VR.5

I was into the show, even being young at the time, and had to search hard to remember the title and where I could rewatch. I wish they would reboot or at least reshow this series. Definitely deserved more than 1 season

VR5 is without doubt the best, most entertaining and thought provoking and compelling sci fi TV series i have ever seen, or can ever envisage being made.

Despite being shown in the uk after midnight, it is the one show that could enforce insomnia.

I regret that i only happened upon the series by luck, as it seems to have evaded all possible sources of reporting. i hope no other series as Outstanding as VR5 have suffered its fate. inexplicably anonymous.

If this is ever repeated or you cna find a record, watch it buy it, treasure it.

When I first saw this show I was in sixth grade, and it scared me more than anything else I had ever scene. It was the pilot episode and the main character, Sydney, had just taken her mother into her dream world, where the mother freaked out. I had nothing better to do on a friday night, but I avoided the show until one night I had a sleep over and my two friends were channel surfing and they found the show, and we all loved the episode (Escape) soooo much we had sleep overs every friday until it was canceled just to see more.

The idea of a dream world, and how everything you ever read/imagined/saw all of your subconscious could become true was to me "the coolest thing ever". When I finally got to see the whole series I began to wonder why it was pulled off the air, yes sometimes the plot was not the greatest, the episodes were sometimes VERY strange, but there was this amazing quality about it, it was original, it was real (character wise), and it explored something we all wonder about, our dreams.

As time goes by I go back and watch the episodes over and over and they have become better. I now know and understand more of the references, ideas, relationships, it has a deepness A sixth grader could never fully understand no matter how much they loved the show. If you get a chance I believe you should give the show a try.

A few episodes of this show were displayed in the VERY late section of Egyptian Channel 2 TV (3:00 AM). And I've been looking for it everywhere since then! I find these series much better than many other popular science fiction ones. They had a special 'atmosphere' to them that cannot be found in mainstream science fiction series. This and the 80's 'Twilight Zone' are my most favourite. Too bad it was discontinued

This show was Lost decade before Lost and The Matrix several years before The Matrix. And it featured Anthony Stuart Head and Adam Baldwin years before Joss Whedon discovered them.

It's one of the early examples of an incredibly strong sci-fi series being killed by the infamous Fox Friday night death time slot that would go onto to kill so many other great series too soon. One reviewer commented that it's not realistic. Well duh. Fortunately, realism isn't a major criteria for great television. I would love it if a DVD were released for this show, especially if some of the cast and crew could be reunited to put together some DVD extras.
