Arrested Development - The Complete Series- $27.99

Don't miss out on this! Easily one of the funniest tv shows ever created. At less than $10 a season, this is the cheapest i've ever seen this series on sale.

I had to go back and check...I bought it from Amazon.com almost 2 years ago for $28.99. I could have saved a buck by waiting.

Dammit, I just shot grandma! Why'd you tell me to pull the trigger? I knew I shouldn't have been cleaning that gun while browsing DVDtalk at the same time...

I'm surprised Fox is still selling these individually, rather than releasing a Complete Series boxset.

I think I paid $30 for just seasons 1 and 2.

I am blind buying this series, and it looks like a pretty darn safe blind buy after reading some reviews at Amazon and the IMDB.

995 total reviews at Amazon, 932 are 5 stars, 36 4 stars

IMDB rating is 9.8/10

You would think, but on the other hand maybe they'd have to price it too low considering how many people have gotten a deal like this

I already have S2 and was hoping Target would drop the price again on single sets to $9.99. They were just on sale for $12.99 each.

With such a low price I have to wonder if this series is coming to blu-ray in the future sometime?

That's because it is the best 30-minute show of all time.

It's really not that low. As stated, the single sets have occasionally been available from 9.99 to 12.99 at Target and other places. I think I paid $10 for Season One at FYE. Still, if you don't have any of the 3 seasons sets this is a good deal.

Don't forget to post how much you liked/disliked the show; chances are that you are going to enjoy this blind buy.

I still remember one of my best deals ever was AD $5 per season at BB.

One of the best $15 I have ever spent.

Easily the best show of the decade, and at a great price. If you don't already own it, now is the time. You won't be sorry.

I think if you had bought it the year before it was 29.99 (which is when I bought it!) -- and it's still sealed!!!!!

Ken, at least she didn't get run over by a reindeer while cousin Mel was playing cards at the dinner table.

The entire 2nd season can be found at hulu.com for free. The way the show uses in-jokes and callbacks it's best to start with S1E1, but if you've never seen the show and you're on the fence about buying it watching a few episodes on Hulu would give you a sense of the tone and style of the show.

Sans special features, if I recall there is quite a few enjoyable commentaries in these sets.
