Great for the price! However the box it came in was not usual DVD box. flat cardboard cut outs to seperate each indivdual DVD, not a sturdy and secure way to store so many dvds in same small container.

If you are into late 70's comedy at a civilized price, you're looking at a series you'll want to consider. This series contains all 65 episodes in one compact box. Trying to buy this type of series by the season can be intensely frustrating and costly, especially if you add in the postage for even a few seasons. This is one of the comedy series that wasn't long lasting, but lingers in the minds of those who used to run to the television set to watch it after school. Instead of catching it here and there on reruns, it's now in one space saving box.

This show is a surefire nostalgia tweak when I remember Raj, Rerun and Dwayne and their mischief-making ways. Of course there was little sister Dee, the ultimate tattletale, who always spilled the beans and the loveable Shirley, the waitress at Rob's Place, who brings a smile to my face just thinking about her . . . "What's happening?" If there is anything happening Mama Mabel is surely the one who's going to have the last word. This is a popcorn popping giggle fest series for sure!

I really enjoyed watching this show as a child when it was in syndication years ago. I am so glad I have TV shows like this on DVD to watch whenever I want to, instead of the mindless, irritating reality shows of today. Excellent quality transfer, very entertaining, highly recommended. Just buy a CD book to put the DVD's in because they will get damaged the way they are packaged with all the discs stacked directly on top of each other.

Hey, Hey, Hey, Whats Happening!!! is the way one always seems to be greeted when one walks through a door in this funfilled tv sitcom. Light(Raj),airy(Dwayne)and fun(re-Run)are three well suited words to discribe this fun packed sitcom and its cast. I thoroughly love the entire cast and the fun they always seem to have. It is hard to chose a favorite but if I had to pick, I would have to say "Dee" (Raj's little sister) and her tongue. She is the one who puts "Mouth" into "Mouthy" and "Zing" into "Zingers", she is truly a treat for all who loves sarcastic humor. It was fun to see the wholesome fun that people had from yesteryear. A life without computers, cell phones or texting did exist and they look to be having more fun then the sitcoms of "today". The packaging of this "complete series" is awesome. One box holding all 9 discs conserves space on ones self. I truly loved this "70's" sitcom that I started to collect "What's Happening Now".

I watched this back in the 70's and loved the series.It ran from August 1976 to April 1979.Dewayne,Rerun, Roger,Dee,Shirley and we can't forget MAMA. The show reflects the 70's in black culture.If you liked the Crosby show,then you will enjoy this series.SIDE NOTE: The series returned in 1985 and ran till 1988 under the title "What's Happening Now" with most of the 1970's cast in tow.Watchable,but not as good as the 70's version.

I grew up watching whats happening so I was so excited to find the entire 3 seasons. Me and my children watch the dvds over and over again for laughs every week!

I purchased these dvds, and I am very pleased with them. This was a favorite tv series that I adored when it first came out. I am considerably older now, and I like it just as much as I use to. It is hilarious and you will laugh at the antics of, Dee. She is one cute kid. I love the funny situations that Rerun and Roger and Dwayne get into. I laugh so hard it hurts, but in a good way. The quality of these videos are superb and the sound quality is also. Thanks for the memories....

This is a funny show with great memorable characters. I made this purchase not only because of the show, but the pricing was could not be beat. All three seasons for a steal. Thanks AMAZON!!!

Just happened to find whats happening dvd,I was fortunate to work as a page/usher in the mid 80s at the glendale studios where Whats happening was filmed. During the lunch break, I was fortunate to have lunch with the whole cast. Everybody in the show was so nice,especially Shirley.Those cast members were as nice in person as they were on the tv show. I hope this dvd does lots of sales.I can't wait to buy my copy.

Fabulous!!!!!! My family and I have made this a part of family night tradition. These CDs are great for the price and the lifetime of enjoyment we will receive from watcing these is unmatched. Thanks Bunches!!!
