The first 4 episodes of season 6 is nothing short of perfect.

so that's where they are.

Well, Kidney Boy was the season finale, but it was a good episode nonetheless.

I had enough extra to buy one set from amazon, so I got season 8. Why season 8? Well, for one it's a better season than 7. For another it was $10 cheaper and I could only get one of them.

First, the menus are the same as season 1-6, so nothing sticks out like a sore thumb. They play clips from the episodes in the main menu ("Dad, I accidentally used your toothbrush again." "Throw it out.") and the episode selection gives the episode description as it always has. The first disc has eight episodes and the other two have seven. They're single-sided. The interior cover lists the episodes and houses the three discs without issue.

I watched "Patch Boomhauer" (still a classic) and am pleased with the presentation. Sharp picture and sound, Olive Films did a great job on these DVDs. I'm really hoping the rest of the seasons will follow.

You're kidding me! They're bringing these out fast! I still haven't gotten season 7 yet!

Interesting that they're doing two discs for each season. I suspect this means season 11 will be released on its own and not packaged with season 12. Not that I'm complaining, but I would hope for lower prices for lower episode counts. Either way, I'll be getting them.

Season 9 and 10 covers

The cover for season 9, man. Not a fan.

LumRanmaYasha · January 28, 2015, 09:13:29 PM

Yeah. That one just looks...off.

Avaitor · January 28, 2015, 09:22:34 PM

That's what they chose for representation for S9?

Meh.

What would you have rather they chose? I don't have a problem with the season 9 cover, and I like how it references a specific episode from that season. The season 10 one by comparison is just generic.

Spark Of Spirit · February 02, 2015, 01:02:53 PM

Anything but the episode with the worst continuity errors. Personally, I would prefer a generic episode, but then season 9 is probably my least favorite season so it probably wouldn't help me much.

Speedy · February 02, 2015, 02:05:19 PM

Continuity snarl aside, I didn't mind "A Rover Runs Through It", so perhaps that's why I'm not disliking that cover.

Imagine if they went with the puking Duke for the cover!

I didn't realize that Dennis Burkley (voice of Principal Moss) died two years ago. What a shame. He was excellent on the show.

oh man, r.i.p...
