1.0 out of 5 stars Great material. Ate-up pricing and marketing, April 10, 2006

By	Steven J. Chappuis (American heartland) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Don't get me wrong, South Park is genius comedy. Sitcoms from the 50's through the 80's usually had a moral at the end of each ep. I dare you to find an episode of "The OC" or "Dawson's Creek" or "Prison Break" that has a healthy moral.
SP has an intelligently articulated moral at the end of (almost) every single episode. When my kids turn 14, they will be forced to watch all the back episodes.

In other matters:
You can pay $155.99 for the 5 season DVD set.
Or you can pay $128.89 and buy seasons 1 through 5 individually.
Somebody at Amazon hasn't been doing their homework.

Price this collection for $99.99 and you'll sell about a billion of them.

Update: It's April 12th, 2006 (2 days after I made the above review) and the prices of the South Park DVD's has changed. Seasons 1 - 5 now go for $29.99 each; $149.95 for all 5. The 5 season collection is $155.99. What do I get for my extra 6 bucks? A fancier box?
If you customer buys your product in volume, they usually get a discount, not an upcharge! Duh!

Update: It's Tuesday April 18th. The total price for seasons 1-5 purchased individually on Amazon is $118.85.
The box set is $145. It should be about $100 and I won't buy it until it is.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great Show, Buy the Seasons Separately Though, July 25, 2006

By	R. Shah (Bensalem, PA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

It ends up that the 1st 5 seasons separately purchased end up being around $20 cheaper than this bundle. This show is amazing, but you could buy the South Park Movie DVD along with the seasons and it'd still be cheaper than this bundle.
