You can pick up the set of season 1 and season 2 on the cheap at the moment. Who knows how long the sale will last but as of the time of writing this, you can get them both for just about $15 apiece. That’s much less than the average cost of buying each episode online and it’s a significant discount on the list price of $29.98 for each DVD set.
I’ve already written about each of these Eureka DVD sets, so just click the images to read more.
With the Eureka Season 1 DVD, we get to ride along as Jack Carter becomes Sheriff of this super secret government sponsored town of geniuses who need someone uniquely able to keep things under control when the scientists can’t.

Fans of Eureka will want to start their DVD collection with the Eureka Season 1 box set not only because it’s the beginning of a great series but because it’s the kind of season you’ll want to watch over and over.
My personal favorites of this season include the fantastic pilot episode, which hooked me on Eureka immediately. Many Happy Returns really opened my mind up to the possibilities of Eureka and made it clear Eureka was something different. I enjoyed Alienated and Right as Raynes for the early look into Jo’s life. Finally, Once in a Lifetime brought the season to a dramatic close and is an episode that packs a lot of emotional punch. It’s been nice to see how it has all come together in later seasons after going back to watch this one yet again, now that season 4 has come to a close.

The Eureka Season 2 DVD is a collection of episodes that are perfect for watching again and again.

The thing about the season 2 DVD box set is that you’ll want to watch it all the time. It has a collection of some awesome Eureka episodes, and some of them are my personal all time favorites from Eureka.
Noche de Suenos is fantastic. Despite everything that’s happened with the characters’ lives, romantically speaking, I still laugh at this one with its Fargo/Zorro/Stark/Jo scene. It is spectacular and I know it makes no sense but this still makes me long for romance between two characters who couldn’t be more different–or wrong for each other. The introduction of Zane in E=MC…? is hard to beat, but Maneater just about does it. Unpredictable has one of my favorite scenes of the series, with Carter barely able to stand in gale force winds. You really have to see it at least ten times to enjoy it the most… ;-)
While those are all fun episodes, Phoenix Rising and Try, Try Again sets Henry on a path that scared me, for him. I shouldn’t have worried because in the long run, it all works out for the good of everyone, but his arc is mysterious and dark and adds a lot to season 2.

I like season 3 of Eureka because it has a lot of great episodes. Fans of the show are going to know that things change pretty dramatically in the first episode of season 4, but if you want those changes to have any kind of impact, you have to have watched season 3 and really understand where the show and characters are at the end of the season. Besides, season 3 is great and it has some really terrific episodes. Just see my list of favorites at the bottom of this page.
Season 3 of Eureka has 2 DVD sets: Eureka Season 3.0 DVD set and Eureka Season 3.5 DVD set. This was the first season Eureka’s DVD sets were split into two parts, probably because season 1 and season 2 had fewer episodes and a lengthy hiatus separated the two halves of season 3.
Eureka Season 3.0 DVDClick the image or link to see this set at Amazon.
So much happens in this first half of season 3 that it makes it almost impossible to summarize without spoiling something. I can say that characters come and go, and one of them I’ll miss until the bittersweet end of the series.
Eureka Season 3.5 DVDClick the image or link to see this set at Amazon.
In season 3.5, I enjoyed the foray into romance. Characters develop quite a bit and fun, interesting things happen to almost everyone in at least one episode.
I have watched all of these episodes multiple times, for a variety of reasons. Some are just plain fun, while some have heart and simply deserve to be watched more than once.
A lot of people complain about DVD sets that have only half a season of episodes on them. Although I would prefer a complete season set myself, I don’t mind these kind of sets. They don’t usually cost any more per episode than series like Chuck, which are quite expensive for the whole season.
If you go the digital route and buy the episodes online from somewhere like Amazon you are going to pay less than the combo of the season 3.0 and 3.5 DVD sets. But what’s the fun in that when you’ll miss out on the extras?
The Eureka Season 4.0 DVD contains approximately half of the episodes that make up Eureka’s season 4. The Eureka Season 4.5 DVD contains the remaining half of the episodes.
The lastest Christmas episode (Do You See What I See?) is not on the 4.5 DVD set but O’ Little Town is, along with the Warehouse 13 episode Don’t Hate the Player featuring a heavy dose of Fargo.
What made season 4 special was the sudden changes that occurred with the end of the first episode of the season. After an event that changed the timeline, Eureka’s history was just different enough to be interesting but not so much as to fundamentally change the show I already loved.
Fans of the series certainly won’t want to skip either half of season 4. The fourth season was drawn out over a two year period so it’s easy to be confused about what’s in season 4 and what’s not. Between both DVD sets, you’ll have all the season 4 episodes (except Do You See What I See?, see below), plus extra features, and an episode of Warehouse 13.
The Eureka TV series is certainly a TV series that’s fun and memorable enough to own on DVD. Episodes are enjoyable even the third and fourth times around, and the characters are smart and interesting, and stay true to form in season 4 despite everything.
There’s been enough character development over the course of the show to make the season 4 changes important and significant to me. The sudden shift in the lives of Eureka’s residents, such as Jo, Allison, Fargo and Henry, bring season 4 to life.
If you haven’t seen Eureka’s season 4, don’t miss it. Buy the complete season 4 DVD set: Eureka 4.0 and Eureka 4.5. Click on the images above, or follow the links to buy Eureka at Amazon or read more reviews 0f Eureka’s season 4 DVD sets.

Finally, you can preorder either the Falling Skies DVD or Falling Skies Blu-ray for the complete season 1!
When a show as good as this one comes out on DVD, I add it to my collection. The price is excellent too, at below $30 right now for the entire Falling Skies season 1 DVD, and under $35 for the Falling Skies season 1 Blu-ray.
What is it about Falling Skies that makes it something science fiction fans will want to buy? The series takes on the story of an alien invasion and turns it into an thrilling mystery, that’s why.
Noah Wyle and Moon Bloodgood are great at what they do, and it shows in their portrayals of their characters, Tom Mason and Anne Glass. Colin Cunningham, however, is the breakout actor/character for this show for me. I saw him in many episodes of the Stargate TV series, but I never thought of him as spectacular or great, but in Falling Skies, as Pope, he really shines as an actor, bringing John Pope to life as a crazy gang leader turned prisoner who might not be so crazy after all.
Although I liked every episode, in my opinion particularly good episodes from season one of Falling Skies include Prisoner of War (episode 3), Grace (episode 4), What Hides Beneath (episode 8), Mutiny (episode 9), and Eight Hours (episode 10).
Don’t miss the opportunity to get in on the preorder price guarantee to get the best price Amazon offers if you’re even sort of thinking of purchasing the Falling Skies DVD or Blu-ray set. There’s no specific release date listed, but it’s inevitable the sets will be out before the new season starts next summer.

For the moment, The Walking Dead Season 1 DVD is at a special price, heavily discounted on Amazon. Fans of this Emmy-winning, groundbreaking series, can buy the Season 1 DVD for their collection at a fantastic price.
This series is recommended for fans of zombies, apocalypse disaster stories, and anyone with a strong stomach!
I’m writing about this because I personally have just recently discovered this series (on Netflix) and the price is just a bit over the cost of a single movie ticket. The 2 disc set has 6 episodes and runs for 292 minutes. That’s a much better deal than a movie and then I get to watch each episode as many times as I want, like reading a good book all over again.
There’s a page about the season 1 DVD set for The Walking Dead, or for more information about The Walking Dead series itself.
You might like this TV show if you like disaster stories, apocalypse stories, or outbreak stories. I enjoy it, and I enjoy all those things!
True Blood: The Complete Third Season was released at the end of May 2011 to an impressive collection of favorable reviews and comments.
These 12 episodes mark the introduction of several new characters, many twists and turns, and new "supes" to keep things interesting.
Fans of the series are probably going to want to buy the True Blood season 3 DVD box set and add this season to their collection, if for no other reason than that the show has begun to take on a more expansive feel as subplots thicken and what we know about the community of Bon Temps deepens.
Special features include everything from "Anatomy of a Scene" to a Snoop Dogg "Oh Sookie" video. There are also episode commentaries for 6 episodes.

The Warehouse 13 Season 1 DVD is on sale at a significant discount. If you’re a fan and you’ve been thinking about owning this excellent science fiction TV series, this is probably the best chance you have to get a great price on the DVD box set of the entire first season. Check the price before you buy.
Warehouse 13 is about two secret service agents who save the president’s life and end up transferred to "Warehouse" number 13 where items and artifacts that have some connection to the paranormal are stored. As Warehouse agents, Myka and Pete are tasked with finding and collecting artifacts that are dangerous or powerful and bringing them back to the warehouse where they’re neutralized.
I enjoy owning DVD box sets for a variety of reasons, including the idea that I can watch whenever I want without having to worry that there’ll be no repeats or that some online service will quit streaming the episodes.
Because I’ve already had the opportunity to watch both season 1 and season 2, and season 3 is airing, it’s easy to see that the series is getting better with time. The series started off well, but as it matures, Warehouse 13 had developed into a great little fun and entertaining science fiction television series that’s family friendly but adult enough to keep anyone interested.
Purchase the Warehouse 13 Season 1 DVD Box Set if you like quirky and fun and watch (or rewatch) season 1.

Warehouse 13 stars Eddie McClintock, Joanne Kelly, Saul Rubinek, and others, all great at bringing the characters of Warehouse 13 to life.
Read on to see the list of episodes that are included in the season 2 DVD set. If you buy the DVD, you’ll want to know that the Christmas episode isn’t on the DVDs. It’s my understanding that Secret Santa is going to be released separately.
There are many great episodes on this DVD set that I enjoyed watching, including my favorites Merge with Caution, Age Before Beauty, Around the Bend, and Vendetta.
I think the show is improved from season 1, although I admit I’ve always liked it. Season 2 brought Myka and Pete closer together, but there’s not any real romantic spark between the two, who seem more like brother and sister than anything else. It’s a great show though, and well worth watching for the second or even the fourth or fifth time.
