Samurai Jack-Season 3
 

Just picked this up and havent watched it yet. I havent even seen this show since i was a little younger and it was on cartoon network. I was never really too into it but watched it when it was on. I havent seen it for years, but today at target i was in the dvd section and was checking out The Batman Season 2 dvd(I heard that during this season the show picked up a little) but i kept looking around and saw the Samurai Jack Season 3 set for 21.99, for some reason I was compelled to buy it and here I am now...lets hope I made a good decision :) Anyone else decide to pick this up?

Yeah, I got it right when I came out. One of my favourite shows of all time. I don't think the third season is as good the first or second, but even bad episodes of Samurai Jack are 100% better than the rest of the crap on TV.

I'm anxious to pick up the first 2 seasons, I heard they are a bit more serious...is this true? Anyone know a good place to look for em?

Hmmm...so no one knows anything about the first 2 seasons? ...How about the fourth one. How do all the other seasons stack up to season 3? Anyone have any favorite episodes? I watched the one where Jack battles all the Undead in the graveyard and then has a one on one fight with Aku today. Definitley the best episode I've seen of this show far. Every episode i watch impresses me more.

Like I said, first and second season are better than the thrid, but I haven't viewed enough episodes from the fourth to form an opinion. That's when the show became increasingly difficult to find on TV in Canada.

My favourite episodes are probably: Episode VII: Jack and the Three Blind Archers from Season 1, where Jack has to try and get to a magic well, guarded by three blind rat-like archers, who rely on hearing to fire their shots. Episode XXV: Jack and the Spartans, from season 2, which was the Emmy winning episode, where Jack helps 300 Spartans defend a small pass into their city from a horde of never ending bull-like robots. Episode XXVI: Jack and the Sandals, also from season 2, is probably my favourite "funny" Samurai Jack episode, in which Jack's sandals get run over by a threesome of transforming motorcycle robots and he searchs for the proper replacement footwear to kick their asses.

In season 3 it would be tough for me to pick a real favourite, as none of them really stand out as much as some episodes do in season 1 and 2. It kinda got away from the action and more into the sureal aspect of the show in season 3, which is still awesome, but I don't think as entertaining on the whole. I would probably go with the 2-parter about the rise of Aku though. That one was pretty neat.
