Summary: Under-rated show finally gets respect
Review: Once "The Shield" became popular, the cable channel FX decided it was too good to air Son of the Beach and cancelled the show. I thought this was a shame...I always thought the show was clever and under-rated, and always fun to watch. Now the show has made it to DVD.
This 3-disc set contains the first 21 episodes from seasons 1 and 2 of the show. The episodes are all hilarious...if you like one, you'll like them all.
There's also some nice extras...there's a funny outtakes reel, and behind the scenes stuff. If you like women wearing next to nothing, there's several new "montages" (Montages being the moments on the show where the characters stop and say "now what would THAT be like?") The best extras are the commentaries on several episodes by Tim Stack, the producers, and assorted cast members. It's clear they had a fun time making the show, and it's interesting to hear them talk about it. I highly recommend this boxset, and I hope they release the rest of seasons 2 and 3.

Summary: May, in fact, be the worst show ever produced.
Review: Once you've said that, there really isn't much more to say. Though I'm not sure what one would expect from a show that sprung from the creative mind (preceding term used very loosely) of Howard Stern. If you're a huge Tim Stack fan, wait for somebody to release "Night Stand" on DVD (or don't, because you'll be waiting forever). One might make the comment that "Son of the Beach" was intentionally terrible, but does that make it any less offensive to your intelligence or bereft of humour? I'm going to say "no." Feel free to disagree.

Summary: BUY IT!.....awesome tv series
Review: Son of the beach in my mind is the funniest tv comdey series made. It is about time they are putting it on dvd. I still can't beleive married with children still isn't out on series by series instead of this best of stuff. Oh well. Anyways you would be wise to buy this set. "Queefer Madness" alone is worth the price of this set.If you are looking for a down right outrageous comedy television series, Son of the Beach is right for you. Trust me, there is now way not to laugh at this show. Go ahead and buy it.

Summary: IN THE TRADITION OF GET SMART AND SLEDGE HAMMER
Review: SON OF THE BEACH is a likable, lowbrow parody of BAYWATCH that sometimes is very clever and very funny. Other times it is just crude...which is no surprise since Howard Stern has his name on it. It often misses more than it hits, but its worth waiting for the hits. The star TIM STACK had his own show called NIGHTSTAND that should be put out on DVD too. SON OF THE BEACH is a welcome alternitive to today's bland and safe sitcoms. I was sorry that Comedy Central took it off. While the show is not in the same league as the all time spoof classic GET SMART or the later series that came closest to that same kind of genius SLEDGE HAMMER -- it is still worth checking out.

Summary: dumb silly fun
Review: son of the beach is puerile juvenile fun. sometimes you hate yourself for laughing and sometime you dont laugh but the show has a nice cast and can really hit the bullseye when you dont expect it. its kinda like a dirtier version of get smart and sledge hammer and i was sorry to see it get taken off so its good to have the new episodes on dvd. tv is way too serious and this was a good time

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: EXTREMELY FUNNY!
Review: The first time that I saw this show, when it came out on FX, I was skeptic that it would be any good. Boy, I was wrong. The show is actually a Howard Stern show, which is better. He's a pretty funny guy. The show had lots of dirty, mature, mommies-and-daddies only stuff, but it was hilarious.
When I saw this DVD was coming out, I couldn't believe it! Finally, they are bringing another great TV show to DVD!
I went ahead and placed my order for it, and you should too.
THIS IS QUALITY PROGRAMMING!!!

Summary: funny!!!
Review: There weren't too many shows like this one on the air, most companies would be afraid to make it. It takes everything that people love about Baywatch and puts it out there, the way you want to see it.

This show was cancelled during its third season. This box set includes season one, and the first half of season two. One more box set would complete the series, but due to low sales of this set, volume two will never be released. Too bad, 'cause all the episodes that I remember seeing were on this set. I recall seeing a commercial for a Matrix parody episode, but never saw it. It would have been one of the twenty or so on box set two.

Summary: Notch Johnson Rocks!
Review: This DVD collection is a must have for anyone who has seen this show during it's rather short run on FX. Apparently this show was cancelled and replaced by The Shield, which I don't think anyone in the continental United States has seen. What a travesty. Anyway, get this DVD! You will laugh until your insides hurt. Notch, Jamaica, Chip, B.J., Kimberlee, Steve the Dog - they are all funny! I just hope that they release the rest of the episodes. I do recall one Porcelain Bidet...

Summary: Best show ever made
Review: This has got to be the most entertaining & funniest shows ever made. So sad that it was cancelled. The jokes & cast all blended together perfectly. Even watching it the second or third time, I still laugh so much. The sex jokes & montages are the best. I wish they still were making new episodes. Best DVD set, a must for all dvd collectors. Hope the 3rd season comes out on DVD soon.
