gave it to you for free? I probably would just pick the ones to watch from that season I thought were the best and then watch the extras but i defintely wouldn;t need to watch all the eps like I usually do when a buy a TV show on DVD

Yes, if it was free I'd definitely make the most out of it. Although I've already told my family not to get it for me as a gift.

I don't intend on putting it on my priority list if the rumors are true about the show not being unedited episodes. I can go to my local carrier here WRDQ channel 27, TBS, WGN or Nick at Nite and tape the episodes in great quality form. I like to buy DVD releases because most of them are orginal run type eps.

Absolutely not. I'll sell it on EBAY with the quickness.

That is way too much for episodes that air regularly on several stations in syndication and are edited!

I think the $40 is for the extras-lol

I'm going to admit. I was 17 when TCS first premiered and I was looking forward to it. I grew up on Bill Cosby with Fat Albert, so I knew he was funny. Besides, he was one of the only comedians that could make people laugh without cussing.

...HOWEVER, after the first couple of seasons, I grew to hate it. Theo and his 'jammin on the one' was it for me. What kind of rap term is that? I was on this board last year and someone made an intersting observation. Bill and Stevie weren't on at the same time stage during that episode and I wonder why.
