Best. Spaceship. Ever.
Farscape: The Complete Series Blu-ray
The finest space opera of the past two decades without the words "Battlestar" or "Galactica" in its title, Farscape was a real humdinger of a show, taking creative chances most series wouldn't dare attempt and doing it all with a smile on its face and a spring in its step. And in Ben "John Crichton" Browder and Claudia "Aeryn Sun" Black, it also had the most romantic (and sexiest) central romance of any ongoing serial in recent memory. Those two already good-looking individuals are even more attractive (if that's possible) in high-def and the Blu-ray format also allows you to appreciate the show's terrific use of puppetry (courtesy of The Jim Henson Company) all the more. Farscape may be gone from the airwaves, but not from the hearts of its devoted fanbase.
Extras: An all-new retrospective documentary with fresh interviews from Browder and Black, as well as series mastermind Rockne S. O'Bannon, plus all the features that were available on the previous "Complete Series" edition, from commentary tracks to behind-the-scenes featurettes.
Awkward: Season One
We weren't the biggest fans of this MTV high-school series when it premiered over the summer. But as the series ran its course, a strange thing happened: it turned into a funnier, smarter and all-around better show. Now we can't wait for Season 2 and the further misadventures of our favorite loveable loser, Jenna.
Extras: Webisodes, a behind-the-scenes look at the high-school sets and character introductions.
Being Human: The Complete First Season
The rare American remake of a British series that doesn't completely tarnish the original, SyFy's version of Being Human benefits from a mostly likable cast and story arcs that are based on its predecessor, but spin off in their own ways. Plus, it's hard to go too terribly wrong when your central premise involves a vampire, a werewolf and a ghost living together under one roof. That's sci-fi gold right there.
Extras: A making-of featurette, interviews with the cast and crew and a recording of the show's 2011 Comic-Con panel.
Also on DVD:
Robert Wagner scored his first big TV gig on It Takes a Thief: The Complete Series, playing the titular thief, Alexander Mundy, who agrees to lend his criminal talents to the government after they offer to spring him from prison. Whitechapel: The Ripper Returns finds present-day Scotland Yard dealing with a rash of killings that resemble the Ripper murders of old. And finally, the well-reviewed History Channel series WWII in HD gets a special collector's edition release just in time for the holiday gift season.

A vampire, werewolf, and a ghost are "sci-fi gold"? Exactly which of the fictional sciences are we talking about?
I have to get this...and I don't even have a Blu-Ray! I love this show.
I'll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)
The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod's. It works well, but isn't as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that's not an issue, but if you're planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod's larger screen and better browser may be important.

Thanks for the nice post. I have saved it to go through another time. Thanks a lot then keep it up. Get Free Edu Backlinks
This is the right blog for anyone who wants to find out about this topic. You realize so much its almost hard to argue with you (not that I actually would want…HaHa). You definitely put a new spin on a topic thats been written about for years. Great stuff, just great!
This internet site is my aspiration, very outstanding design and Perfect articles.
Another new inclusion, I truly couldn't have explained that much better myself.
The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it'll do even better in those areas, but for now it's a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod's strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.
Hands down, Apple's app store wins by a mile. It's a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I'm not sure I'd want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.
The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod's. It works well, but isn't as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that's not an issue, but if you're planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod's larger screen and better browser may be important.
Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass' favor.
Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It's very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.

I don't think that there exists any one single formulation for being the very best at everything but there certainly must be something to the fact that there are so many of us out there who appear to be doing so quite a bit better than others. On the other hand, I recently came across a formulation that makes me think that some people really do have an unfair advantage. Take a glance at the video. http://tinyurl.com/7zqjaeo
