If Felicity was always a collective portrait of young adults perpetually at a crossroads, then Felicity: Senior Year Collection (The Complete Fourth Season) concerns that moment when one realizes the long-deferred future of grown-up responsibilities has finally arrived. In other words, Senior Year is about decisiveness and commitment shaking things up among Felicity's tight-knit group of soon-to-graduate college friends and significant others, all of whom recognize now the urgency to make clearheaded choices that will permanently affect careers, family ties, love lives, and self-respect. Not that any of Felicity's familiar characters are prepared for that kind of Hamlet-like pressure. Bad judgment, impulsiveness, the flotsam of unresolved relationships, envy, and selfishness are still driving forces behind the mercurial actions of art major Felicity Porter (Keri Russell) and her off-and-on boyfriend Ben Covington (Scott Speedman), former beau Noel Crane (Scott Foley), cynical pal Meghan Rotundi (Amanda Foreman), the latter's well-meaning hustler of a partner, Sean Blumberg (Greg Grunberg), and assorted students and confidantes who comprise Felicity's inner circle. But the stakes are much higher this time. Ben's alcoholic father (John Ritter in a sympathetic, touching performance), in true medical trouble, can no longer be angrily dismissed by the younger man as in previous seasons. A careless fling between Felicity and Noel is no mere bump in the road anymore for the former and her true love, Ben. Nor is Ben's imminent fatherhood (he and the young addict his father is sponsoring become pregnant) the kind of inconvenient wrinkle Felicity invariably forgave in the past. Everyone is playing for keeps now, and the absorbing dramas and tensions in each well-written, constantly surprising episode have an air of finality about them. Things get particularly interesting--arguably controversial--in the last two or three scripts, in which an anomalous time-travel gimmick (of all things) gives viewers an opportunity to see alternative finales for the four-year-old series. It's a go-for-broke idea that asks Felicity's loyal audience to take a leap of faith just to see what happens, and the results are indeed unexpected and rewarding. Special features include a particularly good, behind-the-scenes documentary about the making of the last episode. --Tom Keogh

1) Must have for the fans   [Rating: 5 out of 5]
Simple enough....if you enjoy the show, you MUST have the Senior year!! This show was the best!!!

2) Still one of my favorites.   [Rating: 5 out of 5]
Felicity - Senior Year is the final season of this muchly-missed, classy show. Some of my favorite episodes from season four include: Miss Conception, The Storm, The Last Thanksgiving, Fire!, Raising in Arizona, The Graduate, and Spin the Bottle. Keri Russell is so good as the title character, hope she gets to be on another show one day, she's too talented for words. Oh boy Scott Speedman, what a babe he was! Everyone is excellent on the show and the writing is top-notch, this show is funny and serious. I have every season, but season four is my personal favorite. I highly recommend getting all four seasons, have fun!

3) So sad it's over   [Rating: 5 out of 5]
Felicity has finally graduated college. I love this season because it doesn't leave you in the air about the characters. You find out what everyones future has in store for them and you're left knowing that everyone is going to be ok.

4) Disappointing special features   [Rating: 4 out of 5]
at $45, I wish they had put more effort into this set. The best extra is the Elena mystery feature, but the creators' response to the controversial missing footage is still less than satisfactory. Why did they have to cut out the 'save Elena' scenes from the actual final episode? They claim that the final episode was about 20 minutes longer than the usual 43 minutes allocated by the network... no wonder, with all those flashbacks! they could've been more creative, maybe they didn't have to show the full scenes and just have Felicity describe the moments and the emotions attached to those memories to that spell guy. I can only imagine all the good-byes and other interesting moments that were edited out, and that SHOULD HAVE BEEN on this dvd. why aren't they here!? it's not like there's going to be a special edition in the near future, considering that the show was not such a big hit. those who like it already bought this version, and we should have been given all the material that was available. where are all those missing scenes from the extra 20 minutes they say they shot?

5) Felicity-Senior Year in great condition   [Rating: 5 out of 5]
The condition of the senior year of felicity was in excellent condition. I am very pleased with the condition of the dvd.
