starhunter is here.......2006-12-26

I ordered the starthunter first disc, and I will now speak to only those of you that are fans of the show,

are not we now lucky to have this in our video collection?

are we not glad to be living in this time of humanity, where there will be a change IN us?

All I want is to find my son, but for now I have something to watch on my videoscreen when percy is not around, to keep me motivated in this large universe , these seven episodes of a last hope for humanity...

hope to see you soon when I get to ganymede,

your friend,

also, some more comments on the disc. The package is great, the cover and the disc printing is great, thses idiot americans expect everything to be super shiny and high resolution... idiots... but , however, when you play back the episodes off of the disc, there is a bright line running at the bottom of your screen, that stays there throughout the entire show , and that is not good. In fact, that line is very distracting when you watch these episodes, they may fix that but probably they won't because they printed thousands of these discs which cost a lot, and that would be a major fix, for upcoiming discs, but probably if they do run more then they will address it for the next production run. However, all in all, excellent product...... five stars.

I get to see percy again !!!!!!!!

The Shows Are Really Great But There's A Problem.......2006-04-30

I love this show and was hoping to have the show in it's entirity: much had been edited out for American television. But as I watched I noticed that these shows aren't in the sequence that they were aired which isn't too bad, but then I noticed something worse.

Volume 2 provides seven more great episodes of the Starhunter but the problem here is that the show's first season had twenty-two episodes so if you do the math you know that you are going to come up seven episodes short between Volumes 1 and 2. Yet there is no Volume 3 to wrap everything up in this season; rather, instead, there's a Season 2 DVD that's out where it's fifteen years later and Percy comes across a much older Travis. And in this season, Michael Pare is no longer in the show and much has chaged, though not necessarily for the better.

I can enjoy these shows on their own, but it just ticks me off that the company who produces these DVDs leaves the fans of the show dangling. Maybe if everyone writes letters the production company will release the final seven episodes. One can hope...

Great series, poor quality of reproduction.......2005-10-09

I loved the series and waited ever since it went off the air to buy the DVDs. They squeezed 7 episodes onto the DVD by using what looks like very high compression. When there is fast motion or a change of scenes there is a chance of it being blocky. The box doesn't have any inserts, the DVD label looks printed on with a poor ink jet. There are no director cuts, gag reels, interviews with the cast. This looks like it was put together to get something out for the fans just to keep them quit. That said, since this is the only thing out there, I guess this is as good as it gets. If you really liked the series you would like having this in your collection. Also, for the price you can't pass it up, all though for the quality I wouldn't pay more.

**********UPDATED**********

Just found the new version at Starhunter - The Complete Series. I hadn't gotten it yet, but I look forward getting a higher quality version. If you are considering getting Vol 1 & 2, you may want to spend a few dollars more and get the new version.

charming and fun.......2005-09-23

I discovered Starhunter season one recently on DVD and was very intrigued by it. The show was entertaining although it's too bad the episodes are mixed up on the DVDs! Also only a few episodes of season one are available on DVD. Why not put them all out and in the right order? The series itself really hooked me. It has it's own special magic. I liked the cast and characters. There are a lot great ideas and fun to be had.

Season one prompted me to try Starhunter 2300. Nice package! All the episodes are included and in order. Wonderful image and sound. Fun episodes! Great show! Can we get a sequel? Maybe a direct to DVD "Serenity"? A follow-up that unites father and son while introducing new fans to the previous two series? How about re-releasing season one in the same type of quality DVD package as season two?

Quirky low-budget space opera similar to Firefly.......2004-12-02

This Canadian-made space opera was broadcast but largely overlooked in the US. It features several interesting comparisons to Joss Whedon's "Firefly" - which it predates - and has one genuinely endearing character, Percy, played by Tanya Allen.

In this volume, bounty hunter Dante Montana's quest to find his lost son Travis nears its climax, while the nefarious Orchard makes lots of trouble for our crew in its own quest for the mysterious Divinity Cluster.
