Futurama: The Complete Series



Boooooo Wendy Testaburger. Boooo, BOOOOO.
First, let me say that I love this show. To the show, I would give it a rating of 4.5. This review is for the way the set is set up.

What in the hell is this? I was excited to get my set today. I opened it up and saw the things that held the DVDs. I knew I was in trouble. It is so cheaply made. You pull the thing holding the DVDs out and the freaking discs either fall out and roll all over the place, or they are so stuck in the thing you have to pry them out. Volumes 1 - 5 and The Beast with a Billion Backs have discs that are so badly damaged, that even after running them through a disc cleaner multiple times, they are still damaged. This is one of the cheapest sets I have ever seen. I got it from Familyvideo. I hope they let me get another set and still keep the one I have so that I can swap the discs. If not, I am just going to send this cheap piece of junk back. To anyone who gets this. Check each disc.

Just a quick update. I wrote to...

Love this show, but this product sucks.
This product is terrible for DVDs. The cases are made cardstock paper which use slits to hold the discs. This scratchs the discs each time you pull them out and place them back in. This would be a great solution for Blu-Ray, since they don't scratch, but as these are DVDs which can be scratched by anything short of air this is a complete waste of money until the BD versions emerge. Not to mention the first 4 seasons still have the terrible navigation system from the past release and no play all feature has been added for the first 2 seasons to at least help.

Looks cool on the outside, Cheap and flimsy on the inside.
Let me start off by saying the box is amazing, looks really cool. However once you slide out the cover you are left with the box and all the season and movies in their individual own CARDBOARD cases - whilst the designs on them look cool, the actual dvd cardboard cases are flimsy and cheap looking. What's even weirder is that two of my cases are damaged, one of the movie cases is squashed (this is what happens when you make the cases out of a weak material) and the other looks like its recived wear and tear, as in it looks like its been banged around a bit. Yet the large out box, has no damage to it at all, so it was damaged before it was put into the box). All the season's look like the updated released versions so they aren't anything new, or special for this new release, which is dissapointing. The actual discs are in stupid slots that make it hard to get the discs out, and I can tell that taking them out on multiple occasions will cause them to get scratched easily. The menu's are...
