Love the Flintstones. Have been waiting for a nice priced complete set. Unfortunately the paper sleeves for the discs WILL end up scratching the dvds. Im sure some will be scratched upon purchase . So I will get the single sets. I recommend people buy those instead. Much nicer cases and only about about $15.95 more (105.94 for all the single sets) than that the silly looking box the complete set comes in. Course Im still giving it four stars for the episodes.

UPDATE: The regular sets have now been put back to their regular price of around $32. So its not so good a deal anymore. I guess you could wait for them to be on sale again or just take your chances with the complete set. Plus theres no new bonus material so the only thing your getting EXTRA is the UGLY ORANGE BOX. This set is basically the orignal six season sets repackaged. Again I think its best to wait for good prices on the single sets. The packaging is much more convienent.

the flintstones;the complete series is a must have for those who love classic cartoons or for those who have small children and want to show them what 'real cartoons' are. i highly recommend this series. the only problem is that the discs are hard to get out of the cardboard sleeves that make up the 'book' that they are packed in. seems like the discs will scratch easily. for that reason i give the flintstones a 4.

Just received the set and it's okay being the whole series is here but it's no different from the original 6 sets. I would have liked it better if they included maybe a book or something besides the disks like the Batman Animated series box set does.

It mentions 4.5 hours of extras leading me to believe they added more extras but that's not the case. The extras are the same as in the individual sets.

Packaging comes in 2 booklets made of cheap cardboard with very tight sleeves to insert the disks. This can and will cause some scratches on the disk being it's tight. About half my discs do have visible scratches on them. The booklets are nice with just the episode titles of each disc listed on them.

I hate the ugly orange case so i got rid of it and kept the 2 booklets.

So i give a 3 star rating for the content, and minus 2 stars for lack of anything extra from the original sets.

I like most everything about this complete series box set except the cardboard sleeves that hold the DVDs. The picture and sound quality is excellent considering this cartoon is almost 50 years old. It doesn't appear any remastering has been done. I have seen shows that remastering actually made the picture quality worse. If you are a fan of The Flinstones you will not regret buying this entire series set.
Because of the cardboard sleeves, I give this set 4 Stars.

I have loved the Flinstones since I was a child & was very happy to hear about a complete set. I had never seen them on discs before this set, which I'm now finding out that was available a while back. I've only had a chance to watch the 1st season & I love it. My kids & I have had lots of laughs over it. I like the storage case it's in & even like the little booklets that hold the DVDs because they remind you of story books. However, I don't like the little booklets for holding my DVDs. I had a hard time removing them all from the sleeves when I received it. I have hard cases & another container that I placed them all in (24 cases I believe). I don't want my DVDs scratched & that's what's going to happen if I leave them in the sleeves they sent them in. I thought that was cheaply & poorly done. Looks like they could have created the same style in a hard DVD cases with lock in holders instead of cheap cardboard that just slides in. If they had of been packaged right, I would have given them 5 stars, but I'm rating it 4 stars because of packaging & almost leaned toward 3 stars.

I saw this set advertised and thought wow all the Flintstones in 1 box. Now that I have it I am very disappointed on how the dvds are stored. They are put in cardboard sleeves and if you take them out even once you will put scratches on them and I find this unacceptable.

The Flintstones complete series has to be the worst dvd set for how they pack their dvds, they put them in a cardboard booklet , and their really tight in it, if u pulled it out u would scratch it , meh , i cut them out and a few of them had scratches , one of them i had to go spend 3 dollars to get it cleaned , cause it had a big mark on it and would not play, i was lucky to get that mark off

Good overall but the case is cheap and I would not use the paper sleeves once you remove the disc once, the discs can and will get scratched.

The Flintstones! I Love it! Even the Orange container. But when handling theres some kind of orange paint/dust that comes off onto the hands so I wiped it down with a damp cloth then dried it and that seems to have taken care of it. Also I found it Kind of Hard to get the CDs out of the folders to watch them so I also had to improvise there so as not to get anymore scratches after i saw it on the first one, Scotch Tape works wonders. Anyway, The Picture quality was great and I am loving seeing them all over again after sooo many years. Thank you, thank you, thank you for the release of this beloved series. Kinda makes me want to get the Jetsons now, lol.

I bought this for my husband,who for many years has wanted this collection. He and my children love it. could't be happier.
