War of the Worlds tv series

I've been looking for this series on street dvds for some time now, and now it is coming out finally November 1st. Now, I'm trying to determine if it is worth buying, or if I can find it at Blockbuster to rent. I remember bits and pieces of it, I distinctly remember being scared to death by it, I was probably 9 at the time, but Time Bandits also scared me as a small child. I distinctly remember blobs in hooded cloaks chasing people, and aliens rotting out of humans, but that just seems corny to me today. The other quandary is, if I can't rent it, and buy it, and don't like it, then I'm stuck trying to resell the set. Looks like Wally World will have them cheap. Anybody else remember this tv show? All I remember about it are the times I watched it with the dog on the couch, hiding under a blanket.

I remember it well, REALLY liked it. The first season starred Richard Chavez as the leader of a Special Forces team, he carried a combat "hawk", pretty cool. They drastically revamped the series for season two, changing it to a covert CIA type resistance movement. The lead then was Adrian Paul, who later went on to fame in the Highlander TV Series.

Kinda miss this show.

I too like the show in the first season. Too bad the producers never heard the saying " if it ain't broke don't fix it". Nothing against Adrian Paul, ( Liked him in Highlander) but putting him in the lead role after butchering the show was like replaceing Captian Smith 30 minutes after hitting the iceberg!

Yeah, anyitme you make that much of a change from one season to the next, it usually kills a show.
