Editorial Review: Movie DVD Witchblade: The Complete Series Reviews: Absolutely beautiful on DVD!  2010-01-01 - I had watched Witch Blade when it first came out on TNT, taped it and watched it 2 more times since then. Then I just bought myself the DVD and have just finished watching the first 2 hours. I think the show is incredible and every time I watch it I see more and more in it. It is filmed beautifully in NYC, alot of the shots are so creative. There are many layers and you miss so much just watching it once, to really appreciate it you need to watch it over and over. The DVD is great, the quality is as good as I hoped it would be. I am extremely pleased and would recommend this DVD to anyone who liked the series.
Witchblade the Complete Series  2009-12-02 - I bought two of these, one for a gift and another for myself. I am also thinking of getting a third set, for another gift.

Witchblade Fan with Mixed Feelings  2009-11-16 - Well, first of all, the price was excellent. To get the entire series (2 seasons plus pilot etc.) for this price was unexpected! As for the content of the series, i had never seen it before and was a bit disappointed.
The first season was great, but the second season felt like the beginning of a long series. There should have been more seasons to wrap up the story. Season one is one long story with a good and hopeful ending. It should have stopped after the first season or gone 3 or 4 more seasons to reach a proper finish.
I read somewhere that Yancy Butler had to go to rehab and they cancelled the show.
The characters are fairly good: All the cops are good, Ken Irons is pretty good, although not as big and strong as the comic, and Ian Nottingham is sometimes laughable in his manorisms and pouting face. The comic showed him as stoic (i think) and this show makes him childlike mostly.
Lastly, (obviously the budget wasn't there) the Witchblade doesn't really do much cool stuff. No shooting fire, minimal organic tendrils or morphing. Mostly it's metal and either sword-gauntlet, armor or both. It seems its only powers are blocking bullets (which gets really old) and giving Pezzini some psychic powers (plus some time control).
Super Witchblade fans would like it in their collection. Casual viewers may not.
Awesome  2009-11-08 - Loved this series and wish it never was yanked off the air. Wish they would make a movie about it using Yancy Butler. She fit this role to a tee.
Witchblade: The Complete Series  2009-10-24 - Glad to discover the series was on DVD. Felt this series was one of the better Sci-Fi / Adventure / Fantasy series released for broadcast TV. Was disappointed that the ratings forced a cancellation.
