Sony:
Vampire police detective Nick Knight (Geraint Wyn Davies, TV's '24') is back for the third and final season of the thrilling horror series, FOREVER KNIGHT. Tortured by his immortality, Nick's hunger to recover his humanity is more powerful than his lust for blood. But will Nick ever get to see the light of day? Tracy Vetter (Lisa Ryder) joins the cast as Nick's new partner at the police department, and Davies' real-life son Galen plays Patrick the orphan in 'The Human Factor.' Third season highlights include Nick's possible connection to the mysterious murder of 'Blackwing,' the race to discover a cure for a deadly virus in 'Fever,' and Nick's enlisting of a confined madman to solve a brutal slaying in 'Trophy Girl.'

Though it's achieved immortality in the hearts of its devoted fans, the supernatural-themed series Forever Knight ends with this third-season set, which brings the saga of vampire-turned-sleuth Nick Knight (Geraint Wyn Davies of 24) to a startling conclusion. Change seems to be the theme of the third season (1995-96), which sees the departure of much-loved sidekick Schanke (John Kapelos) under violent circumstances (as detailed in the two-part season opener, 'Black Buddha'), and the arrival of a new partner, Tracy Vetter (Lisa Ryan), who's involved with another creature of the night, Vachon (Ben Bass). Further complicating matters are the return of Nick's former lover Janette (Deborah Duchene), who reveals a surprising twist of her own in 'The Human Factor,' and Divia (Kathryn Long), the daughter of Knight's mentor/nemesis LaCroix (Nigel Bennett), in 'Ashes to Ashes.' But of course, the biggest wrinkle of the third season is Nick's struggle to resist his vampiric urges; this conflict, along with the fates of most of the major characters, come to a head with the series closer, 'Last Knight,' which still packs a punch with its dramatic (some might say drastic) denouement. Blood, romance, mystery, and death--all things that make for an addictive series, and all major elements of Forever Knight's final season, which certainly accounts for the show's long-lasting cult appeal. The five-disc set includes all 22 episodes of the third season, and is rounded out by a trio of appropriately dark and evocative music videos created from series footage. --Paul Gaita

Rating:  - The Finest Vampire Tale of All Time
First off, I love Forever Knight, nay, I worship the series. In every way, it is the best, most profound vampire series ever created, with some of the best written characters in any genre of fiction. Like most of the other fans of this series, this was my least favourite season, but that's like saying that this is my slowest race car. It's still mind blowing and superior to anything on air today (with only Heroes and 24 remotely coming close).
What are the negatives to this season? Well, for ... Read More
Rating:  - Cast Changes Hurt the show
Forever Knight was good campy Saturday Early Evening (it came on at either 6:00 or 7:00pm)fun for the first two seasons. However, when the cast was changed (mentioned elsewhere) the look, feel, and overall flavor of the show diminished.I n many episodes, Nick was reduced to pimping the Vetter character because (whether due to writing, or poor acting) despite being the Commissioner's daughter, she simply was not a good cop. Case in point, in one episode, the villain is hiding behind the door, Vetter ... Read More
Rating:  - What happend to commentarys?
I'm disappointed there was just music videos and no commentaries. I am however happy that i have this on DVD now. I think that the story told in season 3 was better than season 2. There is alot more excitement and a better verity of crimes that take place. It really is sad that this is the last season. There will never be a vampire show quite as good as this.
Rating: - Great Show, Ahead of its time
This was a very good show that has been copied many times over the past few years. Although the special effects aren't always the greatest, the story will keep you coming back for more. A must have for any fan of the vampire genre.
Rating: - excellent must have
The Forever Knight Trilogy is an excellent dvd. It is a shame that the series was not cintinued. It had a very entertaining subject matter and was very well mixed with modern takes of the vampirical theme. I thoroughly enjoyed the series when it ran and am very happy that they put it on dvd. thanks ever so much. I would give it more stars than five but that is only me. I would like to see more of this type of movie.
