5 stars Excellent
Short review....saw the whole 26? episodes when I lived in the UK. Couldn't wait to see the next scheduled episode..tremendous acting....thinking of buying the set but will only settle for the original series. I understand there was a remake?

5 stars A Splendid DVD of the "Forsyte Saga"
We taped the original "Forsyte Saga" on an older recorder during periods of atmospheric interference. Nevertheless, this imperfect version has continually enthralled us and many of our visitors over the years. Some have watched for up to 8 hours at a time. We are thrilled with the vastly improved picture and sound qualities of our recently purchased DVD which enhances the dramatic storyline beyond our highest expectations. We look forward to acquiring other, older, all- time classics of the "Forsyte" genre.

Forsyte Saga - Complete Original Series DVD Features



The miniseries that started it all! In 1969, a internationally-acclaimed BBC show began airing on the fledgling public broadcasting network. The Forsyte Saga, in telling the remarkable story of a nouveau riche English family, introduced America to a new kind of TV. Millions of Americans devoted the next half year of their lives to following the frank treatment of all sins, foibles and peccadillos of the Forsytes and their circle. The passing decades can never the erase the memory of their extraordinary eveningswith the Forsytes: Kenneth More as Jo, the philosophical outsider; Eric Porter as Soames, the grasping man of property; Nyree Dawn Porter as Irene, "born to be loved and to love" and in later episodes, Susan Hampshire in an Emmy-winning performance as Fleur, Soame's 'restless' daughter. The series was so popular that Masterpiece Theatre was created to meet the new demand for great literary adaptations. With 150 characters, 2000 separate costumes and over 100 sets, this sprawling yet intimate saga continues to move, provoke and entrance viewers today.

Kylie Minogue Fever CD  (2002) (Import) Bonus Tracks; Japan

Forsyte Saga - Complete Original Series film
CD $41.75
The 2002 enhanced Japan-only version features four additional tracks and two videos. It's more than just journalistic shorthand to refer to Kylie Minogue as the European Madonna. She's been at it as long as the Material Girl, and her mix of sexy style and dance-pop sound is very much in league with that of her American counterpart. The catch here is that, while Minogue had previously only been a star in Europe, FEVER represents her American breakthrough. Not surprisingly, the sound of FEVER will appeal to fans of Madonna's MUSIC album. It's full of bubbly synths, amiably poppy melodies, club beats ...

Barbra Streisand Duets CD  (2002) Remastered

Forsyte Saga - Complete Original Series DVD
CD $6.85  4.8 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
DUETS is a compilation of duets and contains a new duet recording with Barry Manilow, "I Won't Be The One Let Go". Barbra Streisand's long and varied career is the stuff of legend, as the actress/director/songstress consistently takes chances, never content to rest on her laurels. DUETS, a collection of her collaborations, reflects this wide-sweeping talent, amassing tracks from every facet of Streisand's career. DUETS includes partnerships with stars of pop, country, soul, disco, rock, songwriters of a bygone era, and stars of Broadway and opera. It boasts a track from probably the most famous record to bear the same title (Frank Sinatra's DUETS), a live duet with Dorothy herself culled from a 1963 episode of the Judy Garland Show, and the underappreciated mellow-cool "Guilty" with Bee Gee Barry Gibb. Number One hits with Neil Diamond and Donna Summer sit alongside less remembered ...

Fritz Lang (METROPOLIS, M. THE BIG HEAT) used a scenario by his then wife Thea von Harbou about a trip to the moon to continue his early investigations into science and technology. When scientist Manfeldt finally gets the chance to go to the moon and prove his theory of the existence of lunar gold deposits, he is disappointed to discover that he must travel with various strangers. They include Frieda and Hans--a newly wed couple, a scheming financier named Turner, Wolf Helius--the engineer in charge of the expedition, and Gustav--a young castaway. When the crew actually discovers gold in the lunar caverns, the greedy Turner faces off against ...
