Customer Rating:      Summary: Third Felicity Season is great! Comment: This product was in excellent condition, exactly as described, and highly entertaining. Now all I need is senior year! Very prompt delivery and I am highly satisfied.
Customer Rating:      Summary: gets better & better! Comment: oh JJ Abrams - you are amazing.
love this whole series. so sad it ended... so happy I have it on DVD to watch whenever I want/need to!
Customer Rating:      Summary: This Was A Pretty Wild Season Comment: I'm pretty sure that this was the season where I wanted to kill Ben for making some of the most dumbest decisions ever. And he was hurting Felicity so much that I almost couldn't take it the first time around (2000-2001). But now I'm older and I see how much we all fell head over heels ffor someone like Ben Covington. Noel went nuts in the beginning of this season and disappeared so nobody knew where he was. We were introduced to Molly who was in love with an abusive guy who came back and tried to kill her. Meghan turned into someone the audience actually grew on. Felicity ends up in bed with a Frat guy and doesn't remember if she slept with him or not. Her pic ends up on the internet and Ben finds out about it. If you haven't seen this season yet, I'm sorry if I ruined it for you. I think this season was the most personal because now everyone is like real family. Everyone's grown into their own and the chapters get a bit deeper into the college life and experiences.
Good watch and a must have.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Good -- but lacking the dramatic tension of the first two seasons Comment: There are a lot of changes in FELICITY during Season Three, few of them for the better. This can be seen even in the opening credits, where the gorgeous black and white photos of the first two seasons were replaced by an uninspiring montage from the first two seasons to go along with some insipid song about changing as a person. I don't know what motivated this, but I would guess that it was the result of pressure by the network. Usually when really bad things like this happen, it is because the corporate powers that be put them pressure on them to make changes.
More troubling is that the story arcs of Season 3 just lack the oomph of the story arcs of the first two seasons. Especially in the second half of Season 2 the dramatic tension was at times overwhelming. The situations created by the writers in Season 3 more often than not feel contrived and artificial. And not only are the arcs not as good, there are not as many of them. Season 3 is far shorter than any of the other three seasons.
Still, the show never gets actually bad. And I like that they kept Felicity and Ben a couple all season. Few Hollywood shows are willing to take up the challenge of keeping a shows main romantic couple together. Noel spends the year as the odd man out, without a major relationship like he had in Season 2 with Ruby. He does, however, start the season off involved in a hideously inappropriate marriage and briefly becomes essentially a stalker of Tyra Banks.
One thing that I really like about FELICITY in all of its seasons is a near complete rejection of fairy tale endings. Good things happen, but more often than not there is no deus ex machina to rescue characters when they get into bad situations. Bad things happen and they just get past them rather than easily triumph over them. Though the show doesn't compare well with the first two seasons, it nonetheless remained highly watchable. I am not the fan of Sean and Meghan that some are, but it is fun to see their roles expand in this season. The one downer is that Amy Jo Johnson left the show, reportedly because of the death of her mother. Her absence did hurt the show.
Customer Rating:      Summary: worth it if you are a felicity fan Comment: I loved Felicity when it was on TV, so I really enjoy this DVD set. I can watch these episodes over and over again. Only buy this if you really enjoy the show.

The education continues during Felicity's junior year. Felicity, played by Golden Globe winner* Keri Russell, returns to the University of New York for a new course in self-discovery. Her big decision to move in with Ben shapes the direction of the school year, but it's just one of the many exhilarating challenges in a spectacular season of passion, heartache and excitement in the city.
