VR.5

This show had the dark side and very cool visual possibilities wide open to it and made a great start at exploring both in its one and only season. I was very curious to see if it, unlike Alias and the X-Files (both of which I like nevertheless), could credibly sustain the intrigue surrounding the conspiracy-like back-plot of her father, the "organization" and just who she was working for, but then, of course, it got cancelled. In many ways this show staked out territory that Buffy was eventually able to mine more deeply (three cheers for Anthony Stewart Head, another link between the two shows) and, handled right and backed hard by a caring network, it could have developed into something like.

A few episodes of this show were displayed in the VERY late section of Egyptian Channel 2 TV (3:00 AM). And I've been looking for it everywhere since then! I find these series much better than many other popular science fiction ones. They had a special 'atmosphere' to them that cannot be found in mainstream science fiction series. This and the 80's 'Twilight Zone' are my most favourite. Too bad it was discontinued

The show was JUST getting started, and I was hooked. The next thing I knew, it was OFF THE AIR!!! I liked it so much I found the soundtrack to the series. I found the concept to be fascinating and absolutely plausible. SHAME on the networks that kill so many great shows before their time. The heroine was just about to find the answers to many of her questions when it was taken off the air. I would love to find out what happened and will do so if I can locate the DVD of the show. Hopefully, it will have additional episodes that will even out what I have already seen. This has happened to Buffy, Angel, Wonderfalls, Dead Like Me, Witchblade, just to mention a few!

VR5 is without doubt the best, most entertaining and thought provoking and compelling sci fi TV series i have ever seen, or can ever envisage being made.

Despite being shown in the uk after midnight, it is the one show that could enforce insomnia.

I regret that i only happened upon the series by luck, as it seems to have evaded all possible sources of reporting. i hope no other series as Outstanding as VR5 have suffered its fate. inexplicably anonymous.

If this is ever repeated or you cna find a record, watch it buy it, treasure it.

I was into the show, even being young at the time, and had to search hard to remember the title and where I could rewatch. I wish they would reboot or at least reshow this series. Definitely deserved more than 1 season
