This review is from: Hercules The Legendary Journeys - Season 3 (DVD)

A great season of Hercules. I agree with another reviewer that the Golden Hind episodes are well worth watching.

I looked around to see what I could find out about this DVD set. Anchor Bay Entertainment does a nice job on their website of describing their products. Here is what they had to say. According to their website, the length is 1080 Mins. There was no mention of how many discs are included, but it claims "hours" of special bonus features.

According to Anchor Bay's website, the special features include:
* Audio and Video Commentary From Kevin Sorbo & Michael Hurst
* Hercules Chronicles and Mythology
* Direct Access Scenes
* Series Trivia
* Behind-the-Scenes Interviews with Cast & Crew
* Photo Gallery
* Actor and Director Bios
* Hercules Screen Saver

5.0 out of 5 stars Season 3, the 2nd best season, January 9, 2004

This review is from: Hercules The Legendary Journeys - Season 3 (DVD)

Once again, Hercules goes out on its third season romp. This is the season when it realized its full potential, and ranks second only to season 5. The shows put out in the third season range from comedy to romance to intense drama. The Golden Hind trilogy included in this season is worth the price of admission alone.

More new characters appear, including the first of many fine performances by Kevin Smith as Ares; Karl Urban starts his role as Cupid; Sam Jenkins-Sorbo appears as Hercules' second lost love, Serena; and Xena (Lucy Lawless), Gabrielle (Renee O'Connor), and Joxer (Ted Raimi) cross-over from "Xena: Warrior Princess" for the very first time.

Take hold of this set, as it will take until the fifth season for the show to regain the glory it gained this season.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best seasons of the show., April 7, 2004

This review is from: Hercules The Legendary Journeys - Season 3 (DVD)

I love this show. Finally after almost a two month wait it's here. Hercules Season 3 was a great year for the show. Some of the most popular episodes they made were on it.

Kevin Sorbo aka Hercules favortie episode is included in this season. "Mercenary" is that episode. It's a great episoe where Hercules and a mercenary must defend themselves from Tremor like Worms and a bunch of pirates. It's a great episode and I can see why it's Kevins favorite.

There are two episodes with the goddess of love Aprhodite. "Love Takes a Holiday" and "Reign of Terror" both have her in it played by the lovely Alexandra Tydings. She is so hot in all her episodes. All her episodes are real good and are full of laughs. Sam Rami(Ex Pro) always made sure all the episodes with Aphrodite were great.

"Love Takes a Holiday" is great in a way in that Kevin Sorbo isn't in it. Iolaus(Michael Hurst) stars as the lone hero in this one. He teams up with Aprhrodite to save a town from Aphestus the god of fire.

There are a ton of good episodes in this season. The christmas tribute one is here in "A Star to Guide Them." Hercules fights a mystic mummy in "Mummy Dearest." Hercules also gets sent back to 18 century France in "Les Contemptibles." He finds a new wife, battles his brother Ares and does much more in this legendary season.

Season 3 is awesome. It's better than 2 and I'd say equal to 1. The extras on this one are the best yet, and the DVDs just keep getting better. Fans of the show won't want to miss out on this one.
