There's probably a thread somewhere around here to tell you something about it

I couldn't pass this up. In for 1.

I haven't seen any episodes since they originally aired, but with the movie and stuff and the cult status of the show I feel like I'm missing out.

Thanks, OP!

Arguably the funniest show of all time, and I'm a huge fan of shows like "Seinfeld," "Curb Your Enthusiasm," "The Office," and "The Simpsons." I picked this up last year from Amazon for $30, so I'm not too bummed about this deal. Incredible price though.

Is this just the three individual season sets or an actual box set of all 3 together?

I bought one this morning when I got an e-mail about it. Blind buy for me--I was largely influenced by the good number of folks who listed this in the "Most Watched TV on DVD" thread.

Fell in love with this show in Alaska. It was the only DVD we had in our cabin and we had to see it on a buddys laptop. Good times.

Though I wouldnt mind an eloborate set, it wont be $28 so good enough for me

Best show ever.
Like Cory, I'm a big fan of "Seinfeld", "Curb your Enthusiasm", "The Office" and "The Simpsons" (even though for "The Simpsons", I'm currently making my way through the show season by season - currently at season 9 - and the rare episodes I've seen from later seasons are not all that good), but "Arrested Development", which I've just rewatched for the third time (once on TV, twice on DVD) is just on a whole other level.
Best writing ever, best cast ever, a quantity of jokes (obvious or in) per episode that will probably never be matched,...
A gem that no comedy fan should miss.

Why must Amazon tempt me almost every single day this month?

I'm sorry, but I think I'm going to pass. It will go on sale for this price again eventually (if not for less) and I've been purchasing too much as it is.

Heh, I'd say an extra dollar for an extra year's worth of watching is well worth it. I feel bad for the folks who bought the set at Amazon's usual price of $48 which, at the time, must have seemed like a pretty good deal as the season sets generally run about $20 each.
