Summary
Seinfeld has got to be one of the best if not THE best sitcom to come out in the last 18 years.
The writing is second to none and the rewatchable factor is extremely high making it excellent value for money.
So why the 1 star you ask?
Well I have every season on DVD and currently awaiting the final season 9, and I'm sure that I'm not the only fan who has also invested in the 9 sets too. So why is it that this coffee table book, which sounds awesome only available if you buy this box set. Don't tell me that all loyal fans have refrained from buying any of the seasons so they can get their hands on this.
I actually wonder who would part with this amount of money if they are not fans. Only the fans would and by now they most likely like me have all the episodes already.
So why isn't the book available to us true fans without having to fork out all this dosh for something we already have.
It would have made more sense if the bonus disc and coffee table book came with Season 9 as well as the full box set. That way everyone would have been happy as there would have been three versions available, Season 9 as a stand alone, or with the bonus disc and book or the whole thing for the beginners and the rich completists.
UPDATED REVIEW:
I posted a review a few months ago when this set was initially released and I gave it one star as I was one of those who begrudged the fact that I had bought all the box sets as they came out and was miffed that to get the coffee table book and the bonus disc you had to double dip - there was no way I was going to do this.......
......until our friends at Amazon listed it as one of their Deals of the Week for £79.00. It was then I had a brainwave - if I can sell all my boxsets here on Amazon I can get this and at most it'll cost me a tenner. So that's what I did within days all but 2 of my boxsets were sold and then IT arrived.
Had I known what it was like initially I might have double dipped after all.
This set is gorgeous!!!!! The book is the best book I've ever laid my hands on and the discs are lovingly placed in a very user friendly manner unlike some boxsets I've come across.
To emphasise the point of the quality of the box set and its presentation - just think of the 'Lord of the Rings' extended editions.
In my opinion that is the ultimate box set cinema wise and I haven't yet come across another set that can touch it.
This 'Seinfeld' set is TV's 'Lord of the Rings'
The Deal of the Week offer has now finished but it's still going at a discounted price. Even if you have to do what I did and sell your individual box sets - and even if it means dishing out say another £30 take my word for it if you're a fan like me then YOU MUST GET THIS NOW!!!
Trust me it'll be worth it.
It's a pity I can't change the star rating as I would now give it a 5.
