Anyone who has seen an episode already knows this is a gripping show about travelers and ordinary people that either suckered into or forced into a very bad situation. The reviews I find the most helpful list the episodes so here they are:

Disc 1:
Chechnya
Uganda
Korea

Disc 2:
Bangladesh
Philippines
Kuwait

Disc 3:
India
Pakistan
Lima, Peru

Disc 4:
Malaysia
Taiwan
Ecuador

It's unfortunate that not all of the episodes are in this collection. I hope they add them to a different collection soon.

Its hard to watch a single episode and not see the attention to detail the producers took to recapture the events that took place, 4 stars because not all the episodes are included

I watch this series on Nat Geo alot and of the 12 episodes here, these are in my opinion, the best of the best. Some episodes I have never seen before. Wish there were more in the set.

Many are not "locked up" stories, but a monotonous series of tourists being kidnapped and drug through a forest. 3 stories were identical and I thought I had either mistakenly replayed a disk, or their was an error in its manufacturing. I cannot recommend buying this product.

Although it doesn't say it on the Amazon listing or on the actual product, this set is basically all of the episodes of Season 2. Currently, Seasons 1, 3 and 5 are not available. Season 4 is available on Amazon on DVD-R only. This is the only DVD set you can buy currently. Locked Up Abroad is a great show and this set is a must-have for any fan!

Love, Love, Love this DVD! I am so addicted to this program. Great true stories that illustrate human courage, regret, redemption, and the will to live.

I'm too busy to keep up w/my dvr and often miss these when they're on nat geo, but if you're a fan of locked up abroad order these today! It's a great show, although I could do without the poor people who were just in the wrong place at the wrong time stories-those are very sad. I prefer the stories about people making bad decisions & getting caught up in a foreign country.
