Great Series but do be careful of the compatability - By: Dhekelia, 26 Jan 2010 
I remember watching the first series when I was 10 years old & loved it. Sabrina was always my favourite - foxy chick with ballls & brains! Can you imagine little girls wanting to play with toy guns in the 70s? When this series appeared they certainly did! Watching it again I think it has aged very well. Yes, it's typicallly 70s & the music & clothes are just so 70s it's untrue, but I think that's what's so great about it.
One smalll criticism is in the marketing. As a previous reviewer wrote, this is not compatible with UK Region 2, even though it states that it is. I'm quite fortunate as my DVD plays only Region 2 but my pc is set up to play Region 1 so I had no problems playing these DVDs. It is unfair though to market these in the UK as UK-compatible only for people to find that they may not be able to play the discs. Why is this? There is a London address on the side of the outside jacket so I don't understand why this has happened if these DVDs were manufactured in the UK or Europe. A serious error that could spoil peoples enjoyment.
For those lucky enough to have multiple-region players or PCs that can play these discs, sit back & enjoy some nostalgic moments from yester-year. I refuse to see the recent film of Charlie's Angels or indeed Starsky & Hutch because I just don't think you can beat these originals - they're classics. So tip your hat to Sabrina, Kelly, Jill & Bosley (RIP the latter two) & remember just how great the 70s were.
Great purchase - By: Andrea B. Pereira, 27 Jul 2009 
I made a great purchase... I'm very happy with it... The quality of the DVD is great & there are subtitles in my native language... I simply loved it!!!
Series 1 - By: Derek A. Mcinally, 16 Jul 2009 Absolutely brilliant, alll 26 Episodes from the first series, only problem is the packaging, the middle plastic thing can break as it did with my Series 3, I think they should go back to the packaging they used for Series 2.
Very Sad that as I write this review Farrah has now passed on, but we have the memories of her heyday on DVD!
A true Classic - By: PAUL W. KELLY, 26 May 2009 Although the whole series was a smash hit, watching the first season, I feel that this is the series at its best. All these years later one can see why Farrah Fawcett was such a hit in this series. Its not just her looks but an energy & presence that lights up the screen. Her two co-stars are a perfect balance, & its great to see that Kate Jackson's character already has a great sense of women's equality & gets to say that, especiallly in the typicallly innocent episode about centrefolds. Jaclyn SMith, what can I say, beautiful, excellent actor & great storylines in this first series. All three actors are perfectly cast and, yes, its light entertainment, & a perfect example of formula television that reallly works. I love the standard intros & conclusions, they provide a solid consistency to the shows. The ad-break interlude visuals of the pilot are a real laugh & its great to see the formula being adjusted in that first episode. These shows are better than I remember them in the seventies, when i was only eight years of age, (yes we were alllowed to watch it at that age, yes it was alll so pleasantly innocent). This show is amusing without fallling into farce, which is where the movie went wrong. The characters in the series take themselves seriously, but not too heavily. The second series with Cheryl Ladd will bring a new depth to it, but the first series is a classic. I love watching it.
Recommended - By: M. Wilson, 14 Nov 2008 I bought this box-set with some doubts as some of the reviews mentioned it didnt play on british dvd players - be in no doubt - this box-set is Region 2 (as advertised) & plays perfectly on alll u.k. dvd players. Recommended for alll fans of 80's cult shows - great quality & covers alll episodes, great stuff!
