Description:
From X-Files Producer Chris Carter comes the final chapter of Millennium. With his unique ability to see into the minds of killers, profiler Frank Black left the FBI to join the Millennium Group, a covert team of ex-law enforcement experts battling the growing forces of evil in the world—or so he thought. For when a deadly viral outbreak swept across the country infecting thousands of people and killing his wife, Frank discovered it was all part of a secret plot engineered by the Group. Now, disillusioned and outraged, Frank returns to the FBI determined to expose the Millennium Group. But protecting his job and his daughter, who Frank fears shares his gift, is no easy task when there are group members who believe that if he is not on their side, there is no reason he should be allowed to keep using his gift against them.

In the third season of Millennium, we find Frank Black (Lance Henriksen) a widower and a single father who is completely disillusioned with the Millennium group and their evil intentions. Hell-bent on revenge, Frank rejoins the FBI, gets a new partner, Special Agent Emma Hollis (Klea Scott), and launches a personal crusade to dismantle and expose the Millennium Group. Interestingly, the visionary, quirky, X-Files mythos-like direction in which the producer-writer team of Glenn Morgan and James Wong took Millennium in season 2 didn't sit well with many fans. Now that a good chunk of the Earth's population had been wiped out by the Group's killer plague, which also claimed Frank's wife Catherine (Megan Gallagher), Chris Carter decided to take the helm once again and redirect season 3 back to the dark, apocalyptic crime-fighting genre in which it was intended. The mythos element is still present, but season 3 is a definite return to the look and feel of season 1 where most of the episodes are individual dark crime stories. The scripts in season 3 are consistently sharp (especially Ken Horton's and Chip Johannessen's), and the interesting, new dynamics introduced could have easily carried the show onward for many more seasons. Sadly, it was never meant to be. Like an apocalyptic metaphor, one of the best-written, best-produced, and most-influential shows of the 1990s would be canceled at the end of season 3, less than one year before the year 2000. Fans were left to wonder about the future of Frank Black, Jordan, and the success of his personal vendetta. Fortunately, The X-Files was still going strong at the time and fans got a bit of closure with The X-Files' season 7 tie-in episode 'Millennium' (included on this DVD set). --Rob Bracco

I ordered the Millennium season 3 boxed set Dec. 2007. I never received it. Now one year later Amazon has charged my account for this boxed set which I still have never received. They said they would credit back the charge to my bank account, but it has been two weeks and I still haven't seen that credit.
Rating:  - Total Disconnect From Season 2
Season 2 was hilarious and very, very unique. Unfortunately, many viewers were turned off by the unusual writing and direction - and subsequently turned off the TV. It's sad that something so well written and unique has to be shot down by a lack of viewership, and the result was Season 3...
The third season was more like the first, but simply lacked the energy of the first two seasons. It seemed muted, and hinted at issues from Season 2 that were major, and could not (and should not) have been ignored. The overall strange and disconnected feeling changes the way I view the show, but the reality is that it's still very well written - and very much ahead of it's time. If you liked Season 1, then you will like Season 3. If you enjoyed the direction Season 2 went, then you will still like this third Season, but will not enjoy it as much.
I gave this 4 stars because I reserve 5 stars for the previous season. Despite my critisisms, it is still a really cool show, and for the price you should not pass this up!
Rating: - A Tormented Soul
The third season grows even darker then the previous seasons. Frank Black continues to be haunted by evil and the pull of "the group". A very good series sad to see it end.
Rating:  - Third Season the weakest
The first two seasons of Millennium had some of the finest episodes of any series. Stark and searing, with a raw truth that has been seldom matched. Unfortunately, the series has a total shift and the new "co-star" Agent Hollis is stiff and really brings down the series. Whoever thought of the character and the casting of Hollis made season three a sad shell of a once amazing show.
Rating:  - Millenium Season 3:Dreadfully delicious..
As I watched Frank Black trapped in the vortex of betrayal,loss,recovery and redemption,I was not left with the anticipated hopeless despair that pervaded most of the series.I just enjoyed a slow,sweet ride through the minds of evil men,the hearts of good men and the fear that binds them as one.Best Series ever!
