When I first watched this DVD, I didn't expect it to be very funny. But after the first 10 minutes I was surprised. Almost every blooper I found funny. There is also a special feature on the DVD to watch a highlight of bloopers from a certain year. I recommend this DVD to anyone who enjoys baseball.

Ignore the naysayers that call this dvd "disappointing". It was very funny and while it is rare and high priced now, I strongly recommend picking this one up if you can find it in the $10-15 range. It isn't worth more than that,however.

We've worn out an old "This Week in Baseball" bloopers tape from about twelve years ago. This "ultimate collection" is not as good as that single 45 minute special.

There's quite a bit of filler material. The "characters of the game" segments are pretty lame and too long. And some of the best bloopers of all time are missing. I remember one off the earlier tape in which a foul ball turned on the sprinklers - it was screamingly funny, but is not to be found here.

It's not terrible. Bloopers can't help being funny, and there are some good ones. But you need to really like bloopers to pay this price. Total run time is only 90 minutes, and, as I said, there's some filler even in that.

I bought this dvd as a gift for my husband. The whole family enjoys it. We have four grade-school age sons and all of them love to watch this. Do they realize they're learning a bit of history every time they watch it? Probably not. That's just a bonus...
We would all recommend this to any sports fan. It's good fun and there's a lot of viewing on this dvd for the cost.
We bought this dvd with MLB Memorable Moments dvd, a more 'serious' look at MLB and it's legendary players.
Get both if you like baseball even a little bit....

My 8 yr old son and my husband found this dvd to be really funny! We love watching baseball as a family, and we bought this to take on vacation. It was great to watch!

My son and I really enjoyed this DVD. It's full of bizarre plays and bloopers. We had a good laugh over some of them and the "rewind" of the DVD player was put to good use.

However, I was a little sad that it didn't present marvelous or incredible defensive performances.

I hope MLB will in the future come up with a DVD with the incredible wizardry of Ozzie Smith, Fred Lynn or Brooks Robinson.
