Product Information
Legendary sci-fi producer Gerry Anderson--the mastermind behind such cult favorites as THUNDERBIRDS and SPACE: 1999--created his first live-action television series with this rarely seen science-fiction gem. Set in a then-futuristic 1980, UFO follows the adventures of S.H.A.D.O., a secret agency that must fight the evil aliens who infiltrate Earth and harvest the organs of humans. This megaset includes all 26 episodes of the British series, whose compelling storylines, strong cast, and innovative special effects bear the mark of Anderson's unique sci-fi sensibility.Product Identifiers

Retro Sci-Fi
Fun sci-fi series that weaves in a dose of period (late 60's/early 70's) pop culture while trying to imagine what the future (1980) might look like. The DVD's are satisfactory - and the set includes some additional content on each such as outtakes, photos and audio clips. I think if you were a kid at the time this series was originally released, you'd probably be the most likely to really enjoy the DVD set. I did enjoy watching all the episodes -- it was fun to see certain aspects of the 60'/70's woven into the series while still trying to reflect a time that was supposed to be a decade forward. All good --Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

The future is now!
The great thing about the series UFO is that it predicts the future. With numerous flaws, omissions, errors, and mistakes, the 1964 production shows us a time after the pantomime "Terrorist" & "Rouge Nation" threats have become old and worn out. A new and original "boogie-man" is needed to keep society in fear, and so, Earth is under threat from outer space! Nobody knows who they are or where they came from! (how convenient). The story of male models in spiffy rockets, and purple wigged babes on the moon is righteous fun! - five-stars.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Futuristic Blast From The Past!
Very entertaining TV series. I remember watching a few episodes as a child but couldn't really appreciate it at the time. As a little boy, I wanted to see more of the aliens, their home world and maybe a few monsters thrown in for kicks. Indeed, one might think that the show was intended for children. This might be true in terms of the futuristic looking machines and spaceships, many of which were later marketed as toys. In reality, however, several episodes are interestingly profound, and some scenes even a bit too graphic for younger eyes. I must say that I have acquired a new appreciation for Gerry Anderson's UFO. I'm just sorry that only 26 episodes were made and the series abruptly ended!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Nostalgic TV Show
UFO was a great series in the late 1960s. While the special effects are somewhat cheesy compared to today, the series was great entertainment. This DVD set was a great value, but took awhile to arrive. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for those ole time TV shows.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

A great look at the future being envisioned in the 1960's
This is an amazingly entertaining series. Some of the plots are a bit thin and there are inconsistencies but if you want a fun ride with amazing model-based special effects this show can really entertain you. When you look at what these artists accomplished with 1960's technology, you will see the passion behind the production. That's what sells it for me.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

The Complete UFO Megaset on 8 DVD's.
It's fun, sexy and campy with the special effects you have come to love from Gerry Anderson. Space 1999 would be my first choice but if you can find this on the cheap definetly buy it.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

UFO was a good TV show
Very good British Sci Fi show. Grew up watching Fireball XL-5 and Stingray (Supermarionation shows).....Then they did this Live action show. Sadly, they went on to do Space;1999 which was not very good.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
