Imaginative entertainment

"This is really good entertainment; well-written storylines, decent acting, and overall quite imaginative and very well done. The first story, "I, Robot" derives from a famous Isaac Asimov story in which a robot is put on trial for allegedly murdering a human being. This is an excellent episode. My other two favorites are "The Glitch" and "The Camp." Both will rock even the most jaded viewers. "The Glitch" in particular raises some interesting moral questions about what it means to be human, and humane.
Overall, like most Outer Limits collections, this is entertainment aimed at the viewer's intellect, unlike most TV entertainment. The thoughtful viewer will enjoy this collection very much."
VERY THOUGHT PROVOKING AND ENTERTAINING

"If you liked the TV show you'll enjoy the DVD's. Double sided DVD's. Handy to have the episodes with the same theme on one DVD."
