Editorial Reviews

Once upon a time is now and forever: Beauty and the Beast: The Third Season of the Emmy Award-winning, fan favorite show is more captivating than ever in this 3-disc collectible set. This unique fantasy-crime drama series features the adventures and romance between Vincent, a mythic, noble man-beast and Catherine, a savvy assistant DA in New York. These two share a strong, mystical bond that enables Vincent while in his underground lair to sense whenever Catherine is in danger in the World Above. In the powerful final season, Catherine, pregnant with Vincent¹s child, becomes a victim to a murderous drug-lord who steals her baby from her after she gives birth. Drawing strength from the everlasting love and unbreakable bond he and Catherine share, Vincent relentlessly pursues her killer, determined to bring him to justice and to rescue their child.

3.0 out of 5 stars What It Is Not, and What It Should Be October 2, 2008
Format:DVD
As a huge fan of the show, I am truly disappointed. I gave my DVD sets to another fan in anticipation of the full series set, but it just wasn't worth it.

The interactive trivia feature is fun for about ten minutes. The questions were ultimately pretty easy and could have been written by some disinterested intern who just skimmed over episodes. It was kind of bumpy and not very engaging.

The original love letters are nothing new, but I too was shocked when some strange man started reading the new love letters. I mean, what were they thinking? No fan of the show wants to hear some random guy reading Vincent's words. I immediately pressed Stop and have no interest in checking out the rest.

The experience reached an all-new low when I started reading the love letters and noticed two typos in one letter. I am an editor and look for these things, but I am pretty sure any person with a brain knows that solace is spelled with an "a" and not solice, like they spelled it. And "breath" instead of "breathe"? Come on! Again, who put this together?

It's obvious that Ron and Linda (or anybody close to the show) had nothing to do with this box set, which is disappointing. No love was put into this at all - the abominable picture of Vincent on the cover symbolizes all that is wrong with this box set. When I think of the features on other DVD sets, I feel ripped off and let down. Why can't we see deleted scenes, interviews, and other cool bonus features?

The fans of this show are really connected to it - the mailing lists, conferences, fan fiction, etc. are still going strong twenty-one years later and this box set is just a slap in the face. If you don't have all the seasons, get this because it's cheaper than buying them separately. But if you already have the seasons, don't bother with this. It will only disappoint you.

3.0 out of 5 stars Don't Bother September 30, 2008
Format:DVD
If you've already purchased the show's three seasons separately, don't bother with the boxed set, as it's a complete waste of money.

In addition to the strangely altered image of Vincent on the box, the "bonus" disc is insulting to long-time fans. "Newly Reconstructed Love Letters" is read by God-knows-who ... certainly not Ron Perlman. Ridiculous. If you bought the VHS tapes way back when, you already have the original love letters, which also appear on the bonus disc.

Besides the love letters, the only other two features are episodic promos for some first season episodes - and "Vincent's Quest" - an interactive trivia game. No interviews, no deleted scenes, no behind-the-scenes footage ... nothing to warrant spending $70 if you've already purchased all three seasons individually.

What a disappointment.

4.0 out of 5 stars Beauty and the Beast Complete Series Set April 3, 2009
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
All episodes are here. Extras very disappointing. No deleted scenes, bloopers, behind the scene footage, etc. Only a few stilted interviews with Ron Perlman and Linda Hamilton.

Beauty & Beast complete CD series
Hi bought the complete series....glad I didn't buy them season by season. The bonus disc was not so good. Love the series...very imaginative, and lovely especially the underground city. I'd suggest cleaning the discs and putting them in a better DVD case.

Price Increase
You should have ordered it when you thought about it. Amazon's prices are not written in stone, they are subject to change without notice. The fine print of the site tells us that right from the beginning.

New Special Features on All Season Release???
Let's hope so! From what I understand, this is a "collectible" set, so something to differentiate it from the previously released seasons seems a reasonable expectation.

More info on Beauty and the Beast Boxed set
I agree with you, I really want to see the extras, but I don't know if I want to pay 60 bucks for something I already have =(
But if people tell me the extras are awesome, darn it I just might consider it!
