One of TV's more interesting tough-girl action shows, Dark Angel is a distinctive blend of the personal, the adventurous, and the politically aware. Cocreators James Cameron and Charles Eglee present a complex scenario of biological super-science and social collapse in which their gene-manipulated heroine and hacker-journalist hero can genuinely make a difference. In this first season they also provide an adversary who is a lot more than just a conventional villain.
Jessica Alba is impressive as Max, bred and trained as a super-soldier but reclaiming her individual humanity; Michael Weatherly is scruffily attractive as Eyes Only, who sits semi-paralyzed in his eyrie above Seattle uncovering crime, corruption, and other skullduggeries and assigning deadly errands to the woman he hopelessly loves. Jon Savage has real authority as Lydeker, a man who has stretched his conscience to the breaking point, but is not personally corrupt. Some of the best episodes--"Prodigy," for example--are ones in which Lydeker and Max are forced into temporary alliance. Early on, the relationship between Max and the other workers at Jam Pony--the courier firm that provides her with a cover identity--is a little forced, but later on the two parts of Max's life are more successfully integrated: "Shorties in Love," for example, is a genuinely touching tale about Diamond, the doomed criminal ex-lover of Max's lesbian roommate. Dark Angel was never a perfect show, but at its occasional best it manages to be simultaneously funny and dramatic. --Roz Kaveney

I liked it but that doesnt change the bad acting, awful supporting characters, horrible lines, ect. This show could have been a lot better. While there are a load of things about it i didnt like the one thing that REALLY annoyed me was the characters lines. The characters sound like a bunch of kids pretending they are play fighting. The only one who really sounds (and acts) down to earth is michael weatherly's character. The whole girl power thing really sucked. I like strong female characters but ... Read More

So sad that there wasn't a third season. They got picked for a another season for like a day but then they dropped them. Dumbest move the network made.

This show was made before 9-11 about a post 9-11 world. It deals with USA in a depression after terrorist sent up a nucular air pulse that killed all the computers and sent the world back to the dark ages. With crime running out of control our hero Max (the lovely Jessica Alba) is a geniticly enhanced super soilder who escaped from her test lab prison. I still can not forgive Foxfor cancelling this show. BAD FOX! BAD FOX!

I don't know if you like Jessica Alba; the star. I don't. But I loved her riveting and imaginative sitcom! I never missed an episode in a time when there wasn't "On Demand" or a sitcom DVD mainstream. You're lucky. This is very cheap for a great season if you appreciate a dark story, a Buffy-like, gun hating heroine with only a few trusted friends and a bloody past. Although I do not recommend straying from Season One, there is a controversial and interesting plot throughout.

Amazon has the complete first season DVDs listed twice, once for $28 and once for $36, and the only difference between the two items seems to be the picture on the front. The second season is also listed twice, for $28 or $40.
However, the complete series is listed for $45. I just received my order, and it really does contain each set of season disks. I recommend getting "Dark Angel - The Complete Series" unless, for whatever reason, you're interested in only one season.
