This was a terrific season that started off a terrific show. It's been officially confirmed by tvshowsondvd.com that the pilot movie will be included, by the way. I hope it will also include other features like interviews or something, but, somehow, I doubt it. Ah well, maybe next time. Anyway, I'm really looking forward to seeing these great episodes again. Thank you, Paramount, for finally releasing this classic gem on DVD. Keep the sets coming!
