Description
PILOT: Seven men unite to save a Seminole Indian village from The Ghosts of the Confederacy, a group of renegade soldiers threatening complete annihilation. The Seven courageously defend the village from the pillaging soldiers in this electrifying series premiere. ONE DAY OUT WEST: J.D. (Andrew Kavovit) volunteers to serve as a sheriff when a Federal Judge comes to clean up the town, and Judge Travis enlists the Seven to protect it. WORKING GIRLS: The town takes in a group of 'working girls' escaping from their vengeful master. SAFECRACKER: An ex-safecracker traveling through town is forced to return to her nefarious ways by an adamant ex-partner. WITNESS: Mary's (Laurie Holden) young son visits, only to be haunted by his memories of a rogue townsperson. Erza's (Anthony Starke) con-artist mother comes into town. NEMESIS: Chris pursues the man he believes is responsible for the murder of his wife and sons. The rest of the seven try their best to keep Chris from doing something he might regret. A reporter follows the men around to get a story. THE COLLECTOR: The Seven get involved when a "collector," Guy Royal, attempts to buy a string of homes: the future home of the railroad. Royal's hired gun has a bone to pick with Chris over an incident many years back. Josiah (Ron Perlman) is excited with his former love, saloon singer Emma comes to town. MANHUNT: Vin takes the lead in a manhunt to catch an escaped prisoner who took a local woman hostage. The girl's father, the local preacher, seeks vengeance. INMATE 78: Chris is arrested and thrown into a gulag-type prison camp while intervening in the arrest of an innocent man. He's subsequently informed that the sheriff identifies drifters who look like they have money, and arrests them on trumped-up charges until their families pay the bail. Vin, Ezra and the boys search for Chris when he doesn't return.

4 out of 5 stars The family friendly West   March 22, 2008

If you've seen the movie, you know the plot of the "Magnificent Seven" TV series: seven just men band together to protect the citizens of a small town from outlaws. This is basically what happens in every episode of "The Magnificent Seven", but that doesn't mean that it's not a lot of fun.

This is the family-friendly, sanitized for television version of the west, everyone bathes and the good people behave the way they should have behaved. The first season is a lot of fun. It's pure action, with just the right amount of comic relief. Unfortunately, in the second season, the writers introduced a lot of psychological issues, which spoiled the fun, but you don't have to bother with those. Just stick with the first season.

This boxed set comprises the nine episodes of season one (including the movie-length pilot episode), packaged in slim-line cases. There are no special features included on the DVDs.



5 out of 5 stars Bring them back, Please!!!!!!!   February 27, 2008

Actually missed this when it was originally broadcast. Can't believe It took me until now to catch this fantastic series! Amazon put these on sale at a terrific price and after reading the reviews decided to take a chance. The acting is great, the location shots awesome and the stories engrossing! Why this show didn't get renewed for many, many years is beyond me! If you like westerns you cnat't go wrong with this series.


4 out of 5 stars Nice series with some content, and a western to boot!   December 26, 2007

The Magnificent Seven TV series is pure western drama! And now that Season 2 The Magnificent Seven - The Complete Second Season is also out on DVD, the story line is finally complete. If banal trivia like Three's Company is on DVD, why not this series? 'Sides, I just like lookin' at open skies, horses, and tall, lean, handsome fellas who'll save the day!


5 out of 5 stars This is wonderful!   December 2, 2007

I bought this series because Ron Perlman is in it. I had never seen this
when it was on originally. How did I miss this show? My husband is the
western fan and we have been watching it together. The stories are great and the show looks and feels authentic. The whole cast works together beautifully and the stories are wonderful. I agree with all the other five star reviews. This show should have been on longer.
