I like episodic television; especially of the anthology sort (Twilight Zone, Tales from the Crypt, etc.)

The New Outer Limits has done a good job of having these sets that focus on a certain theme (mutation, the after-life, aliens). I for one like this format, because you can pick and choose a certain theme, and yet get varied episodes within that genre. In other words, you good a good variety of stories.

There are several theme dvd sets to choose from, something for everyone with different tastes.

This particular set, "Mutation & Transformation" was entertaining, also providing a moral at the end of each episode about the moral and ethical implications of bio-engineering for example.

** Thought provoking--- highly recommended **

A compilation of series shows on the theme of Mutation and Transformation. If you liked the show you'll like having the DVD's.

I was kinda dissapointe there werent more episode. the one that were on
the disc's were very good.
