Summary: Looking forward to season 3
Review: I missed most of this season because the WB is a only available on satellite and digital cable in Canada and our local station decided (stupidly in my opinion) not to run the show during the regular season, opting instead to run it in the late spring and summer when I was out of town. I've seen a few episodes but most of them I've missed so I'm looking forward to seeing them. This was such a great show and so different than the cookie cutter shows that have become the norm. (...)

Summary: I love Felicity!
Review: I think each season is better and better.
Unfortuantely, I just got to the last DVD and it's totally defective!
The first 4 were terrific, I don't know why this one is damaged.
The docuventary is REALLY bad-- I can't see or hear anything!
Well-- I ordered a replacement one and that should be okay, I hope.
Did anyone have probs with theirs?
I still love Junior year and I can't wait for Felicity and Noel to have their summer!!!

Summary: I'm trying to Felicitize the world!!
Review: I was a Felicity fan from the beginning. I own the first and second seasons. I'm patiently waiting for the third season to be released. (I'm not doing a good job of it)Unitl the third season is released I have been amusing myself, by trying to see how many people I can get hooked on the show. So far I have gotten two of my friends hooked and they are just as excited as I am for the third season to come out. Until then I'm going to have a Felicity revolution.

Summary: Missed most of it....but still can't wait to see it
Review: I watched seasons one and two when they were on air--feel in love. I was at the same point--I still remember how we both "graduated" high school and college at the same time and when the show ended, it was like saying goodbye to all my college friends again. I didn't watch the third season much--I had night classes ;-) So I'm dying to catch-up. I saw most of the fourth season--so I too am waiting with baited breath to make sure they release that one too. Worth watching if you like teen dramas. Worth buying if you liked this show.

Summary: Glad to have it, but a little light on special features
Review: 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!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Keeps getting better...
Review: Junior year was an unbelievable year for Felicity and the gang. I find that I am actually caring about these characters. The episodes have a lot of dialogue that rings true in real life. I felt genuinely hurt for Ben when he was confronted about his plans for a career. I couldn't believe how consumed with Jane Noel was, it seemed out of character for him. While Elena is not my favorite character at all, her relationship with Tracy was heart breaking. Meghan and Sean's relationship gets sweeter and sweeter and I even look forward to Richard showing up!

Above all, I am intrigued by the Ben-Noel-Felicity love triangle. As I watch, I can't get over how much Noel cares for Felicity, and Ben is becoming a character you just keep rooting for. There do seem to be some unusual aspects of their college life, such as why certain characters are taking certain classes, or why Felicity didn't remember that Noel TA'd the class she needed to take for the final. I still don't get why Ben is always drinking, when his father has an alcohol problem.

It was an enjoyable season. Didn't really care for the Avery character, but she provided Keri Russell with some of the most believable emotions I have seen on a TV show. I can't wait for the final season!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Worth the wait
Review: Ok people, if u were thinking do i? or dont i? buy series three on DVD, well DO IT

The extra feature "Docuventary" by Greg Grunberg makes it all worthwhile.
All the characters talking about all the episodes - very cool and kinda enlightening
Sure it's not as strong drama wise as the previous series but is it better than what's on TV now? of course

It's a long weekend down here in sydney and i know what i'm doing!

Summary: I'M SO EXCITED I NEARLY PEED MY PANTS!
Review: ok, so NOT really, but I LOVED FELICITY! It started the fall after I graduated college and it reminded me SO MUCH of my college life. Felicity grew as a person and a character and her adventures through college life touched me and kept me watching EVERY WEEK, week after week, haitus after haitus, for four years. I already own seasons 1&2 and I can't wait for 3&4. If you don't release 4 as well, I'mma hafta come after you guys!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: it's a blessing to know that Felicity fans still exist
Review: OMG! i love Felicity! And while the show was on the air my sister and cousin, who also love Felicity, belived we were the only three people who ever watched the show. thank god, that wasn't true.
although i was in high school at the time the show was actually airing, i know now that Felicity was the best portryal of college life. i can honestly say that because, god only knows how many times in my college life i've said, "What would felicity have done?" so once again, it's a blessing that Felicity fan's still exist. ^__^

Rating: 5 stars
