I am a true fan(atic) of Dr. Quinn and was excited to see this complete set. When I received it I was pleasantly surprised to find that the set also included the movies. This was not clear to me from the product description provided and since the website stated that the movies were frequently ordered with the megaset I took that to mean they were not included. So I ordered the movies separately and now will have to return them.

The series itself is worthdefinitely 5 stars. However I gave an overall rating of 4 stars because of the packaging. Although a very innovative way to hold all these DVDs in a compact space, it was not as sturdy as I expected and the so-called "faux leather" is more like thick brown cardboard. The leather tie is not a tie at all since it was only attached to the front cover and not the back. Perhaps it is broken but I didn't see anything that suggested it was ever attached to the back cover. Despite these packaging issues I will not return the set because the main thing are the DVDs themselves and they are wonderful! A definite must buy for the true Dr. Quinn fan.

Movies arrived in great shape. Work well. Note to those buying as a gift, this set DOES include the two Dr. Quinn movies that were also produced in addition to the regular television episodes.

I purchased all the DVDs that are in this set as they were originally relaesed at very high prices just so I could have this remarkable program for future enjoyment. This Complete Series offering is only slightly more expensive than a single season DVD set I bought early on. Had I known that everything would be available as one set now at this price, I would have waited and saved several hundred dollars. If you are a fan of good wholesome family television, then buy this set immediately because this price is unbelievably great. There is nothing on television anymore that compares to shows like this one, The Waltons, or Little House on the Prairie. I wonder if there will ever be another program like these given the vulgar nature of most TV shows now. Treat yourself and enjoy a classic TV series that wasn't full of foul language, sex and violence.

When this show originally aired I was in highschool and busy with homework and social events so I never had the pleasure to watch it. A friend of mine suggested this series to me and her and I watched the entire DVD collection from beginning to end over a 4 month span. What an incredible show this is. The characters are great and I love the family values presented in this drama. I highly recommend this to anyone who likes Native American and early Western American history as well as medical pioneering. As from a previous reviewer, the box is not as sturdy as expected but the discs are the main attraction anyway.

What a wonderful show! I was not able to follow this show during it's regularly scheduled timeslot. This complete series megaset has allowed me to enjoy all the shows. (Haven't finished watching them all yet). The value is great! The presentation value is great. I will enjoy these for as long as DVDs last. My only concern is ... how difficult it is for me to get the DVDs out of the pockets. Younger fingers won't have a problem. That's why I'd like to give it 4 3/4 stars, but the system only allows whole stars.

I loved watching Dr. Quin as a kid, and started renting it on netflix to watch with my sister and her young children who ended up loving it too. One day I thought, why don't I buy it? I found that Amazon had the best price for the box set. I was THRILLED when it showed up, and can sit down with my family to watch it and not have to worry if there is going to be questionable content on it.
I HIGHLY recommend this product to anyone who wants a bit of history, love story, and good, clean entertainment.

The Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman Series is Fantastic! I bought the series one season at a time because of the price. I wish I had known the complete series would come out soon I would have waited. Great characters, wholesome stories and beautiful scenery! Moreover, there is drama, action, love story and standing up for what you believe in all wrapped up into one series that I wish was still around today! If you like westerns, with love and action, this series is for you! I'm glad I have the entire series to enjoy whenever I want!!

This review refers to "DR.Quinn, Medicine Woman" Seasons 1-6 DVDs(Entire Series)

"Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman" is such an addicting series that some may want to consider buying them in this package with all 6 seasons, at once.You can try to limit yourself to only one episode a day, but you will probably find that impossible. I found myself once again involved in the lives of the townsfolk of 19th century Colorado Springs. Dr. Mike, Matthew, Colleen, little Brian, Loren, Myra, Horrace, Hank, Jake, Robert E., Grace, Cloud Dancing, Black Kettle, Miss Olive, The Reverend, and Sully(ahhhh... Sully), have all touched me in some way. After each episode I am left with a tear running down my cheek or a lump in my throat, but most often with a smile, that may now need to be surgically removed!

The stories are so well written and heartwarming. There are very few TV series today that even come close. Week by week, the townspeople slowly warm to a lady Doctor treating their ailments(sometimes adding great tension to the story), as friendships and bonds develop, the love between Dr. Mike and her new family grows, and of course as her friendship with Sully(ahhhh... Sully), turns to romance. Each episode has something new to offer. Some are full of danger and adventure, others touched my heart, some made me laugh, and I even received a bit of a history lesson in each epsiode.

The weekly cast including Jane Seymour, Joe Lando(ahhhh... Sully), Orson Bean, Gail Strickland, Chad Allen and Larry Sellers held me captive with their outstanding work on the series, and great performances by legendary guest stars such as Jane Wyman, Johnny Cash, Diane Ladd, Kenny Rogers, and Robert Culp, add to this already quality program. Add to that the fabulous music of William Olvis, the beautiful cinematography, great direction, and marvelous period costumes and well..I'm hooked!

The DVDs are nicely packaged.Each volume has 6 or 7 discs per season. The feature length pilot is also included in Season 1.They look and sound terrific. The picture is clear with vibrant and lush colors. The Dolby Digital Sound is excellent, and ALL the credits are there.

The one disappointing fact about the these DVDs, is that there are no subtitles or captions for those who need them in order to enjoy this beautiful series(my only reason for taking a star off, this otherwise excellent product). I have had my sets for a while, so you may want to check the product info, or check with a an outside seller(you can e-mail questions to them through Ammy), to see if there have been any newer editions out, that may have updated with this feature.

These volumes at first were pretty darn expensive, but if you are patient you will find this entire set on a good sale. Right now(5/1/11) the price is right! If you are here at a later time, surf the single volumes vs. the set - as well as other editions of the entire set - for best deals.

This series will take you away to another time and place and you many not want to come back!(and did I mention Sully?) So this big package may be worth considering. Enjoy with caution(be careful, very addicting)...Laurie

I LOVE Dr. Quinn and was thrilled to find the entire series and movies in one set. I spent nearly and entire month watching the series form top to bottom. I was disappointed though to find several of my DVDs SKIP!!! and it just happened to be my favorite episodes that were interupted. I was sent a second set only yo find DVDs in that set skipped as well! Now I am in the process of going through both sets and swapping out bad disks for the good ones...a pain!
Love the series and concept, just wish quality control was a little bit better. My advice...go through your set and check for bad disks.

Dreadful. Soundtrack in too many segments is not synchronized with picture. Too distracting to watch at those times. The person who edited the series to this should be fired. The person whose lips are moving should match the soundtrack. If there was a selection of less than 1 star that is how I would rate it.
