Series creator Genndy Tartakovsky has said, "The third season is always the toughest in television production," but episodes 27 through 39 of Samurai Jack show no signs of flagging imagination. To the contrary, the Season 3 collection includes some of Jack's best adventures. In the outrageous episode 28, Aku turns teenagers into destructive zombies with rock music. Incongruously clad in hip-hop threads, Jack crashes a rave and defeats the sinister DJ in a wonderfully anachronistic mixture of break-dancing and martial arts kata. Tartakovsky and his artists won a well-deserved Emmy for the two-part "Birth of Evil," that traces the origins of Aku to a primordial, destructive cloud that Odin, Rama, and Ra destroyed. The same gods forged Jack's enchanted sword from human righteousness. The more dramatic stories are balanced against sillier tales: in episode 27, Jack gets turned into a chicken by an irritable wizard, and in episode 33, he has to deal with giant blue teddy bear-like creature, who has an unexpectedly nasty side. The extras include storyboard artist/martial artist Brian Andrews explaining how the crew stylized Chinese Whu Shu and Wing Chun techniques for Jack's combat moves, a gallery of preliminary sketches, and a commentary on "Birth of Evil." It all adds up to a winning package. (Unrated, suitable for ages 10 and older: stylized violence, minor gross humor, grotesque imagery) --Charles Solomon

Samurai Jack May 30, 2009
Kristofer Valadez
If you liked watching Samurai Jack and have been completely unable to find any of the DVD Box Sets anywhere, here they are. The third season is by far the best one. In this particular set you get the award winning "Birth of Evil" which makes the rest of the series look like a badly drawn funny. You also get to watch "Jack versus the Minions of Set" which also surpasses much of the first two seasons. The episode "Jack and the Travelling Animals" which gets as closer than anything in the series to being conclusive. If you like Samurai Jack, buy it. If you like art by Gendy Tartakovsky, buy it. If you like American Idol and think Paula Abdul is a great judge of musical talent, leave we don't want you here. To the remainder of cartoon likers, give Samurai Jack Season 3 a shot.
Jack fans united..... December 1, 2008

Anyone who is a fan would thoroughly enjoy owning any season of Samurai Jack. If you're taking the time to sit and read this about season 3 then you've probably sang the theme song in your head a couple times already......lol. Dang, now it's in my head again. :-) What are you waiting for??? It's a good series. And if you have a good sense of humor a few laughs are in store. Sit back, relax, and just press play.
Excellent Material!! November 24, 2008

If you like season 1&2, you are going to love this one! With a few comic chapters most of this season is concentrate action and martial arts. And all of them, an award winning beautiful animation. There is some episodes that i never seen before on CN because they randomize them and never get it in the proper order.
This it's a "must have" Season.
Just keeps getting better October 10, 2008
Judge Surreal (United States)
I am blow away by how much better the episodes keep getting, I was so excited when I got it I went back and watched the first two seasons. I really how the creator of the show makes more cartoons in the future.
As Good As It Gets October 8, 2008
James E. Helmick (Orlando)
Samurai Jack season 3 is as good as the previous two seasons. Especially with the two part origin story of Aku titled "Birth Of Evil". This is a great DVD set with all the action and adventure one would expect from this great cartoon show. Once again nothing is compromised in originality in this set. The extras are OK, but I would always love more. Certainly a must have for any fan of this show, or cartoon/action shows in general.
