La FemmeNIkita = the first three seasons, August 10, 2005
This review is from: La Femme Nikita - The Complete First Three Seasons (DVD)
I had videotaped all of the programs live, but that included the commercials, and the quality of the tapes were not near as clear as the CDs. It's a great package for true La Femme Nikita fans. Hopefully the shortened "Fourth" season will be available in the future.

Any La Femme Nikita fan will love it!!, August 19, 2005
This review is from: La Femme Nikita - The Complete First Three Seasons (DVD)
I was surprised that the La Femme Nikits series was so expensive, but every penny is worth it. The deleted scenes are good as well as the gag reel's. I have no bad things to say about the DVD's.

Defines the post-9/11 era. Top-notch script. cast. and music, January 15, 2006
This review is from: La Femme Nikita - The Complete First Three Seasons (DVD)
Ahead of its time when it began in 1997, La Femme Nikita is "Mission Impossible," "Alias," and "24" wrapped up in one show that transcends political and cultural boundaries. During its run, it also broke ground for its hip selection of alternative music.
The show provides well-developed and overlapping story lines; intelligent characters with complicated and wounded souls; cutting-edge wardrobe and set design; and the realistic portrayal of a world in which conflicting Western values, not just American ones, are weighed against one another.
LFN draws attention to the moral ambiguities we face in a global war on terror. Still ahead of its time today, it asks us to weigh the consequences of actions we choose in battling terror -- consequences for our own moral standing, our liberties, our very lives.
The DVD set is worth buying for the original series alone, but it includes numerous behind-the-scenes extras and commentaries that add even more value.
