A Gift From the Gods!

"It almost seems too good to be true, but this package contains four discs crammed full of Hercules and Xena. Each selection features a variety of stories from the quest to liberate the city of Troy to the memorable transformation of Xena from a warlord to a warrior princess fighting for justice. None of them will disappoint. Kevin Sorbo and Lucy Lawless shine as the stars and display both wit and charisma. If there is one gripe to be had about this collection, it is the lack of the other three original Hercules movies. This compilation only features two. Despite the setback, there is no shortage of action and humor that have carried the series for more than five years now. A true fan treat."

"This pack provides a real sampling of the Hercules series, along with Xena and Young Hercules. If anyone has not seen these, this pack could very well get them hooked! The animated movie was entertaining as well, but I prefer the real thing. The only disappointment is the lack of chapter stops on the Hercules's Amazon Women and Lost Kingdom DVD, and the Xena Trilogy DVD. Using the fast forward is inconvenient, but does not detract from the stories!"
This is so not cool

"What a gyp! It mentions having "Young Hercules", and in the movies summary it says that it stars Ryan Gosling who played Young Hercules in the television show, which is why for a minute I thought they'd *finally* put "Young Hercules" the tv series on DVD. But the series was not 93 min long in total (as mentioned in DVD features), and the picture leads me to conclude that the "Young Hercules" in this pack is the movie, not the television show, and that was starring Ian Bohen, NOT Ryan Gosling.
Other than that typo that got my hopes up before dashing them against the rocks, I guess it's a pretty good pack to get, unless you're planning to get the first season of "Hercules:TLJ" on DVD, 'cause the movies are on there too, and then just getting "Young Hercules" by itself."

"Absolute greatness.
Sure to be enjoyed by any Hercules/Xena fan.
These DVD's are great to see how both series came to be. No commercials and includes the extended/deleted scenes not shown on the TV. I highly recommened this set be added to every fans collection. You will not be disappointed."
