The Universe: The Complete Season Three

Overall the series is interesting, but it lacks in actual video and images. There is a huge supply out there, yet they rely on animation. I understand many of the things discussed are too distant, or simply haven't been caught on film, but still. Now to the theory. Almost everything discussed is theory, yet they too often treat it as fact. The episode on alternate universes is a joke. Sure, there are people that believe it, but I can't believe the way it was presented. Does anyone seriously believe that there is a doppelganger for each one of us in some other parallel universe? To say that George W. Bush may be the commissioner of baseball in another universe is absurd. Finally, they are extremely-extremely-extremely lazy in the over-use of the same animation and images that show up in many of the episodes. Despite these annoyances, there seem to be just enough nuggets of interesting things that make it worth a watch, just not sure it will get a repeat viewing.

This is the first time I have ever felt compelled to write a pubic review for anything because of how strongly I felt about the series. After reading the other reviews to this series I felt that I had no choice but to write a review.

For the people who said they liked or loved it, that is great! But why? Why just write saying it was woth seeing?

In my opinion this should be shown in every school in the world and people who are already grown, somehow organize a way for them to be mandated to watch the series!

Now, for the people who didn't like Season 3. Too much Science Fiction? That just up sets me!! What was Science fiction at the dawn of the last centry in many ways became a reality. I hope you know where I paraphrased that quote from too! My Grandmother is 85 years old, she still thinks it is so amazing that you can fly across the earth in a matter of hrs and that we somehow got to the moon a few years ago.

I will agree with the comment about sex in space not being on of their best episodes, frankly I was really shocked to see that in the collection since I only watch the episodes on DVD and not when they are on TV.

Yeah there were some repeat visual affects, but if anything, it works as a great learning tool driving home the actual remember aspect and consistency of the material.

I would say to enhance Season 3, you should have watched the first 2 Seasons and have a fundamental understanding of our physical world, but idealistically everyone should watch this Season and the entire series. We need to believe in this life and the universe we currently live in and not about which god to worship or who to kill becuase people don't believe in their god....Believe in the here and now and what may come of it.

I hope you buy this Season and enjoy it as much as I did and will in the future... and yes I will mandate people closest to me in my life watch this, but many of people who I associate with have already seen the series and they are always a great conversational piece.

This documentary series is without a doubt one of the better ones out there. It`s interesting, entertaining, and factual (in a day
and age where so many "supposed documentaries" contain so few facts) what more could you ask of a documentary?
The 3rd season may be a bit weaker than the first two were, but that`s understandable as they have to dig harder for subject
matter without covering the same ground they have already been over in the past.
As long as they can keep it interesting, entertaining, and above all, factual, I`ll keep watching.

Every episode makes you fall deeply into its lesson.
Hard not to fall in love with it.
