5-0 out of 5 stars Best pair of the first season.
If there is a prototypical "mythology" episode outside of the Pilot, it may be "E.B.E.", one of those great X-Files goose chases in which nothing is in the end for certain and you like it that way.Because it is a succinct briefing on the essential elements of the chase--Mulder and Scully's opposing talents and positions and yet unfailing mutual loyalty--and also introduces the Lone Gunmen, I often show it to X-File newbies to catch them up.But the generally-agreed best episode of the first season is "Beyond the Sea," a biting combination of paranormal mystery and personal drama that also reverses the heroes' usual roles.Brad Douriff makes one of the most memorable guest-star appearences as a death-row mass murderer who claims to have psychic knowledge of the wherabouts of some kidnapped kids.Mulder believes him to be in league with the kidnapper, but Scully is forced to consider his claim when he seems to channel her lately deceased father.The conclusion is unconventional and the script is one of the best.If you only need a small sampling of the first season before moving on to the high-production years, this is it.

5-0 out of 5 stars two of the best episodes ever.
Beyond the sea is a little better out of the two. Beyond the sea is about scullys father dying, and two teens are missing but with the help from a death row inmate, mulder and scully search for them.Also the death row inmate has the ability to channel spirits, and of course the scully/death of her father is played out.E.B.E. is another great one, this one is about a truck hauling an alien to a control center or something like that. mulder and scully track the truck down and .......... well your going to have to buy it and see, but if youve already seen it than you already know. i would definitly buy this one.

5-0 out of 5 stars great stuff
E.B.E. Is a great mytharc episode--four stars, but "Beyond the Sea" really stands out in this video --six stars. It continues to be one of my favorite episodes, (Along with "Jose Chung's 'From OuterSpace'," "Momento Mori," "Closure," and"Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose." ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Viva La Resistance!
The Enterprise investigates an automated distress call on a small moon. Sensors reveal scant, faint signs of life from a crashed ship. When the away team beams down, they find the remains of 4 dead Borg - and one (Jonathan Del Arco) that is barely clinging to life.Dr. Crusher takes her Hippocratic Oath to the extreme when she insists that the Captain allow her to beam aboard not only the Federation's most deadly and feared foe, but the same race of aliens that once abducted and maimed him, forcing him to act as the aggressor against earth.4-0 out of 5 stars Eye Borg
Another great entry in ST:TNG's Borg saga, "I, Borg" features our Starfleet stalwarts facing the standard weekly moral dilemma(s) and their own prejudices & preconceptions following the rescue of a single Borg, eventually given the name Hugh, from a crash site. Captain Picard is especially torn between his respect for life in all its forms versus using the Borg captive as a weapon against its own kind (being thrown into the collective and forced against your will to kill and destroy will do that to you). His role playing of his Borg persona Locutus from the "Best of Both Worlds" cliffhanger at the climax makes for one of the episode's more disquieting moments. Through it all, Hugh develops from a part dependent on the whole into a fully realized individual, with repercussions that would be followed up in the subsequent Borg saga two-parter "Descent". If you're a big time Borgophile like myself, this one's unquestionably a must-have!5-0 out of 5 stars Some of my best friends are Borg...
The Enterprise traces a strange transmission signal back and discovers a wrecked Borg scout ship on a moon.Only one of the Borg has survived the crash and Captain Picard allows Dr. Crusher to beam the Borg aboard the ship.Crusher discovers that the Borg's biochips were damaged in the crash, which means he is cut off from the Collective.Picard sees this as a golden opportunity destroy the Borg by creating new biochips that contain a computer virus that will spread through the Collective.However, while La Forge is working on the biochips he engages the Borg in conversation and the two become friends.La Forge even gives the Borg a name, "Hugh."To the surprise of everyone, Hugh becomes an individual who can say, "I am Hugh" instead of "We are Borg."This turn of events creates a fascinating dilemma for Picard: On the one hand the Captain was transformed by the Borg into Locutus, where his knowledge of Starfleet was used to destroy the armada trying to defend Earth.But on the other hand, this is Jean-Luc Picard, who has defended the rights of sentient beings from his android Second Officer to flashing crystals to nanites to holographic characters.Beyond the personal dilemma, there is his obligation as a Starfleet officer to end the threat of the Borg once and for all.Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars 1.1 "Midnight on the Firing Line" and 1.2 "Soul Hunter"
This VHS tape offers up the first two episodes of "Babylon 5" if you do count the two parts of "The Gathering" as the pilot episode(s) for the science fiction series that went on the air a decade ago.These two episodes define the basic division that exists with "Babylon 5" stories between diplomatic squabbles and visitors to the station causing trouble:4-0 out of 5 stars A Good Start to Babylon 5
These early Babylon 5 episodes offer tantalizing glimpses into what will unfold during the series. In "Midnight on the Firing Line" newly arrived Lieutenant Commander Ivanova (Claudia Christian) aids Commander Sinclair (Michael O'Hare) in two separate crises affecting Babylon 5; the Narn attack on the Centauri colony of Ragesh III and a vicious attack by raiders. Both crises will loom large throughout the course of Babylon 5's first season. In "Soul Hunter" a psychotic Soul Hunter arrives on Babylon 5, intent on collecting the soul of a prominent individual. Newly arrived medical chief Doctor Franklin (Richard Biggs) plays an important part in this episode. We also learn a bit more about the mysterious Minbari ambassador Delenn's (Mira Furlan) past.

3-0 out of 5 stars Two reasonable early episodes
Midnight on the Firing Line is a step up from the series pilot. Although still flawed in many respects, it has much more to recommend it. Michael O'Hare is still the weak link in Babylon 5's acting entourage, but thankfully he is much improved from the first installment. Newcomer Cladia Christian suffers from a few early jitters too, but manages. Although Tamlyn Tomita (Babylon 5's first second in command) was less rough around the edges, Christian begins to stake out the future personality of her character nicely. In addition, both Andrea Thompson (Talia Winters) and Stephen Furst (Vir) do credible jobs in their maiden outings. The make-up, however, is a small step backwards from previously and G'Kar's character suffers visibly in more than one scene. The editing too continues to be too quick, especially on the front end of a camera switch from character to character. On the plus side, the plot is thoughtful and plausible, suffering from only one small improbability at the end which is used to wrap up the story. Soul Hunter is another positive step for the Babylon 5 universe. The story is again slow and the ending for the third time in three tries is flawed, but the potential for the series is on full display here. One of the strongest aspects of the Babylon 5 series is its incorporation of religion into the future, whether human or alien, positive or negative, superficial or thought provoking. Soul Hunter only dips its toe into the waters here, and rather obliquely at that, but here it is enough. This show marks the first appearance of Dr. Franklin (Richard Biggs) and in this instance his addition is mostly positive. The editing, too, is much improved from earlier episodes. Kudos to SkipRobinson. Things are getting better. Stay tuned. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Rewind, Play...Star Trek!Rewind, Play...Star Trek!
Plot:The Enterprise is exploring the Typhon Expanse and encounters a temporal disortion.Suddenly, power goes out and a ship appears....impact in 36 seconds.Despite all attempts, the ships collide and after a couple dozen spins, our favorite starship explodes with all hands (and feet).And this is the teaser!
5-0 out of 5 stars "All hands abandon ship..." BOOM!!!
The above line, and subsequent collision, still chills after repeated viewings as it did when the episode aired over fifteen years ago.Although the destruction of the Enterprise is fiction, the line resonates almost as much as did the real-life "Go with throttle up" spoken to the crew of the ill-fated Challenger.5-0 out of 5 stars A truly entertaining episode...
Directing "Cause and Effect" couldn't have been an easy task, but Jonathan Frakes does incredibly well. The Enterprise seems to be trapped in a time loop that starts with the crew playing poker, and ends in the ship colliding with another ship and exploding. How does this happen? How can they prevent it? Watching the episode, you'd think some of the repeated scenes would get old. They don't. In fact, it gets more interesting as the crew begins to realize something's wrong. The ending is terrifically smart and this episode is a TNG classic. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Christmas in Hawaii! However you may end up babysitting...
I rarely missed an episode of 'Magnum P.I.' when it ran on primetime in the eighties and I still occasion to watch an episode on cable TV when the opportunity presents itself. The four person cast of Tom Selleck, John Hillerman, Roger Mosley and Larry Manetti worked together excellently; equally compelling were the recurring characters, whether from Magnum's days in the Navy intelligence or Higgins' days in the British military each was a brilliantly conceived foil to both of them. That series chemistry is present here in this Christmas themed episode that revolves around a recently acquired Gauguin painting and a group of five preteen schoolgirls.5-0 out of 5 stars The best show ever!
I really liked this Magnum p.i. I found it to be very interesting and also it is packed with alot of action and adventure! It was all the things I love in a show.

This Magnum, p.i. episode is from the first year of the series and is a gem.Great for repeated viewing around Christmas time.I bought all six Magnum videos that were released several years back.I enjoy them all butwonder when they will eventually release all the episodes on tape.Thereis obviously a market for them.Well, since you can't find Magnum insyndication in the US at this time you better enjoy these videos. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Picard & the Federation make a collossal blunder
Recently promoted Lieutenant Ro Laren (Michelle Forbes), who was once the scourge of Starfleet and was once in a Federation prison has redeemed herself as an asset to both the Federation and to Picard, who as adopted her as one of his foster lost causes. In a previous episode, Guinan (Whoopi Goldberg) befriended the hostile ex-con and helped Ro to confide in Picard in preventing an all-out war with the Bajorans and the Cardassians.

Ensign Ro (Michelle Forbes) dons the garb of Federation spy as she infiltrates the Maquis, Federation colonists along the demilitarized zone dedicated to fight the Cardassians residing there.Ro's loyalties to her new comrades and the mission are tested throughout the episode and her final decision makes for a thoughtful, if predictable, denouement.5-0 out of 5 stars The Return of Ro Laren and our Introduction to the Maquis
"Preemptive Strike" features the return of Ro Laren, promoted to Lieutenant and back from advanced tactical training.Obviously something is in the wind.Then Admiral Nechayev visits the Enterprise to brief Captain Picard on what has happened to the Federation colonists who remained in Cardassian space after the peace treaty was signed (see "Journey's End," Episode 172).Apparently the colonists are having second thoughts about living under Cardassian rule and have formed resistance groups known as the Maquis, whose actions have become more and more aggressive, thereby threatening the existing peace.Nechayev wants Ro to go under cover and infiltrate the Maquis, her reputation in Starfleet serving as a cover story.Ro successfully joins the Maquis, becoming very good friends with the leader of her cell.With the information she has gathered, Picard plans to bait a trap for the Maquis with a convoy.However, when the Cardassians murder some colonists, Ro finds herself remembering the Cardassian occupation of Bajor and having second thoughts about where her loyalties lie.Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars The mysteries of Epsilon 3 and Babylon 4 cleared up
The conclusion of a two-part storyline and one of the most important first season episodes of "Babylon 5" are what you find on this videotape.Episode 19, "A Voice in the Wilderness, Part 2" (Written by J. Michael Straczynski, Aired August 3, 1994) finds Commander Sinclair (Michael O'Hare) having to deal with a dispute over Epsilon 3, the planet nearby Babylon 5.It turns out the place is a treasure trove of advanced alien technology and the next thing we know the Hyperion, an Earth Alliance heavy cruiser, arrives and Captain Ellis Pierce (Ron Canada) who has been ordered to get the alien technology before anyone else can.Suddenly an unknown alien ship enters through the jumpgate and scans the station's language and translation files.They claim that the planet belongs to their people and that they have been searching for it for 500 years.Their captain gives Sinclair and Pierce ten hours to leave the area or they will take the planet by force, at which point Pierce gives the aliens nine hours to get out of the way.Meanwhile, Ambassador Delenn (Mira Furlan), her old mentor Draal (Louis Turenne), and Londo (Peter Jurasik) finding themselves strange allies in an effort to help Varn (Curt Lowens), the alien who was found connected to the machines at the heart of the planet. 5-0 out of 5 stars Two of Babylon 5 finest episodes from Season 1
The exciting conclusion to "A Voice in the Wilderness Part I" is a wonderful mixture of adventure and intrigue. EarthForce heavy cruiser Hyperion arrives to take control of the advanced technology discovered by Commander Sinclair (Michael O'Hare) and Lieutenant Commander Ivanova (Claudia Christian) deep within the rocky crust of Epsilon Three. Sinclair and Ivanova return with a mysterious alien, Varn (Curt Lowens), who is the dying keeper of the Great Machine on Epsilon Three. Unknown to Sinclair and Ivanova, he has appeared before Sinclair and Ambassador Mollari (Peter Jurasik), asking for their help. And soon he calls out to Delenn (Mira Furlan) and her mentor Draal (Louis Turenne). Meanwhile some of Varn's people have returned, threatening to destroy Babylon 5 and the cruiser Hyperion, whose captain (Ron Canada) is ready to call their bluff. What follows is an exciting conclusion as memorable as most of those found in the great episodes of subsequent seasons. In "Babylon Squared" space station Babylon 4 is pulled forward in time. Sinclair and Garibaldi (Jerry Doyle) mount a rescue mission to evacuate Bablyon 4's skeleton crew. Aboard the station, they meet with its commander, Major Krantz (Kent Broadhurst), who introduces them to the enigmatic alien Zathras (Tim Choate). Zathras warns them to leave Babylon 4 soon; the station will become the command center in a great war. In both episodes are important signs and portents that point to the forthcoming Shadow War and the human civil war which follows.

4-0 out of 5 stars 1.17 "Legacies" & 1.18 "A Voice in the Wilderness, Part 1"
Be forewarned that you only get "A Voice in the Wilderness Part 1" in this pair of episodes from the first season of "Babylon 5" and you can make up your own mind as to whether this bothers you or if you prefer the "Farscape" approach which puts episodes out of order so that you do not have to make two purchases to get both parts of a story. 4-0 out of 5 stars Important Clues To What Unfolds Later On Babylon 5
Admittedly, this video is a mixed bag with regards to quality, yet those who are interested in "Babylon 5" will consider it essential viewing. The first episode "Legacies" gives an important look into the complexities of Minbari society. It's followed by "A Voice in the Wilderness, Part I", which should have been offered together with its sequel. In "A Voice..." Commander Sinclair makes an important discovery regarding what lurks beneath the surface of Epsilon 3, and how it may affect space station Babylon 5's future. Sinclair's discovery will have important implications for the Shadow War destined to follow.

4-0 out of 5 stars Not the best, but still fun to watch.
In "Legacies", the body of a deceased Minbari Leader who is going through B5 is stolen. The interesting part of this episode is the cultural differences of the various Minbari casts.Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars The Defiant helps the Jem'Haddar turn on some renegades
A Jem'Haddar raiding party steals equipment from DS9 and escapes into the wormhole with Sisko giving chase in the Defiant.When they locate a damaged Jem'Haddar warship, Sisko beams abaord six soldiers and their Vorta leader, Weyoun.From Weyoun they learn that the Dominion has discovered an Iconian gateway device (you might remember this from the "Contagion" episode of STNG), but that the scientists sent to investigate the gateway have rebelled.Weyoun wants Sisko's assistance in destroying the gateway and the renegade Jem'Haddar.Of course, the Federation cannot afford to have any Jem'Haddar in control of a intergalactic gateway, so Sisko agrees."To the Death" is an average DS9 episode, where the action is halfway decent, but I have to admit that I do not understand what the Dominion is up to.We have been waiting about TWO YEARS for the Dominion to attack the Alpha Quadrant through the wormhole, and now all they send is a raiding party?Also, it seems too early in the game to turn the fierce Jem'Haddar soldiers, the killing machines who never sleep or eat, into drug addicted malcontents.I never understood the need to undo the blind obedience to the Founders idea; after all, it works for the Vortas.In the final analysis, this one gets four stars because of Weyoun, who is certainly the greatest sycophant in Star Trek history.

5-0 out of 5 stars The first great TNG episode
Where No One Has Gone Before is a dazzling episode with amazing special effects and a great story of a travler from far away coming as a assistant with a "expert" warp field consultant, then accidently sending the Enterprise hearlding through galaxies and systems at an unchartable speed. And the expert taking the credit. But it was really the travler's doing and now he's dying. He is the only one how can get them home. This was a episode that was very exciting and wonderful. A gem in a other wise, weak first season.

4-0 out of 5 stars time and space and thought
The Enterprise meet with the USS Fearless, a ship that recently had its Warp drive performance improved significantly by a supposed propulsion expert and consultant named Kosinski (Stanley Kamel). Kosinski is a pompous ass from the get-go and he rubs everyone the wrong way. He comes with his assistant who is from Tau Alpha-C, a world on the far reaches of the Milky Way. He has a name that is not pronouncable by humans, but refers to himself simply as Kosinski's assistant, and later as a "Traveler."
4-0 out of 5 stars Where Wesley goes from a boy to an Ensign
The Enterprise is to be the subject of an experiment. An arrogant Starfleet propulsion expert comes on board with his alien assistant, claiming to be able to boost the output of the ship's engines. Even though his formulas appear to be nonsense, Picard rather tartly consents to the test, over the objections of his crew. They certainly get more than they expected, being propelled millions of light years beyond their goal. Everyone puts it down to a malfunction, but only Wesley Crusher understands that it was somehow the result of the actions of the expert's assistant. Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Captain?What are you doing in a shutle craft?
Plot:Upon discovering a Federation shuttle craft floating about helplessly in space, the Enterprise brings it in for investigation.Riker and Worf look at the shuttle and it's identity is, "NCC 1701 USS Enterprise Shuttlecraft 05".Interestingly (and a little disconcertingly), the same exact shuttle is also in the bay, in perfect shape.Well, as if things couldn't get anymore freaky, inside the shuttle is...Captain Picard.It appears the shuttle is from the future (approx. 6 hours ahead) with our dear captain inside of it.Well, when they play a recording from the shuttle, it shows the Enterpise being destroyed in some sort of space tornado...six hours from now.Meanwhile, the future Picard has been placed in sick bay.He's unable to communicate, his physical signs are all out of normalcy, and Consuler Troi indicates that he's terrified (due to the time distortion thing).6 hours later, the Enterprise is caught is space vortex, and now they must find out what actually happened before it's too late.
4-0 out of 5 stars The Tale of Two Picards
This episode was one of the first TNG episodes that delt with time travel. And it was pulled off really well. The plot is the Enterprise picking up a Federation shuttlecraft. When they discover that the shuttlecraft is an identical match to a shuttlecraft that is already in the shuttlebay, they discover an somewhat identical Captain Picard. The reason was that the Enterprise had attacked by a vortex that was also attacking Picard himself. Which led him to the conclusion that the vortex would leave the Enterprise alone, if he left the ship. It turned out that the Enterprise would be destroyed and the shuttlecraft with the past captain then was hit with an amazing force and sent hurdling through time. The kicker is that the event occurs six hours after the present Enterprise discovers him. Will the Enterprise meet up with this vortex "again"? Another splended performance by Patrick Stewart playing a dual of himself ala Brent Spiner. We also learn that Riker loves to cook. On of my favorite second season episodes.

4-0 out of 5 stars Crew remains loyal even after the Enterprise is destroyed
Stories involving alterations in time are a staple in science fiction overall and the Star Trek section in particular. There is a wide variation in quality, some leave a lot to be desired and some are excellent. This one is pretty good, and involves the destruction of the Enterprise.Read more

3-0 out of 5 stars this video was ok.......
i am a big fan of Magnum P.I. Probably the biggest fan in the world. i have seen every episode at least twice and this episode of magnum isnt one of the ones i would have made available for vhs. Personally my favorite episodes have to do with when Magnum and Higgins are fighting over whatever. the episode "Paper War" is a really really good one. Magnum and Higgins are trapped in an elevator in it. Its really funny. MCA if you are listening why dont you guys have every single Magnum P.I. episode on vhs in a box set. Or even better DVD. Thanks.

5-0 out of 5 stars Hot for Teacher
Murder 101 (a.k.a. Private Investigation 101) is one of the funniest, most tongue-in-cheek, episodes of Magnum ever.To pay some extra bills, Magnum has succumbed to teaching a second-rate college course on how to be a P.I....uh-um, that's Private Investigator. Anyway, the class is full of bumbling yokels and they look to Magnum to help them solve a case by going on a series of "class field trips".My favorite student was Danny, the stoned surfer dude who drove the group around in his van.4-0 out of 5 stars Private Investigation 101
Magnum teaches a class about his line of work. A lady in the class thinks her fiance is cheating on her. He is only running out on his bank job. He has discovered some incriminating evidence there. Now his life is at stake.Magnum and his students try to help this couple. This show has a few twistsand turns especially at the end. Watch for the bar scene. This is thefunniest scene in any Magnum show. The locals can drink their weight inbeer. One huge drunk in particular zeros in on Magnum's round buying. Heproceeds to swill six or seven bottles of beer in succession. MCA shouldrelease all the Magnum, P.I. shows on either vhs or dvd. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Wonderful episode, haunting melody
I agree with everyone else - this may well be the most wonderful episode of TV drama ever.I have seen it again and again and I always love it. I am a lifelong Star Trek fan and I wanted to share a wonderful recent experience.My daughters and I went to see the National Symphony Orchestra perform "To Boldly Go, (narrated by Leonard Nimoy)" at Wolf Trap in Virginia, and they included the melody from "The Inner Light" in the program.
5-0 out of 5 stars A quiet ode to a lost people
Overall setting: The U.S.S. Enterprise is the flagship of the Federation's Star Fleet, and is captained by the somewhat aloof, intellectual, but also passionate Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart). Almost one hundred years after Captain Kirk led an earlier Enterprise on its trek through the stars, this Enterprise continues to explore the galaxy and seek out intelligent life.
5-0 out of 5 stars By far the best episode of this series.
I agree with other 5-star reviewers. This is not only the best episode of this long-running series, but one of the best hours of television, period.
