I got this set early to review for DVDFanatic.com... Here are excerpts of my review:

The episodes in this set are a mysterious collection. To begin with, by the time the third season started in Spring 2004, it was so popular that a one-hour special episode was filmed, in which MXC games were played at Universal Studios in Florida by college students from the University of Central Florida and various other Orlando-area colleges. Titled "MXC Almost Live," it was a competition between the Geeks (with team captain guest star Tony Hawk) and the Greeks (team captain Tara Dakides). The episode was the season premier and is left off this set.

Secondly, there are 27 episodes in season three (including "MXC Almost Live"), but there are only 13 here - roughly half. And though they are presented in airdate order, the order here skips over a few episodes from September. Not sure why, but I can assume those episode will be present on Volume Four; I hope the same is true for "MXC Almost Live," but something tells me it will be completely "eliminated."

Episodes in this set are: "Republicans vs. Democrats vs. Third Party," "Unemployed vs. Environmentalists," "Snack Food Industry vs. Print Media," "Baby Products Industry vs. Paranormal," "Adventurers & Explorers vs. Dental Industry," "Country Kids vs. City Kids," "Organized Crime vs. Weight Loss Industry," "Novelty/ Gift Industry vs. The Death Industry," "The Amusement Park Industry vs. The World's Oldest Profession," "Oil Industry vs. Make-Over Industry," "Film Industry vs. Phobias," "Romance Industry vs. Firearm Industry" and "Footwear Industry vs. Electronic Gaming."

Thankfully, NO episodes are edited in this set, but the skipping over and season premier omittance is puzzling.

For some reason, the digipak slides out of the slipcase from the left side, instead of the standard right. Odd.

The special features for Volume Three are reduced just like the set. Basically, you get two more original Takeshi's Castle episodes (#s 1 & 67) and the throwaway "Kenny Blankenship's Top 25 Most Painful Eliminations of Volume Three." No commentaries, no behind-the-scenes, not much at all.

So you are buying this one mostly just for the random collection of season three episodes. Still worthy of purchase for sure -- but try to score it for as cheap as possible...

Should be titled as Volume 3, not Season 3. Some people like me were wondering if this was the entire third season, 27 episodes, or just half, 13 episodes like all the other releases. This is a 13 episode set and is not the entire third season. The rest of the season i hope is put onto Volume 4.

Besides that, here you get a great amount of MXC, and plenty of funny episodes that are worth watching over and over again with your friends. Definately worth it!!!!

WARNING: You do not get all of season three. Season three consisted of 27 episodes. Here you only get 13 episodes.

with the 3rd Season of MXC.

The laugh still keep right on coming with the over the top voice overs, weird constestant names and the always fun and entertaining challenges that they try to complete. 13 episodes are included in this seasons along with an extra of the first episode and the top 25 eliminations through the season as well.

If your looking for entertaining, energetic and mindless fun for all to watch then Most Extreme Elmination Challenge is for you and everyone else.

Looking forward to the next season without a doubt...keep it up!!

Absolutely hilarious show. The voice-overs add to the slapstick nature of the show. Perfect for the person with that zany sense of humor!

This DVD was great! I laughed so hard. I hope season 4 comes out soon.
I didn't have to wait long for the DVD to arrive.

Apparently these writers of MXC(voiceovers) were dropped on their heads as babies...did alot of drugs over the years.... or both! If you are alittle warped like myself, you will enjoy this off the wall humor.

A true work of ridiculous art. MXCs translations will have you saying "What did they just say?". Listen closly for Kenny Blankenship and Vic Romano's words of wisdom, for your questions to the meaning of life will soon be answered. Naughty nuns VERSUS the meat packing industry....GET IT ON!

If you used to watch MXC on Spike, I highly recommend these DVD's. If you have never seen MXC, I highly recommend these DVD. Some of the funniest stuff I have ever seen.

Thank you to all the people who put MXC together. You have given me hours of great entertainment. The quick thinking names and commentary are TOP NOTCH. It is worth every dollar Amazon.com is asking for.
