The best episodes surround the Golden Hind arc of 3 episodes, dealing with a lot more serious issues than normal on the show. As a DVD set, there are plenty of extras. A couple of excellent commentaries by Kevin Sorbo and Michael Hurst provide wonderful insights into the making of the show and into the whole process of making a TV show in general. There are some nice interview clips too.

A lot of Hercules fans still consider Season 3 as one of the best. There are still lots of stand alone episodes at this point in the show, with plenty of twists on Greek/Roman mythology. The actors have really got into their roles by this point too and for the most part it all makes excellent entertainment.
If you like this type of show or are already a Hercules fan AND can play Region 1 DVDs, I highly recommend this set. The one or two episodes that were weak, along with the fact the design of the DVD set is a little odd...with episode 22 on a disc all by itself, loses a star though.
