It took me two tries to find a set that works well. The series is preserved on DVD but it has not been remastered and the quality is really no better than broadcast. Get it if you want to own the series but don't expect fireworks.

When the show first aired I watched every episode. It gets you hooked early on with a complex story and compelling characters. I was very disappointed when the show wasn't continued after the first season but like most of the shows I like it didn't hit a cord with the mainstream. It's a very good sci-fi show which shows how people are trying to survive on a new world on which they are the alien life and trying to adapt to a completely new way of life. The way they created the native inhabitants was also very unique and I applaud the creators creativity. They basically thought about what humanity may have been if instead of turning to artifice they instead turned to organic technology and bonding with the planet. I bought it because they don't show it on tv anymore and you can't find it anywhere on hulu or similar sites for watching older tv shows. I wanted to watch it whenever I wanted to because it's one of my favorite shows.Read full review
I rented this series. Some of the show were great but many were just silly. People were not use to dealing with live animals other than cats. Also there were suppose to be the first human on the planet. It becomes obivous that is not true. The natives didn't talk but would appear in dreams. The natives live in harmony with the land. They will probably have problems with a large number of humans arriving and taking over the planet. Most of the colonists have only lived in space colonies since most of Earth has been destroyed by the human race. I missed this show when it was first on television. I think they could have improved it in the second season. There definitely worst shows on the air waves.
Earth 2 is about a group of people escaping the government of earth to save the lives of a number of children with a disease.For some reason the government trys several attempts to sabotage the mission & kill the group,but they escape and travel about 24 years to an earth like planet(hence the name earth 2)where the "scout team" is to build a colony for the rest of the group to live when they arrive.Sabotage causes everyone to use escape pods and the whole group gets seperated as well as the supplies & equipment.they meet strange creatures and have a long and uneasy road to travel before the rest arrive.The story it self isn't original..."traveling to find another earth",but they have characters that you like....and hate.The biggest problem with the show i have is in the 1st episode the special fx are good...but then nothing.The entire time on the planet they just walk every where and i think it was just a cheap way to put together a show.i rated the show as average though i do like it,it's just a second tier sci-fi show.If you like sci-fi you might like this...if you don't like sci-fi then you shouldn't bother.Read full review
