The Office: The Complete Series - Boxed Set - American Version - DVD

If you’re a fan of The Office, this Complete Series DVD set is an absolute must-have! It includes all nine seasons, packed with hilarious episodes, iconic moments, and unforgettable characters.The DVD quality is excellent, with crisp visuals and clear audio. Plus, the bonus features, including deleted scenes, gag reels, and behind-the-scenes footage, make it totally worth it. Unlike streaming, you own the series forever, with no worries about it disappearing from platforms.

Everyone knows how great this series was and still is. All episodes for a great price. DVDs provide great TV when things go awry. Also, this comedy series marks a great time in history. No canned laughter. A very very smart comedy with great actors.

The Office was, especially during the Steve Carell years, one of the best sitcoms to ever air. Chances are most people looking to get this already know what the series is like so I will not spend a ton of time reviewing the show itself. In a nutshell, it is a sitcom that follows the day-to-day operations of the Scranton PA office of the Dunder-Mifflin paper company headed by Michael Scott (Carell), the manager of the Scranton branch. It is a Mockumentary in which the various characters are "interviewed" although we never see an interviewer, so they are essentially just talking to a camera. It is a very character-driven show and the plots were a mix of self-contained stories and then arcs, usually dealing with various character relationships. It ran for nine seasons (although season one was very short, just six episodes) and was adapted from a British show of the same name that starred Ricky Gervais and Martin Freeman. The first season mirrors the BBC version sometimes slightly and sometimes a lot, and then after that really becomes its own thing.This DVD set is just the individual season sets packaged together. So, if you purchased the seasons separately you are not getting anything different aside from a box to hold all the individual season cases. All of the extras (and there are a lot of them) are exactly the same, and nothing (at least in the DVD version) was added. I cannot say what they did with the Blu-Ray complete series set, although from what I have read it has the same extras as the DVD set. The extras include audio commentaries on many of the episodes which rotate various members of the cast. There are many commentary tracks in the early seasons and fewer as the seasons go on. Then there are a ton of deleted scenes (the best of which involve Creed and "Schrute Bucks", blooper reels, webisodes, promo material, and more. Basically, if you love watching bonus content, there are hours worth (apart from the commentary tracks) to keep you busy.Overall, the series is very good. Like many shows that last nine seasons, it was not as good at the end as it was in the beginning, especially after Steve Carell left. It had a large ensemble cast that included Rainn Wilson, Jenna Fischer, Mindy Kaling, John Krasinski (who, other than Carell, has probably had the biggest post-office career), and Craig Robinson. There are also a ton of very recognizable comedy actors and actresses that appeared in the series in both large and small roles. The show definitely lives up to the hype, and even though the last couple of seasons are not as good as the early seasons, they are not as bad as some people make them out to be. So, if you are a fan of the show, this is a great pickup.

It's the OFFICE! GREAT SHOW! However, the discs are left to be questioned.Discs are not scratched.However discs skip terribly.The Office discs that skipSeason 1 disc 1Season 2 disc 1Season 3 disc 1 Skips terribly bad, missed the last 10 minutes in total from one episode.Missed the first 10 minutes from another episode right in the beginning.Season 3 Disc 3 just started playing without giving me the option of the main menu. Skips horribly and the picture is completely unseeable and the audio in inaudible. At first it wouldn’t play at all. Has A LOT of static. Disc is clean and there is nothing wrong with it using the naked eye. Disc takes super long to do a SIMPLE task, like rewind, fast forward, or god forbid you have to go back to the main menu. It just completely freezes and stops working all together and stays on the frozen screen. Disc is unresponsive for a few minutes and is VERY LOUD in my dvd player.After a couple tries, the disc finally behaved and started playing the intro like it was supposed to from the very beginning. But the disc itself is still kind of loud in my DVD player.Season 5 Disc 4 skips starting at the second episode, disc got noisy as well.Season 7 Disc 2 skips up until the christening.Season 7 Disc 4 skips multiple times through “the Search” episode, misses key parts of the episode, at least 10 minutes.Season 7 Disc 5 doesn’t skip but plays the same episode twice, every episode due to the “extended directors cut”. Time waster. Not a fan of the directors cut that plays directly after the original episode in “play all” mode.Season 8 Disc 3 skips first episodeSeason 8 Disc 4 Skips for the first FULL 5 minutes of the FIRST episode.Season 8 Disc 4 Skips in the second episode as well for 5 minutes when Andy is in Florida bringing Erin back.Season 8 Disc 4, the 3rd episode literally just got stuck playing. Right at the beginning. I feel like I missed half the episode because it got stuck before it finally started playing. The entire intro was skipped until Nellie was docking Andy’s pay.Season 9 Disc 1 skipsSeason 9 Disc 4 skips randomly during the last episode of the disc towards the end.Season 9 Disc 5 skips the whole intro until Angela is dressing Philip in Oscar’s apartment.Update:I’ve changed my star review based on it’s not the discs that skip. It was the fault of my dvd player.Long story short I bought a dvd player off amazon, the office dvds were the first ones to skip, initially I thought it was the dvds. Anyone would. Found out my dvd player was defective since it started skipping other dvds it had never skipped before.
