Pretty episodes from a world before 9/11 terrorism on fighting espionage in a violent world. Nikita was selected due to her combat abilities. It is fun to see how Section One operates with so many functions and characters. Nikita has to be aggressive and yet humane at the same time that she cannot take innocent lives. With six DVD in this season and so many episodes in each one of them, there should be a good number of episodes worth replaying.

I'm 39yo female and prior to Nikita, Roseanne was my fav tv show. I love La Femme Nikita because it is everything you could want in a show, and some you didn't know you wanted, all rolled into one. We're talkin action, drama, comedy, espionage, mystery, romance, all wrapped within a musical sound that is simply unique to Nikita. From episode one, Nikita draws you into it's intrigue and intensity. I purchased the dvd set because it is my alltime favorite show and I love to watch the entire series over and over again. Give Nikita a try...you will become instantly fascinated with the storylines, the fantastic cast, and you may find yourself buying season 2,3,4 and 5( well, 4 and 5 aren't out yet but I'm patiently waiting:) Anyway, hope my review helped ya and I hope you'll love Nikita (and Michael) as much as I do.Read full review
I purchased La Femme Nikita { Season One} because I've always been a big fan of the show { i was upset at it's cancellation, lol} and I'd been meaning to buy the dvds, season by season, for a couple of years, but didn't because everywhere i found that had the dvds, the price, I believed , was too high...I waited, hoping the price would come down { no reflection on the show}. when I couldn't wait any longer, i'd browse eBay, finding better pricing, then finding a price that was a steal, couldn't pass it up. The show is very entertaining. I get into each and every character { almost to the point where I'm also a member of "The Section"}. The quality of the dvds is great, plus there are the behind the scenes info, which go in depth about the show and it's making. I"ve done a fair amount of shopping on eBay...because I've usually found what I've wanted at a better price, at store quality....this is dvd set is another example.Read full review
What I love about this show is that it is totally over the top but in a non-gendered way: it's not really a chick show and it's not hyper-masculine. Also, it's politically potent today. With everything that is going on in the world with Iraq and international terrorism, the show is probably more accurate in terms of spies and counter-terrorist plots than it was when the show first came out. Who heard of Hezbollah in 1996? Now it's commonplace. Also, the "technology" still stands up- the gel screens and gadgetry haven't changed too much from what's on TV today. Anyways, this show is pure escapism, will fulfill any chicks desire for sexual tension (over 5 seasons!), and is other-worldy. Though it was created for American television, all of the characters have accents, the fashion is more European than Hollywood, and the music is non-mainstream. If you enjoy good action and a constructed world all it's own, this show will make you happy.Read full review
Peta Wilson is excellent in her role as Nikita. That is why it lasted around 6-7 seasons. Michael is pure cold blooded badass. Add to that all the intrigue and backstabbing at Division...and, well, just buy and see for yourself. I have purchased all the seasons over the years.
