Synopsis:
The 4400 tells the stories of 4,400 alien abductees after they are returned to earth. In the words of the executive producers, these are stories of people dealing with traumatic changes, driven by the mystery of what happened and why. Some of them have been affected in mysterious ways, and some will have certain abilities, both good and bad, so part of the drama will be watching them adjust to these changes within themselves.

I had no idea what to expect when I bought the first series of The 4400.
The box`s back looked interesting enough, so I said - why not - for 11 US$.
And boy, oh, boy - The 4400 turned out to be a very good series!
It has just the right amount of sci-fi and drama mixed together, with some very nice special effects and a good story to match.
The video transfer is very good. There are no compression signs and the picture is crystal clear.
The DD 5.1 soundtrack is very good, too. The surrounds are used throughout the series and create a very nice sound envelope for a TV-series.
The menus are still and silent.
The 2 disc set does not offer any extras at all.
Bottom line - a very good first (and too damn short!) season that may remind some people of "Roswell", but alas, a bare disc. Still - recommended.
