It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia: Complete Seasons 1-5 + A Very Sunny Christmas Special
L**H
It all started here.
It's not for everyone, but it's great for the rest of us.I remember being annoyed when this would come on (when it was new), but after sitting and watching a full episode or two, the constant shouting from multiple people actually started to make sense and I just sat back and enjoyed the train wreck from then on.Love this show. I hate TV and I love this show.

Great Gift Idea
This Always Sunny set is an awesome deal - not all the dvds are widescreen and might not be in HD... but are you really watching Always Sunny to see quality filming? Probably not - it's more for the entertainment.Price:I think this would be a great gift idea - it's a steal at the $55.49 price... TONS of episodes for this price, it will give most people hours and hours of laughs.Type of show:-For those not familiar with the series this is not something you'd want to purchase for anyone who can't handle foul language and crude jokes.-Great kind of show to just have on in the background while friends are over - it's not something you have to pay attention to from beginning of an episode to end to understand - there is constant entertainment; also, while there are story lines for the show and even throughout the series, you don't have to have seen the first 2 seasons for example to understand or enjoy later episodes in series.Packaging:Each DVD is in an individual plastic case as if you purchased them separately

The hermit learns to laugh
A friend was visiting from upstate New York and brought a few seasons of this series to share with me. I do not subscribe to cable or satellite services, so was probably one of a dozen folks on the planet who was not aware of this show. After five minutes into one episode I was hooked, and had to purchase this set. For the record, I grabbed It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia: Season 6 too.Even though I am an old geezer I still have a sense of humor and this is the funniest thing to come along in my memory. The only thing worse than being an old geezer is being an old geezer on a fixed retirement income. That is where the value of buying this as a bundled set of seasons comes in.You can't beat the price (compare to the cost of purchasing the individual seasons), and you can't beat the twenty-some hours of laughs these discs contain. That is something that you cannot put a price tag on.

Demented, funny humor
This is a very demented yet hilariously funny show. If you havent' seen it before you need to watch a few episodes on FX before you buy it to be sure it doesn't offend you. It is also on other channels but is edited. Somehow FX doesn't have to edit out the profanity/slight nudity (usually some dudes butt). This is definately not a show for people under 18, although their packaging rating says 14.Now regarding the multi-pack purchased, it comes in a simulated "6 pack". Some people have commented that it is a cheap cardboard box, but that is kind of misleading. Yes the box is a waxed cardboard with pics of a 6 pack, but it is of good quality (it's not fall apart cheap). There is also extra room in the box where I have put my season 6 DVD and there is still room for season 7 when it becomes available, allowing me to save shelf space. The dvd's are all FULL SCREEN except for season 5 and the Christmas special, which are widescreen. Amazon incorrectly advertises that the whole set is widescreen. The full screen picture takes up my entire 50" screen though, without the black sidebars around the pic. It is evident in season 1 that it was a new show, as the picture quality is ever so slightly bad. That is it is not as clear and bright as what season two and later seasons are, hence my 4 star rating, otherwise it would have been 5 star. If you are using an upconverting blue ray player you probably won't notice that. I still have a pre-blue ray, pre-HD, DVD player/recorder, with an HD plasma t.v. . If you appreciate demented humor and aren't offended by profanity, sexual commentary/situations, racial observations, stereotyping, some gore (fake blood, spit, puke, etc..)by all means you need to become a "Sunny" fan and buy this set!

Great Deal For A Great Show.
This is probably the best deal you'll get for this show, at it current price, you are getting 5 seasons, plus the christmas special episode, compared to buying all separately. The box art is great, it's a six pack of beer, on the top, you can see the beer spouts and some lipstick marks, very cool indeed.If you like dry, twisted humor and are not easily offended, then this is the show for you. What I like about this show is how they have what some would call "stupid" situations, but in a way, they seem very real, and thanks to the cast doing an outstanding job at portraying life as a twisted chain of events. They never win and always come short, but in each episode, they manage to simply continue with their lives as if nothing happened. I really suck at reviewing TV show, movies, etc, so I'll stop here and just say this is a very unique show with utterly F*&$ up humor that anybody with an open mind will enjoy.

A must buy for fans who don't own any of the series
50-60 bucks for five seasons and the christmas episodes is an awesome deal. The show offers tremendous rewatchability. The case that holds the DVD cases inside is just a flimsy piece of cardboard, but no matter. Bonus material is there, though its not very fulfilling. All but season four has commentary on select episodes. As a fan I like to watch the commentary for any extra insight they may have to dish out, but there isn't much. Aside from season five episodes with dr. Drew commenting on the interesting psychological aspects of their characters with them, the commentary consists of them just watching and laughing at themselves with you and them making fun of you for sitting around watching the commentary. They may have been joking, but there's always some truth to a joke.Anyway, amazing show, and totally worth the money

Avoid!! Poor packaging
Only the christmas special and 1st season were ok. Everything else was busted up and scratched. Worst handling I've ever seen.

for rainy day in germany
Eine meine Lieblingsserien... Schwarzer Humor gepaart mit klischeehafter amerikanischer Arroganz und Patriotismus. Die Serie ist tatsächlich nur auf englisch zu genießen, da bei der Übersetzung zu viel des Wortwitzes verloren geht. Unvergleichlich, lustig, dämlich, abgedreht und schräg...

Genial Paquete
Me llego antes de lo esperado, muy bien envalado. Esta seríe es mortal la veía hace años en via digital y desde entonces la buscaba pero es imposible verla online o descargarla así que me animé a comprarla y estamos muy contentos. Muy humor loco y desenfrenado, CHarlie es TOP TOP.
