Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
ThiefHott Too much of everything
Marketic It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.
CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
elavigne7885 One of the best television series to come out from Britain. Good plots,music score,etc. But when the producers decided to replace Craig McLaclan with Steven Houghton,to play the role of Ed,this was the down fall. Steven Houghton did not fit into the role playing Ed. The rest of the cast did a good job in their roles.but Steven Houghton was not suited for the role of Ed. Eventually the show was cancelled. But,the last episode,was very disappointing. This TV show is available on DVD and can be purchase from Basdvd.com or Amazon.com in the U.K. If you live in Canada or the United States,make sure your DVD player will play region two,European standard,used in Europe. Region one is the standard for Canada,and the United States. If your DVD player is a region one DVD player,on the internet,type in,video help.com. When the web site shows up,scroll down to hacks,press in your DVD player name,example,philips DVD 2800,this web site will tell you how to make your player region free. Most DVD players you can do this to,some you cannot.
Alexander_romulus When I first started watching bugs when I was about 9, I through it was one of the best programs around. However as I got older the shows cracks started to show, the sometimes rather poor special effects and general things that did not make sense. However, when Bugs was at its best it really did quite well, for example the "Cyberax" storyline really captured my imagination and when they did get round to doing the Special effects right, they did them well. I still enjoy watching the show on DVD and to me, it still has not lost its charm despite the noticeable errors. It is my opinion that the show should be remembered well because of how fun it was. Bugs may not have lived up completely to the standards of cool gadgets and supper villains of James Bond or the Avengers, but it still packed some very interesting characters and organisations, i.e. "Jean Daniel" and "The Hive". P.S Why did Craig McLachlan leave the show after series three???
smiley-32 In 1995, the BBC has come up with a new TV series "BUGS". It's supposed to be a 90's version of the Avengers or something.Unfortunately, most of the series I've seen has failed to live up to its standard. Special effects, big bangs (that go off for no reason), hi-tech gadgetry, etc. is certainly well down below par.The characters are not really realistic and I must say Jaye Griffiths dosen't really look like if she's really into the part. More like she's lost in space...All-in-all, the series may've got off to a good start but then it started to decline with the viewers switching over the other TV programmes.Although it hasn't done well in the last series, I don't think the BBC would get another chance to come up such pappy show such as this one..!
sam bullus the premise of this series is very good and the original cast of Jaye Griffiths,Jesse Birdsall and Craig Mclachlan are charismatic. The show has a very distinctive look and yet somehow the episodes are tepid and uninvolving.It is not just the reliance on technobabble or the poorly-staged action and stunts.The series is simply less than the sum of its parts.The problem was compounded in later years as changes to the format meant that the number of recurring characters was almost doubled and the already thin plotlines were spread pretty thinly between them. The final straw came when Craig Mclachlan left and was replaced by Steven Houghton as the same character.He was simply a dull wet piece of wood and enjoyed none of the rapport with his colleagues which had come naturally to his predecessor. The audience turned away in droves and the BBC stopped transmitting halfway through the series.
