I'm glad that they finally released Hi-5 as a season, but this DVD set appears to have been thrown together in a few hours. There's no episode list, and some menu options didn't work. You have to go through all 3 discs yourself to find out what's in it. On the other hand, my daughter LOVES Hi-5, and I can put in a disc, choose Play All, and not have to futz with it. It also comes with some stickers which I'm sure my daughter will enjoy sticking in odd places all over the house.

We went to a couple of shows when they were touring, we all have
a great time. It is wonderful finally the first season has been released,
since we haven't heard from them lately.
The DVDs are great just as the show is. We would like the box
had a list of episodes on each DVD, but anyways not a big
complaint... What it really disappoint us... especially my little "Nick"
is that the week of "games" episodes are missing!!....five whole episodes
of "Games" which I believe belong to the first season, were not included... that is sad from Well go USA or whoever
decided it....
Other than that, a five star to the HI-5 DVD set!

This season 1 set contains 3 DVDs with a total of 20 full episodes. The only drawback is that they use the same song at the beginning and end of the episodes for several episodes in a row. So, even though the episodes are different, we find ourselves fastforwarding through the songs at the beginning and end so we don't have to hear the same song 10 times in a row. Other than that, it's a great set.

The songs, motions, dances, people, and music on this DVD are superior. My son isn't yet two, but he is singing and dancing right along with these "animals".

I purchased this for my 2 year old daughter because she loves watching it. My DVR ran out of memory so this was a great opportunity for her to watch them on video and add memory to it. She loves it and has learned a lot from watching them. Highly recommend them to your little ones!!

This is a favorite in our house. I know that others have complained about the volume adjusting, but ours is just fine. My little ones just love this DVD. I like it because I don't have to put episodes on my DVR. I can't wait for season 2 to come out on DVD, I'm sure that we will be adding it to our collection.

Well, according to the Curtis Cregan web site, there are 70 episodes of Hi-5 and it got the following 14 themes: Senses, Animals, Machines, Adventure, Games, Bodies, Wishes, Music, Colors, Making, Action, Teams, Wonderful, and Journeys.
So if it can be released in 3 sets (if the other ones came with 5 themes).

My little guy loves Hi-5 so he loves the DVD. I hate to give them a 3 star, but the DVD quality is really bad. The sound volume goes up and down throughout most of the songs, it's REALLY annoying. We checked our sound system and it's working fine with all other DVD's. It's really bad in the main song at the beginning and end of the shows. Since my son is only 14 months he doesn't notice it, but for the price we paid for the DVD I would have hoped for a better quality recording. I agree with the other posts too, I think there are some episodes missing and the menu options are not that detailed. I will probably have to return it, the sound going up and down constantly is horrible.

This DVD is great for my 2 year old friend! He loves the songs and stories. The colors are so vivid! The episodes are short enough for a little TV time and can be selected by Theme fairly easily once I figured out the menu selection process. Great to start while I'm making breakfast!

My daughter and I watch these shows at least once every week. She loves to sing and dance with the show. The picture quality is better that the TV shows.
