more caught up in the temptations of magic; Xander and Anya move towards marriage without ever discussing their reservations; Giles feels he is standing in the way of Buffy's adult independence; Dawn feels neglected. What none of them need is a menace that is, at this point,... More Info about this DVD Actor(s): Sarah Michelle Gellar DVD Release Date: Released the 25 May 2004 Usually ships in 24 hours

In the third season of Angel, the titular vampire with a soul was forced to stand alone thanks to the (temporary) death of his beloved Buffy and her show's move to a new network, with no crossover between the two allowed. He returns from seeking peace in a demon-haunted monastery to find the L.A. Angel Investigations team fighting supernatural crime in his absence. Fred is still haunted by the nightmare dimension from which they rescued her; Cordelia's visions get ever more painful and debilitating. The schemes of the evil law firm Wolfram and Hart become every more imaginative and dragon lady Lilah Morgan becomes even more of an enemy when lusting after Angel. Unbelievably, Darla, Angel's vampire sire and lover, turns up, pregnant with his child and is tortured by inexplicable...

The fifth season of Joss Whedon's hit series started out in excellent form as slayer extraordinaire Buffy Summers (Sarah Michelle Gellar) did battle with the most famous of vampires (that Dracula guy) and then went on to spar with another nemesis, little sister Dawn (Michelle Trachtenberg). Wait--Buffy has a teenage sister? Where has she been the past four years? And why is everyone acting like she's always been around? Turns out that young Dawn is actually "The Key," a form of pure energy that, true to its name, helps open the gates between different dimensions. To protect said key from falling into the wrong hands, a group of monks gave it human form and sent it to the fiercely protective Buffy for safekeeping, creating new memories of Dawn for everyone as if she'd existed......
