So my shirt did make it direct from KS to Tulsa overnight and is out for delivery today. DVDs only made it to KS last night, so they'll probably hit Tulsa tonight and sit for 2 days

Anyone else having trouble ordering? Keeps rejecting my order because my addresses dont match. And I'm pretty sure I havent moved in the last day or so.

Set arrived today. Already watched half of it and lots of extras!!
The style is very dated - definitely very 90's, but still funny.

As far as I can find, no CBS Halloween Special wtf!!?!?
The replaced music is largely unnoticeable. The only time you can even tell is when there's any reference to a specific song or band - Like the "Slash" sketch used to have GnR music (and Red Hot Chili Peppers for Flea) and now it's just generic guitar music.

the large seems the same size as the medium except you can fit two people in it. also, my box came pretty badly damaged (torn up somehow). Anyway, I didn't really care about the box or the shirt anyway. It was great to re-watch from the beginning, but the lacking original music really makes it weird at times. It depends on whether you know the original music (a la the "raised in a barn" sketch with the Madonna songs). Either way, I am happy enough.

Mine arrived very beaten up as well. I wish I could say I wasn't bothered by it, but I am. Especially since this is the first dvd set I've paid full price for in a long time.

I always check the spines of any DVD/box set/Blu-ray Disc I purchase at a retail store to be sure not to get one with this type of spine damage....of course, it doesn't help anyone who buys something online...

well, if there are enough of us, perhaps they'll send out replacement boxes (rather than requiring us to send our whole sets back).

The show is just as funny as it was when it was must-see tv for me in 1993. Even the commentary is hilarious.
This talk should be over in the main thread for it (if not merged entirely).

I'm sure they are airing The State and Stella as promotion for their new show.

As dino88 pointed out, they're showing The State and Stella because Michael and Michael Have Issues starts next week.

Yeah, I get that tie-in, but I've don't ever recall them showing The State even when Reno 911 or Stella or Viva Variety started. Or when R911: Miami hit theaters. Or The Ten.
It's great, just annoying that only after the DVDs are finally out do I finally have a chance to catch the shows on TV.

It's just as much a commercial for the dvd's themselves. THAT is why they're willing to show them now. They figure you'll watch some and say "hey, I'd like to own the whole series!"
I guarantee there will be commercials advertising the dvd's during any episode they show.
