The Extras
Season three contains a number of small features and a gag reel. The first feature provides an overview of the 4400 and touches on the events of Season 3. A second feature focuses on the different character roles and story telling. The third feature focuses on the visual effects of the show with specific examples from the show.
Overall
Season 3 slowed the story telling down in comparison to season 2 which brought about more questions. This left the writers the opportunity to continue with a fourth season. Don't let that stop you from checking out this show. It's one of the best sci-fi shows on TV and with only 30 plus shows it won't take you that long to catch up.
The third season of the 4400 is available at Amazon.com
