Summary: Why Only 12 Episodes and NO Theme Song???
Review: As many on Amazon, I've had this pre-ordered since I heard about it. And while it will be nice to have some Providence episodes on DVD, why only 12?! And the fact I've just read that "In My Life" WILL NOT be featured on the opening segment of any of the episodes credits is really ridiculous. I'm giving the set an advanced 3 stars for at least making some episodes available and for some interesting extras. Makes me wonder, though, if any other popular songs featured on the sountrack of the episodes may not be provided, as well....

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Disappointed...
Review: BUT NOT WITH THE SHOW. It is such a shame that a "Best of" collection was released and not the whole series. With all the garbage shows that are being sold on DVD's lately, you would think that maybe, just maybe, someone would recognize QUALITY.

It really breaks my heart, especially since I lived in Providence during the time it was being filmed and airing. Everytime I see it, it feels like I am going back...I just wish I could go back more :(

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fantastic Family Drama
Review: How many of us have quirkly families and events that happen out of the blue? All of us! This is a great family drama based in a wonderful place to live and have a family-obviously Providence! Its near to my heart (I was born and raised there) but its a fantastic way to spend an afternoon with family, friends or just a cup of tea.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: it's all about the heart
Review: I can't wait to get this DVD!! I've seen the entire sitcom through cable TV, and simply love it, you get into a point that you feel that the entire cast is part of your family. The actors are so sweet! Sadly, Providence is no longer on air, but with the release of this DVD I can keep a copy of those wonderful times watching a great sitcom

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Yay for Providence!
Review: I just bought the DVD and I love it. I have been watching the show for years and will wear out all of these DVD's. I definetely recommend this collection!

Review: I just bought the DVD and I love it. I have been watching the show for years and will wear out all of these DVD's. I definetely recommend this collection! Also for those of you who said that you only got 2 episodes on the first disk, I thought the same thing. You have to arrow over by the main menu button. I was very frustrated until I finally figured it out. ;)

Summary: Great Show!
Review: I loved this show when it was on the air. Every Friday I had to catch the show - either I'd go home & watch it or tape the show. It was funny & serious. I loved the Barkery - such a cute store that Joanie had. Hopefully a lot of people will buy this DVD & they will release the remainder of the shows. Side note: it's on ABC-Channel 7 at 2:30 or 3 a.m. Mon (check local TV guide). I was taping it for a while, then noticed it was airing on Lifetime at 8 p.m. EST.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Hansen Family's Life: Not Always Smooth, But Never Dull
Review: I ordered this DVD a week ago and received it today- one day after the DVD was released. Can you imagine how happy I was!!! First of all, the DVD box got me excited....It featured beautiful pictures (some of which I have never seen before) Each disc features a picture of the cast. The DVD comes with a small booklet with a letter from John Masius, the creator of the show. The letter was very touching, and you get a lump in your throat when you read it. The booklet also describes each episode.

For those of you who are disapointed that the Theme song wasn't featured before each episode, I recommend that you buy the Providence soundtrack: It features 2 versions of "In My Life" and if you recall, the last episode of Season 5 of Providence titled "The Eleventh Hour", featured "In My Life" by Chantal Kreviazuk at the end of the episode.

Kudos to Lion's Gate Entertainment and all the other people involved in making the Providence DVD dream become a reality.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Please- can we have the full series??
Review: I received this DVD a day early, on my birthday. What a nice present!! I absolutely love it, and sincerely hope NBC will see their way clear to release the whole series. Now Lifetime is down to one night a week, and I am assuming that eventually it will be off the air altogether. Hopefully I have taped enough episodes to tide me over for awhile, but it sure is nice not having to fastforward through all the commercials.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Very Disappointing
Review: I was a fan of this show, however, missed many episodes due to conflicting schedules. I got this DVD collection thinking that I would get to see the shows I missed. Only when I started watching them did I realize that not every episode is in this collection. Who would have thought that they would randomly pick episodes from all seasons and put them all together? If I had known that this was not a full season, I never would have purchased it.
