This is a great science fiction series that it not to be missed by anyone that doesn't mind a little bit of kookiness in their TV Shows. Its not for everyone, but if you are a fan of Star Trek, Star Wars, Firefly/Serenity, or Battlestar Galactica then you will have no problem getting into this series.
The series used to be very expensive in season sets but this is a much better price. There are two things that are cons about this, only one could have been helped and Best Buy fixed the other on their own!
1.) The finale of the series was a miniseries called The Peacekeeper Wars. This is owned by another company, so it could not be combined with the series. Best Buy has created a box set with the Peacekeeper Wars included (not sure how they did this and if it is a limited thing). So that was solved. Its not that big of a deal because you can get the miniseries for around $9 online at various retailers.
2.) What is NOT good about this and that could have been avoided was putting the seasons in a ridiculous box that you literally have to pry open every time you want to take a season out, destroying it a little more each time. You almost want to just throw the stupid box away.
Overall, a GREAT product with only one main flaw knocking it one star (and it would be a 4.5 if that was allowed). Definitely must buy!
What's great about it: The complete series in one box at a decent price!
What's not so great: Box it come in is a just a closed box
