Babylon 5 - The Complete Fourth Season

Buy This Item Babylon 5 - The Complete Fourth Season by Warner Home Video  Available from Amazon  $41.99  on 9-20-2008     The future begins - or ends - here and now. Here is the huge space station Babylon 5. Now is the fateful year 2261. Commander John Sheridan has already declared the station free, breaking the ties between it and Earth Alliance. It was perhaps only a matter of time before he would have to fight to remain free. That time has come in this complete 22-episode fourth-season adventure presented on six discs and featuring an exciting array of exclusive extras.<br />Running Time: 966 min. Format: DVD MOVIE Reader Reviews Okay, so, yeah, I'm a big fan of B5, blah blah blah. I'm not going to write a content review because if you're getting the fourth season, you probably know a thing or two about one of the best SF series of all time. No, I want to praise the collection itself. The CDs in each set are beautiful. Each set is color coded to the box it comes in. Each season comes in 6 disks, all clearly numbered and illustrated. The disks themselves play on every DVD player I've ever put them in. No funny tricks or anything beyond the basic DVD format, and work like a charm in the crappiest of DVD players. Enormous attention was given to the crafting of the disks: no commercials, production ads, or other time-sensitive garbage. Even the FBI warning is tacked onto the end of the last episode of each disk. The disk can be played without a remote. By default, subtitles are turned off, the title track is played and the disk automatically cues up to a "play all episodes" choice; just hit play and enjoy. But, of course you can delve in, change settings, even skip straight to a specific scene, yadda... The only down side is the small number of episodes with commentaries or additional info. I really enjoy getting into the heads of the people who make entertainment, listen to in-jokes, bloopers, etc. But this series has, usually, 3 episodes a season for which they've elected to create a commentary track, and no more. Sure the final disk has a couple of other extras (making of clips, etc) but very skimpy on the second audio track. All in all, my favorite season, of my favorite show, on my the best disks in my collection.
