Product Description

From Amazon.com

Felicity: Junior Year Collection is an improvement over year 2--perhaps inevitably, as the characters are lurching toward adulthood more rapidly and definitively. For the most part, Felicity (Keri Russell) and the gang still face the same challenges--commitment, academic momentum, conflicts over values, pressure from parents--but the stakes are higher because everyone has outgrown adolescent defenses and revealed more of themselves to lovers and friends. The third season begins with lots of smiles and hopes as Felicity, boyfriend Ben (Scott Speedman), would-be filmmaker Sean (Greg Grunberg), kinky Wiccan Meghan (Amanda Foreman), and the rest return from a summer break to get reacquainted. Felicity, expected to move in with pals Julie (Amy Jo Johnson) and Elena (Tangi Miller), impulsively decides to move into an apartment with Ben instead--without telling Ben. The funky hovel becomes a source of conflict (even more after Ben lets a beautiful neighbor take a bath in his and Felicity's living-room tub) that exacerbates the couple's ambivalence about one another.

But a lot of things do that, including a visit from Felicity's mom (Eve Gordon) that finds the latter lobbying against Ben (who hasn't chosen a career and gets into a couple of fights this season) and for Noel (Scott Foley, whose character seems destined for success and who remains, secretly, in love with Felicity). Meanwhile, Sean and Meghan deal with the former's possible testicular cancer, Elena grapples with her virgin boyfriend's insistence on no pre-marital sex, Julie disappears while depressed over her relationship with her father, and newcomer Molly (Sarah-Jane Potts) tries to break off a relationship with a gun-toting drug addict (Robert Patrick Benedict). Typically, season 3 has frequent, jaw-dropping dramatic highlights, including a shooting that results in a profound experience for nearly everyone, an episode in which Felicity wakes up naked in a fraternity house, and another in which she is the recipient of an awkward pass by Ben's alcoholic father (John Ritter). Life is never dull in this series executive-produced by Ron Howard and Brian Grazer, and the subject of growing up, when treated with as much insight as Felicity offers, is always interesting. Among the special features is a great parody of the series from Mad TV. --Tom Keogh

Description

The education continues during Felicity's junior year. Felicity, played by Golden Globe winner* Keri Russell, returns to the University of New York for a new course in self-discovery. Her big decision to move in with Ben shapes the direction of the school year, but it's just one of the many exhilarating challenges in a spectacular season of passion, heartache and excitement in the city.

This review is from: Felicity:S3 (DVD)
I can't wait for this DVD to come out!! I am still in shock that they ever took it off the air. It was the only show I ever made sure to watch each week. The WB screwed up when they let go of this one. It's the only show that was truly a work of art. Plus it was so real to life and you could totally see where they were coming from. Plus the triangle of Noel, Ben and Felicity was great. Incredible actors and incredible script. Too bad they let it go, they really had something. Good thing we can get it on DVD atleast. I wish they would sale 3 and 4 at the same time instead of making us wait. Anyway AWESOME show and can't wait to buy it. If you've never seen it, buy it you wont regret it!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Glad to have it, but a little light on special features, Sep 23 2004
This review is from: Felicity:S3 (DVD)
It's been a long wait for the DVD release of Felicity's Junior year, the third year in a series which was always thoughtful, intimate and well-acted.

This is the year, though, which has the weakest moments of the drama's four year run. There's Ben's predictable dalliance with socialiate Avery, Noel's (as "Leon") unpredictable but pointless marriage to Natalie, Sean's brush with cancer, the melodramatic and contrived shooting incident involving short-term English roommate Molly -- the one with the drug addiction and abusive boyfriend, naturally -- and Tracy's long mid-season absence from the show, leading to Elana's involvement with fellow student DeForrest.

That said, there are some highlights, besides the usual charming Felicity moments that survive amid the uneven season: Meghan and Sean enter therapy, which provides some levity and insight; Episode 13 ("The Blackout") is one of the best episodes ever; Ruby's return in the final episode is a nice touch; Ben's father, deftly played by the late John Ritter, is first introduced.

As for the DVD itself, it's pretty light on special features, but there's enough there to interest most fans. There's a bit from MadTV featuring Keri Russell lampooning Felicity, a mini-doc on Junior Year called "docuventary," featuring Greg Grunberg and, of course, the usual audio commentary. The episodes can also be played with Spanish audio, which is a kick (at least, for English-only speakers like myself).

Can't wait for Senior Year, which is the best of all four seasons. Look out, Felicity! Hannah's on her way back and I think she's learned Kung-Fu!

5.0 out of 5 stars Can't wait for season 3, Sep 23 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Felicity:S3 (DVD)
This series is the best drama ever! It's so pure and intense. This series has so much feeling to it. There's depth and detail, but it's also very entertaining. This is a series that knows how to balance drama and humor. And the characters feel real. I'll pick Felicity over any other series to watch. Felicity represents drama at its best. Too bad there isn't much good drama anymore. When Felicity got cancelled, it came as a shock. Though my worry was that if Felicity would continue another season, that it would end up repeating itself. So in all, the four seasons of Felicity present a nice rounded off story that all takes place in college. My season 3 box will arrive shortly. I'm so excited. The only thing bothering me is that some of the episodes from season 1 and 2 DVDs have different music than was broadcasted. I have some of those shows taped and the original broadcasted music is much better - the new audio mix is also done pretty badly. For those episodes, I'll watch the video tapes.
