Summary: Bring on the real deal. SEASON 1 COMPLETE
Review: This is first of all one of my favorite TV shows. I loved married with children. Why so low rating? Simple... This is a easy and quick way to make a fast buck with less work. Come on, bring on the real deal and give fans what they want with TV shows to DVD. COMPLETE SEASONS. I mean really, they release something like this, then in time we will see the full season release just so we can spend even more money on what we should have received in the first place. I love this show, but no I won't fall for this, I'll wait for the real deal. It gets 2 stars just because these are great episodes but hold out for the real deal.

Review: This set would've gotten 5 stars had it had It's A Bundyful Life featuring the late Sam Kinison & Ted McGinley playing (Norman Jablonsky, peg's husband). I hope it sells good so we might get season sets like they did with Friends. 5 Episodes including:
Episode #40. A Dump of My Own - Al plans on building his dream- an executive's type of bathroom in the garage. Episode #45. I'll See You in Court - The Bundys and Rhoades are taped having sex at a hotel. Peggy and Steve decide to sue, but only the Rhoades get money. **This episode never aired in the U.S. because FOX considered it too controversial, although it aired out of the U.S. several times. The cable channel FX has aired this episode on June 18, 2002 after years of being unaired in American syndication due to its controversial content (i.e., the hotel videotaping couples in their private moments). This UNAIRED episode was finally aired on the FX cable channel on June 18, 2002 at 8:30 central.** Episodes #101 & 102. You Better Shop Around - The Bundys move into a grocery store when Al doesn't want to pay for an air condtitioner. They cut in front of Marcy at the checkout stand and win the $1,000 shopping spree prize for beign the millionth customers. The Bundys and D'Arcys face off to see who can spend the $1,000 shopping spree first. Meanwhile, Bud and Kelly bother the beaver store mascot (Jerry Mathers as Himself). Episode #163. No Chicken, No Check - Kelly and Bud save their money to buy a car they can share. Also Bundy trival buffs know Bud's middle name "Franklin" is revealed in this episode.

Summary: Season 1 Coming soon?
Review: Well, what I think they are trying to do is copy the way South Park came out with there Volumes. Then later came out with the Season one DVD. But I think its gonna be a waste if they keep selling these volumes, then later come out with the Season one. So I recommend you wait till they come out with the Season one DVD. But if you got some extra cash, this dvd is worth the price.

Summary: Stuff it, Columbia/TriStar
Review: What the hell is "outrageous episodes vol. 1" supposed to mean? Since when are only SOME of the episodes of this magnificent show supposed to be outrageous?
This is a seriously bad treatment of a classic - to release a small subset of the real show is not only ridiculous, but an insult to its fanbase. MWC deserves to have all of its episodes (well.. the first six seasons anyway) released, instead of having the suits decide what goes on the dvd based on how much controversy the episode originally generated.
Married... With Children is a classic show that keeps getting hosed. It began with Fox treating it like any other show (not THE show that skyrocketed them to fame), followed by a series of events, not the least of which was pulling the plug on the series without even notifying the actors. Needless to say, this is the latest insult - a "greatest hits" "ensemble".
MWC was one of a kind. The original six seasons had what I can only describe as genius writers, combining hilarious observations with biting critique. Every character had philosophy that made them different and unique - like Al's constant tales about the "Red Grinch that stole Uncle Al's life", or Kelly's opinion on the usage of the word 'hussy'. Even Marcy, character I personally like the least had her charm, whether it was her El Pollo Loco disposition, or strange, borderline explosive libido.
This show deserves better. It deserves to have more than 3 items show up in the Amazon.com search (one of which is a book). Both Fox (especially Fox) and Columbia/TriStar owe it to the show's fans to release a decent, comprehensive collection, not just an insulting collection of episodes that will only satisfy the casual viewer. For fudge's sake - if something idiotic like Buffy the Vampire Slayer can have a DVD collection (and it's still running!) the show that single-handedly created the Fox network should've had it years ago. As for myself, I'm not planning on buying this - I will wait until a comprehensive collection. Even if it means watching FX til the cows come home. 5 Stars because it's the best show ever, -2 stars for the crappy treatment it keeps receiving.

Summary: What A Rip!
Review: When I first recieved word that Columbia/Tri-Star was releasing "Married...With Children" on DVD, I was overjoyed. Finally, my favourite sitcom was getting the treatment it deserved. This was until I found out about two weeks later exactly what capacity they were releasing the show in. Instead of releasing this classic series in the form of season sets, what we have here is a so-called "greatest hits" compilation containing what are apparently the "most outrageous episodes". I have no clue what they're trying to pull, but true fans of the show demand MORE. This is a joke. As an above viewer stated, you have shows like "Buffy The Vampire Slayer" which is released in full season sets. Even "The Larry Sanders Show" has a first season on DVD for god sakes. On a notorious website, there is a poll asking everyday people what series' should be made available in season sets on DVD. MYC was in the TOP 10. If anything Columbia/Tri-Star are going to lose money on this piece of garbage, because we all know that the show deserves better treatment. Furthermore, the fans of the show deserve better. They need to wake up and smell the toast.

Summary: Funny show, bad DVD
Review: Who doesn't know the Bundy family? Al, Peg, Bud and Kelly, and their faithful dog Buck, often accompanied by their neighbours Marcy and Steve (who later is followed up by Jefferson) have been around for ages, and stole the hearts of countless people, including me. However, DVD's like these are hardly worth the effort of releasing in my opinion. While they picked 5 funny episodes, they hardly are the funniest episodes ever. I cannot help but feel as if this collection was meant as a pilot project; just to see whether people would actually buy Married with Children on DVD, rather than releasing the one of the seasons, and then finding out there would be no public interest. Luckily, they realised their error by now, and released Season 1 and 2. I'd definitely recommend those over these 5 episodes.

Summary: WTH?
Review: Who makes the decisions around here? To give the die-hard fans of Maried... with Children a paltry 'collection' of the most 'outrageous' episodes is a direct insult to the intelligence and loyalty of its ENORMOUS fan base.
Everyone knows what the fans want - a complete collection of all episodes, by season, on dvd, just like tons of other shows - most of which don't even compare to MWC. So just give it to us! Don't try to make a million bucks off a cheesy 'compilation', then turn around and make yet even more money on the seasonal release years later. Just give us the DVD! The technology is there, so just do it. I'm getting this strange feeling of deja vu... *cough*georgelucas*cough*...
Ok I'm better. Married has already made the networks so much money from ratings and sindication that they should be giving away the dvd's at this point. Sorry for the heavy sarcasm, but the point remains the same. The show is/was wonderful and ground-breaking, and its time the execs stop jacking around for more $$ and starting giving the fans a little respect. I am giving 5 stars for the best sitcom ever to grace the airwaves, but I have to take away 4 stars due to the poor treatment of the MWC cast & crew, and the insulting treatment and exploitation of its loyal fans. Its all about the money.

Summary: "Damm Steve Allen...."
Review: Why oh why do they release the entire season of a piece of garbage like "Sports Night" (which Al would hate), and they only give us a few episodes of MWC???? I DONT GET IT???? This show helped build Fox...and what do we get in return????
We get a Full Season of Malcolm in the Middle,Sports Night,and freaking MAD ABOUT YOU????Whats next - The Complete "Thirty Something" Box Set?????CMON!!!! I guess its a step in the right direction - but why they refuse to recognoze this show for the groundbreaker that it was - and give it the respect its due - is beyond me. What next?A "Dr Quinn Medicine Woman" compilation?Or perhaps "Cop Rock." Gadzooks....Long live Al!!!!

Summary: WE WANT SEASON SETS!
Review: Wow, I thought it was stupid when they released 4 episode DVDs of "Get A Life" instead of the complete first season, then I scratched my head when "The Best of Baretta" was released (but thankfully along with Season 1), but this is hilariously dumb! Married with Children ran for 11 seasons, 10 years, and consists of about 262 episodes! It also was one of the most popular, influential, and long running sitcoms in TV history! Fans would jump at the release of a complete season 1 DVD box set, so much that they probably couldn't keep enough of them on the shelf! So will someone please tell me why our time is being wasted with another dreaded compilation "best of" DVD with 5 measley episodes? Who actually buys these things? Anyone with enough interest to buy this will without a doubt drool over a Season One set! Season sets are the only way to go with television shows. Several great shows have already began being released in season sets such as Baretta, Sanford & Son, All in the Family, The Jeffersons, Fawlty Towers, Mad About You, The Simpsons, The Young Ones, and coming soon - Good Times! So what happened? These shows have 12-14 episodes in their first seasons and so does Married with Children (13), making it ideal for a 2 disc set! What really blows me away is what immediately comes out in season or complete sets: shows like Angel, Once & Again, Malcom in the Middle, Buffy, etc. and I'm sorry, but come on...Sports Night? Did anyone watch Sports Night? Why would these lesser and lamer shows get first class complete treatment and a show like Married with Children gets a pointless compilation of 5 episodes, which by the way are picked from Seasons 3, 5, & 8? Sure they release Friends & Sex and the City in their entirety, but not MWC? Sorry, I can't complain enough. ATTENTION: DVD/HOME VIDEO COMPANIES - "WE DON'T LIKE "BEST OF" COLLECTIONS OF POPULAR SHOWS...PLEASE STOP MAKING THEM...SEASON SETS ARE WHAT WE WANT! IF "FELICITY" AND "MY SO CALLED LIFE" CAN BE RELEASED IN DVD SETS THEN "MARRIED WITH CHILDREN" SHOULD BE A NO BRAINER.
