Hmmm - Not Blu-Ray and Maybe Better To Wait For the Entire Series?, October 3, 2008
This review is from: The L Word: Seasons 1-5 (DVD)
This is a terrific temptation, especially if you don't already own any of the series DVDs. After all, how tempting is it to have 5 seasons worth of episodes instantly available! So much better than buying individual episodes and cheaper than buying each year separately. It is an incredibly long stretch between seasons, and a 5-year set provides a lot of viewing!
The downside, and the reason for 4 stars, is that at this point, it would be better to buy the series in Blu-Ray, as the HD format wars are over, and with the final season coming, it seems sort of weird to buy such a "so close but yet so far" set. Still, the Blu-Ray point is stronger. I think I would regret not having an HD version in a year or two. Come on, Eileen - where's the Blu-Ray version!?

Love It, November 29, 2008
This review is from: The L Word: Seasons 1-5 (DVD)
It's great to have all of the seasons together. I end up watching way too much L Word, but it's worth it! I'm super happy that I have all of the episodes to watch whenever I feel like watching them.

Addictive. Amazing!, October 26, 2009
This review is from: The L Word: Seasons 1-5 (DVD)
I first saw an episode from a later season on Showtime, which somewhat ruined the anticipation of one particular event, but I didn't think that I would like this series at all from that episode. I kept hearing from my friends that I needed to watch it, so, I found it on Netflix and watched Season 1. I couldn't stop! I was instantly hooked with such appealing characters and a great story line. I found myself unable to pull away from it. I then purchased Seasons 1-5. I wanted to watch them straight through but found that difficult without completely failing in all aspects of my life. Obviously, I loved the series and couldn't stop watching. After finishing Seasons 1-5, I couldn't wait until Season 6 released on DVD and I bought it the day that it came out. I love the L Word and find myself thinking about it in a lot of different situations. I relate "real-life" to the show on several occasions during my day and I can't stop thinking about it. I love the characters and I wish there were more so that I could watch them too. I have re-watched most of the episodes by now and love the episodes every time I watch them.
