Positively Sinful! - so make that Three AND-a-HALF Stars!

These girls was naughty; what with their provocative squats and the scantily-clad nature of their almost-costumes.
Many people blame the cheesy scripts and amateurish acting for having gotten the show cancelled; the truth is that hate-driven little store-front "churches" all over America waged vicious letter-writing campaigns against the show and bullied their local stations into taking it off the air.
Thanks be to Bob Almighty that we were saved from these vixens' naughtiness by those good folks' moral superiority - we might've laughed out loud and offended Bob!
The very idea of an underground society of human beings fighting a ruling class of robots for survival is a blasphemous affront to the one-true-Bob (praise His Holy Name!).
Unless, of course, it was MEANT to be satirical . . .
Hmmm.
Could that be it?
If you missed the humor the first time around, here's a chance to dig it again and corrupt your mortal soul!

too bad this program did not last as long as Xena or Hercules i'm glad it came on dvd even though it was short lived
Two Super Buff Chicks With Gauntlets and That Other One
I started watching "Cleopatra 2525" out of boredom. It aired at like midnight on Saturdays next to "Jack of All Trades". Single mom with nothing to do except watch a bit of mindless TV or go to bed. After a few weeks, it became my routine to stay up and watch these shows. They were campy and I didn't know I was the campy type.
Cleopatra was the beginning of my girls kick [...]/rear/derriere TV phase. Thank goodness it came out on DVD so I can watch some girls kick [...] whenever I want.
Alright, to start with I have read all the reviews to date and decided I had to write my own. The lack of special features is the only valid complaint with the DVD set. As many others have already said it really would have been nice to have some input from the cast/crew. And the packaging is not the greatest out there. As with any series but scifi in particular, you have to take the good with the bad. If you are looking for comedy buy a comedy and if you are looking for Shakespearean dialogue look elsewhere. However if you consider yourself a TRUE scifi fan, then Earth 2 is a must. There are those that say the stories have been done and the aliens are not original. I can say the same for ANY scifi series out there. Earth 2 takes these so called "old" themes and puts an original...

Despite voluminous protest and nitpicking criticism from loyal fans of the original 1978-80 TV series, the 2003 version of Battlestar Galactica turned out surprisingly well for viewers with a tolerance for change. Originally broadcast on the Sci-Fi Channel in December 2003 and conceived by Star Trek: The Next Generation alumnus Ronald D. Moore as the pilot episode for a "reimagined" TV series, this four-hour "miniseries" reprises the basic premise of the original show while giving a major overhaul (including some changes in gender) to several characters and plot elements. Gone are the flowing robes, disco-era hairstyles, and mock-Egyptian fighter helmets, and thankfully there's not a fluffy "daggit" in sight... at least, not yet. Also missing are the "chrome toaster" Cylons,... More Info about this DVD Director(s): Michael Rymer DVD Release Date: Released the 28 December 2004 Usually ships in 24 hours

Battlestar Galactica's Edward James Olmos wasn't kidding when he said "the series is even better than the miniseries." As developed by sci-fi TV veteran Ronald D. Moore, the "reimagined" BG is exactly what it claims to be: a drama for grown-ups in a science-fiction setting. The mature intelligence of the series is its greatest asset, from the tenuous respect between Galactica's militarily principled commander Adama (Olmos) and politically astute President Roslin (Mary McDonnell) to the barely suppressed passion between ace Viper pilot "Apollo" (a.k.a. Adama's son Lee, played by Jamie Bamber) and the brashly insubordinate Starbuck (Katee Sackhoff), whose multifaceted character is just one of many first-season highlights. Picking up where the miniseries ended (it's included... More Info about this DVD DVD Release Date: Released the 20 September 2005 Usually ships in 24 hours

The first and only spin-off of Babylon 5, J. Michael Straczynski's short-lived sci-fi series Crusade had its roots in the B5 television movie A Call to Arms, in which Earth was battling a Drakh invasion at the end of the Shadow Wars. When Crusade begins, the Drakh have released a deadly virus that threatens to wipe out all 10 billion humans living on Earth unless a cure can be found in five years. To take on this monumental task, Captain Matthew Gideon (Gary Cole) is assigned command of the state-of-the-art Destroyer-class ship Excalibur. His crew includes telepath John Matheson (Daniel Dae Kim); pompous but brilliant archaeologist-linguist Max Eilerson (David Allen Brooks); Dureena, a member of the Thieves' Guild and the last surviving member...

Whoever designed the cases/discs for both of the Sliders sets so far needs to be fired. Both cases are a huge risk to the discs. In the first one, its pretty easy to scratch them against one another. And this one is even worse!!! The double-sided discs wouldn't have been a problem if they hadn't arranged the case the way they did. Having to take the top disc out to get to the bottom disc? Absolutely ridiculous!. And you practically have to hold the case open with both hands just to open it wide enough to get the discs out without scratching them. Then, you've got no hands left to grab the disc(s)!!! If you plan on buying this series, plan on investing in a set of cases too. There's no way you should keep them in the case they come in.
