One of the Best Sitcoms Ever
Nice having the boxed set of the complete (TV + Netflix) series. I consider this one of the most clever, most intelligent, and funniest comedy series ever.

Smart, funny series. Never get tired of it.
This is a really funny series. I re-watch the whole series every couple of years on Netflix. I decided to purchase the DVDs in case Netflix decides to remove it later. I wish Season 5 was available on DVD too.

Great Stuff
If you like more complicated humor, (irony, innuendo and subtle sarcasm) you will love the first 3 seasons. You have to pay attention to the dialog or you will miss some of the best stuff. It's comedy gold.The 4th season is pretty much unwatchable. I couldn't even get through half the episodes. They destroy the characters, and the only chuckles to be found are from recycled jokes of seasons 1-3. They either got new writers or the old ones all had strokes and forgot how to be funny. Watch the first 3 seasons and throw the 4th in the garbage.

Best show on TV EVER!
During the pandemic, went back to DVD's...and no regrets. So, I'm buying my favorites that I gave to Goodwill...with no regrets. This one is one of my favorites EVER!

4 seasons of fun
Good series! The first couple seasons are good fun, but to me I just find everything getting a little repetitive as it goes on. There are a lot of ways you can do the same thing over and over apparently. It’s still funny and unique each time but repetitive at the same time.

The dvd holder is not connected to the case
I like how it had the first four seasons for such a low price. Because if you bought them separately it would be $57.88. All though I didn’t like how the dvd holder wasn’t connected to the case but other then that I loved it I got them 5 days ago and I’m on season 3 already

The Entire Show - In One Place!
A must for any fan.Being a Prime (not Netflix) member, I somewhat resented having to wait for Season 4 (legally), but having the entire show in a single box more than makes up for the delay.Limited bonus features, though the commentary episodes are fun, but plays smoothly on a PC.Have to say, sometimes boxed sets come in cheap cases that make it tricky to remove the DVD without either damaging the disc or the box. Not so here - the "press to remove" bit in the middle works as required and isn't too fiddly or stiff in the slightest.If you've not yet encountered Arrested Development, you've been missing out. It's a joyous, clever, brilliantly-written show about The Ultimate American Family and their adventures in losing all their cash. A stellar cast are joined by some surprising cameos and perform in a show that's so well written you'll be finding new in-jokes (which you can google if you miss them - there's lots to find!) every time to watch it.Do yourself a favour and get this for your next rainy day in - you won't regret it.

Arrested Development is one of the most funny, clever
Arrested Development is one of the most funny, clever, well written comedy series of our time without a shadow of a doubt. I have watched series 1-3 so many times I cd almost quote it . As a treat to myself ( I'm so worth it ;) I ordered the boxset so I could own the entire series in one box. I was so so excited to finally watch series four I literally skipped meals in order to finish it!! However my fevered anticipation of it was not met with an equally satisfying viewing experience sadly:( :( The writing in series four just does not equal the other three series. As the episodes develop, if you will excuse the pun, the story lines do improve and we suddenly see how cleverly all the characters stories start to intersect and connect but it finishes so abruptly so so suddenly it's almost like a slap in the face for the viewer too! Such a shame it ended with a fizzle rather than a bang.

Sublime comedy cult classic
I came to Arrested Development after binge watching 30Rock. AR is even more deranged and Will Arnett as Gob is just comedy perfection. Superb ensemble cast.I've only dipped into season four, even though a friend said that Netflix messed around with it, but seasons 1-3 are pure comedy gold.

Quick, witty and very clever
One of the best TV shows ever. Season 4 is made slightly differently and you only start appreciating it about half way through when all the elements start coming together again. Have patience with season 4 though and it's worth it
