This starts out with the Baptism of the girls, then we see some rejection, followed by reconciliation. The full moon over the volcano is the Eucharist over the Chalice. Catholics that would like to learn about their faith should get this series. The moon pool is their place of worship and becomes their home. At first the full moon is thought to be their enemy, because it changes them. But when they find they can trust the full moon, it bring them enhanced power and the girls become confirmed. This confirmation changes everything they thought about the full moon. Finally there is the salvation of the world. There is a modesty issue which should be addressed, but this should just give way to discussion, for all the other benefits of the series out weight the modesty issue. The series was extended for a year so some of the characters were lost, do to this another issue surfaces and that is the separation and remarriage of a lead characters father. We are not given the details of these events, so we should not assume the worst case and accept that it was handled properly. As we just add some water to the chalice at every Lamb's supper, we find this series teaching us just what that means.

H2O: Season 1, Volume 1 was a 3-disc DVD-R set that contained the first half (just 13 episodes) of the Australian TV series H2O: Just Add Water. This set was released in 2009 from Nickelodeon, via Amazon's CreateSpace manufacture-on-demand program. The show is enjoyable for children and teenagers to watch. The only unfortunate thing was that no further follow-up DVD sets were made to finish off Season 1 or any for Seasons 2 and 3. This was the only DVD release for North America for this TV series at that point.

In 2012, New Video would release H2O: Just Add Water - The Complete Series DVD boxed set of all 3 seasons for North America, as well as offering all 3 Seasons as Individual sets. I still appreciated the old DVD-R set that Nickelodeon first offered.

I returned this the very same day that it arrived in my mailbox.
I was very disppointed to find that this only contains part of the first season. According to the folks at Amazon's customer service, there is almost no chance that the balance of the first season will ever be released by Amazon; not to mention the other 2 seasons of this great show.
Fortunately all of the episodes exist on both Netflix and Hulu so I can watch them there; but I would have loved to be able to throw a DVD in the machine whenever I wanted to see an episode of this great Australian TV program.

AS U.S. FANS GOT JIPPED WHEN H2O WAS TAKEN OFF IN THE U.S. IN MARCH 2009 & ONLY AIRED 1 EPISODE A WEEK FOR MONTHS BEFORE THEN. IT'S GREAT TO SEE H2O BEGIN TO BE RELEASED ON DVD. HOPEFULLY THE REST OF SEASON 1, SEASON 2 WHICH U.S. FANS NEVER GOT TO SEE THE LAST 10 EPS. OF, AND SEASON 3 WHICH HASN'T AIRED IN THE U.S. WILL BE RELEASED ON DVD. SO ALL U.S. FANS WHO LOVE THIS SERIES WILL GET TO ENJOY IT AGAIN. H20 SEASON 1 VOLUME 1 HAS 13 EPISODES ON 3 DISC SO THERE IS A DECENT MOUNT OF EPISODES PER VOLUME. ALTHOUGH IT COST MORE BECAUSE IT'S A SPECIALTY ITEM IN THE U.S. ONLY SOLD HERE ON AMAZON.COM. EXCEPT FOR 1 SMALL PART IN THE BEGINNING OF 1 OF THE EPISODES WHERE THIS DISC SKIPS. THE DVDS PLAY GREAT AND THE PICTURE IS AS GOOD AS ON ANY STANDARD DVD EVEN THOUGH DVD-R DISC IS USE TO MAKE THE H2O DVD SETS. SO FOR ALL THE U.S. WHO LOVE H2O THIS IS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO OWN H2O EPISODES ON DVD.

I had some reservations when I first ordered this DVD-R fearing it might look like a bad dub (been there, done that). However, I started to think there was no way Amazon would sell something like this independently (not a 3rd party seller) without the quality being top notch. I'm very happy to report the quality is outstanding! Everything from the packaging to the playback video/audio quality is first rate! I can't believe this is supposed to be a DVD-R. My daughter became hooked on this series during its brief two-season run on Nickelodeon. We looked for a long time for Region One DVD versions of the series without any luck -- until recently. Thanks to Amazon, she now has half of the first season of this family friendly outstanding drama-fantasy. Now, we just need Amazon (or someone) to offer more H2O Just Add Water on DVD or DVD-R in Region One format. Thanks again, Amazon!

This is a fun series that our 10 year old daughter discovered. We enjoyed watching it with her and she wants the next season for her birthday. The DVD quality is not super, but it is okay and I guess it's the best available since it's an Australian show.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lovely fun story
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 8, 2013
Bought for my 8 year old's birthday as she had been watching the third series on the TV. She watches them over and over and I must admit to not minding watching with her. Pity the second series is not easily available but perhaps it will be issued in time. Fun and original story dealing with young teen issues.

1.0 out of 5 stars Irreführung
Reviewed in Germany on January 5, 2011
Auf dieser DVD befinden sich nicht alle Teile der ersten Staffel.Was micht stört ist dass keine genaue Information darüber beim Angebot zu finden ist.Der Verkäufer dieser DVD muss sich den Vorwurf der Irreführung gefallen lassen. Es wird zwar nicht behauptet das diese DVD vollständig ist, aber auch nicht das Gegenteil.Versucht sich da jemand einen Wettbewerbsvorteil rauszuholen!

My kids (and us) love this series (well the first couple seasons anyway). My daughter is 7 and I was never worried about her watching this as it's more innocent than a lot of the tosh they dish out to kids these days and entertaining enough for parents to get sucked into story too!
