 So-So Packaging June 24, 2009
C. Carpenter (Hicksville, NY United States)
Upon opening the first season/premiere episode package, there were three disks in a 2-disk holder. One of the disks was just losely thrown in with the other two, with no place to hold three disks. Disappointed.
 Awesome series! March 10, 2009
Leslie Puckett (Newport News, VA USA)
I loved this series when it was on tv and was thrilled to find out the whole complete series was on dvd. It was definitely worth the price I paid for it. I'll watch it again and again!
Great to watch and i did not know untill i bought it! February 28, 2009

This is a fun and interesting show,its a little x-files and a little moonlighting and its great.The price for the complete series is awesome and no matter what youre in the mood for this series oddly enough fits the bill .One of the best places i've ever dropped $20.
Everything but the movies February 20, 2009
William F. Hostman (Eagle River, AK United States)
This excellent collection covers the TV series quite well. The pilot is a remake of the theatrical movie; the reshoot resulted in a recast, and that lead to a whole new take on the main characters.
Fundamentally, Alien Nation is a two-themed work: (1) Police Drama (2) Social Commentary about racism in the modern world. Both themes are very evident, and in one's face, and both drive the series in interesting directions.
Gary Graham, playing Matthew Sykes, brings to life a character who doesn't realize how bigoted he really is, and over the course of the season, begins to realize just what a jerk he really is, and to overcome his own prejudices.
Eric Pierpont, playing George Sam Francisco, is the alien beat cop skipped over the humans by affirmative action protocols. Eric's take on George is very different in manerisms than Mandy Patinkin (who played George in the Theatrical movie), and is a strong, self-confident character.
The conversion to DVD is excellent, and the series was top-notch. (Yet another case of finding the audience only after being canceled!)
The story does not end with the series, however... it concludes with a series of Made-for-TV-Movies, which are not in this collection. Familiarity with the original theatrical release is neither essential nor harmful.
