"Epic" first season, okay special features
Words cannot express how good the first season was. The story line was very fast paced and if you missed an episode you missed a lot. Most of the shows on the CW rarely can catch my interest because they are focusing on a teen audience but I loved watching this with my younger family members. The DVD's special features are not that good, which is typical for the first season of most shows. It has "5 featurettes" (comic-con panel, origins, backstory, history, and PaleyFest Panel) which are interesting but I have found more interesting and entertaining things on youtube. The unaired scenes are divided up for each episode. This is great because I can look at them right after I view each episode. I have had DVDs that put them together and I would have to guess which episode they would/could have been in. There is no gag reel. I hate this because I love to see the cast members when they are not so serious (the way their characters are). Perhaps, the gag reel would not have been as good as those from Supernatural so they left it out.

Great Show
The Originals is a great show in that almost every character is a villain. They all have agendas and goals and will do whatever it takes to achieve them. Some have tragic origins, but they are all evil and that makes it more exciting. When heroes clash with evil, they worry about collateral damage and casualties, but villains can go all out which is fun to see. And what could be better than a four way war between vampires, witches, werewolves, and humans.

Great Series!
If you love vampires, you MUST buy this set of DVDs of Season 1 of "The Originals". The show is awesome and it will leave you waiting for the next season to start. When I watched the last DVD, I wanted more and didn't want it to end! Can't wait until the new episodes begin! I'll be buying "Season 2" when it comes out. You won't be disappointed if you purchase it!
