It's hard to give this long awaited DVD more than 3 stars. Thousands of fans anticipated the release of the 3rd season, the height of the entire series. This is the season when it became more than a teenage drama, a new and more mature story line began developing. Jude began writing stronger songs and discovered love triangle with the boy next door and the producer.

This season is BEAUTIFUL. The release of the DVD was rushes though. There's nothing but 13 episodes on a dual disk. The disk lacks artwork. The DVD artwork is barely even good. The back tries to mimic S1 and S2, but fails.

If Echo Bridge has any hopes of making more money, then they will release a bonus DVD with all the features this DVD lacked.

The rating I give this set is for the episodes ONLY.

After waiting so long for this season to come out on DVD I was excited to see it available to buy especially at the decent price compared to the two seasons before. Once I got the set though I could understand the pricing.

The only thing on the DVD is the thirteen episodes. There is no on-the-sets, no minis, not even a special feature to view the performances on the own without watching the full episodes.

All in all if you want to buy it so you can watch the episodes on your TV and not your computer go ahead. If you want special features and don't mind watching it on your home computer or laptop, try iTunes their download of season three has all the on-the-sets as shown on the N.

Like The Simpsons season 20, The long awaited release of Instant Star season 3 seems rushed.

Like The Simpsons season 20, There are No Extras. No Bloopers, no Deleted Scenes, No Minis that were on The-n (Now TeenNick), Nothing.


For those wondering, The packaging is different than Seasons 1 and 2. It's in a standard DVD Keep Case and it's on 1 Double sided Disc

JULY 23, 2010 EDIT - Echo Bridge Entertainment has informed me that Rather than giving us a re-issue of season 3, Season 3's missing bonus features will be placed The Season 4 DVD

And While I'm glad they're making it so I don't have to buy season 3 again, Still, I don't get why they just didn't bother putting season 3's bonus features on here in the first place. Which is why this review remains 1 star off

I am so excited to now have season 3 of Instant Star on DVD. The only downfalls are that it is a double sided disc(more potential for scratches at least that's how I see it). Half the episodes on one side and half on the other. And I had to order it on the internet because no where had it. The other downside is there are no special features. It is worth it however because I now can just pop in the DVD and watch season 3 whenever I want, although like a cassette tape I'll have to flip it to the other side lolz.

I bought this dvd because i absolutely love the show! i wasn't very disappointed with how the dvd turned out, because i had read reviews where people complained about the dvd not containing extra's!

The one thing i didn't like was the lack of creativity displayed on the disc menu. there is nothing there that would even remotely make you think it's an instant star dvd, nothing like the first season.

the main reason i wanted to write this review is because this: I also ordered season 4 and for those wondering where the season 3 extra's went, they are on a disc along with the season 4 extra's that comes with the season 4 dvd.

just buy this dvd, cus you know as wel as i do that you love this show!!!!

Instant Star fans will love season 3. It is packed with action and hard to stop watching. You will always want more.

i loved this show. so awesome, till i realized it was Canadian. lol. not that i liked it less. i just noticed the accent more. lol

The first two seasons came in nice boxed sets with bonus features. This season, however did not. It came on one dual sided DVD. Nothing else. Its just the show. The bonus features for this season are on the season 4 special features disk, which I wouldn't have known. Luckily I did order season 4 at the same time. This is my favorite season out of the whole show and I can't play the dual sided disks on my DVD player. Only my laptop. Its kind of a let down

Having season 3 on DVD is great! The only things I dislike is that it is all on one disc and the extras are on the Season 4 DVDs Extras

Condition was as they said it was going to be and I LOVE THIS SHOW!!!
