Urban Legends: The Complete Season One



fun and entertaining
Some people might find this series a little cheesy, but I like it a lot. It is fun and entertaining, and with the violent and intense programming available on TV, this is a laid back alternative, a little low budget but that is fine with me. I can just relax and have fun with it. If you like quirky shows that don't take themselves too seriously then this could be for you.

ARRRGH!
Beware! This is not the show Mostly True Stories: Urban Legends Revealed that was running on The Learning Channel and Discovery a few years ago. I goofed and bought this disc, which dramatizes 3 stories per episode and challenges the audience to guess which one really happened and which ones are only Urban Myths. The trouble is if you're an Urban Legend enthusiast like me, you already are familiar with these stories and this show doesn't fill in the background on the legends like "Mostly True Stories" does. So you end up with some hokey dramatizations which would tip off even someone who has never heard the stories to which ones "actually happened". Hence, I can't recommend this DVD to anyone and now I need to try to sell the damn thing. BTW-I didn't buy it on Amazon. I wish I had since I could have saved some money.

Good, but corny
Interesting to someone like me who loves a good little mystery and challenge every once in a while, but i wish the set up wasn't so corny
