The first season of South Park will always be, by far, my favorite. If anyone is wanting to watch it, this would be where to start off. Although, I do have one complaint. And it's not towards the DVD itself, it's towards the price here on Amazon. It doesn't need to be this high. I just bought this first season (same case) for $25 at HMV for my friend's birthday. If you want to get this DVD, order it from sam's club in Belleville, or from HMV.

This is the best adult cartoon that has ever been invented. I remember when I was a child I had to sneak behind my father's back if I wanted to watch this show. This show pushes the envelope like no other show has ever done before. The best part is that southpark is still strong.

I am looking forward to this DVD as well. On the southpark website they said that the company thats making the DVDs wouldn't let them put commentary on it becuase there was too much vulgar language. THey also said that after you buy the dvd you can send in a proof of purchase and they will send you the commentary on a seperate Cd for free. Its better than nothing I guess. Although, it might be easier to just play the commentary CD with the episodes you already bought.

Warner Bros. are finally releasing South Park's first season on DVD. **ALL** of the episodes from season one are on here, and it has some really good ones. I can't wait until it comes out because I will definitely buy it. If you're not sure which episodes are on the First Season, or forgot what they're about, here they are:

1. Cartman Gets An Anal Probe - 13-Aug-1997

12. Mecha-Streisand - 18-Feb-1998

13. Cartman's Mom is a Dirty Slut - 25-Feb-1998

This is going to be great! With such episodes as 'Cartman Gets An Anal Probe' and 'Mr. Hankey The Christmas Poo', you would be crazy not to get it.

My review of one star in no way reflects the quality of these great south park episodes. This is a review to reflect the dissapointment in warner brothers i have for not including the commentaries on these dvd's. This is an adult show, and from what i hear, trey and matt made adult commentaries. what am i supposed to do with the cd's? Press play on my dvd and cd player at the same time and hope that they are in unison. hey warner brothers! there is a reason south park is aired at 10p.m. eastern. You know why that is? BECAUSE IT'S NOT FOR KIDS

Item was delivered in a timely manner, and without any damage, exactly as described. I was very pleased with the promptness and quality.

This show is something I'm just currently getting into in 2011. Back when it first came out I found little interest in it but I'm happy that somehow 14 seasons later its made me care about it.

This season does not have the best of episodes but there are still some humorous ones found within. The bonus content is a bit lacking but still appreciated nonetheless (especially since it seems every season after the first and second has next to nothing included).

The artwork for the case is great and the discs are held firmly in place so no risk of damage in this 3-disc (12 episode) set.

This set does contain a lot of classic episodes that many people know the phrases to so its still worth a watch albeit dated at the same time.

The sound is a slight issue as it seems to fade in and out at times (volume wise). Another problem is that at times it appears as if they were filming in a bathroom or a cave as there is a slight echo in the voices which then goes away as quickly as it came.

Anyways a great show but I'm hoping for many more laughs in the coming seasons!

Over the past year I have become a new convert to South Park and love the irreverence of the writing. Having seen a collection of episodes from a variety of seasons, you can see that this was the first and thus developmental season. At times the humor is rather childish (Mr. Hankey the Christmas Poo is the low point of the season - but show me a Christmas special that isn't). Like I say there are some really good episodes on this set but offset against some very weak ones. Worth getting to really appreciate the later more mature series.

The foundation of south park is probably the weakest season but it had to start somewhere and they were of to a good start.The first season basicly introduced us to south park and the hit it would become.

With episodes like `cartman gets an anal probe` and `mecha-streisand`the first season is great,even if it would get a lot better the next few seasons but is still great to watch.It also is an awesome place to start for new south park fan.

I consider these episodes classic and i dont think that people shoul say`this show is rude,offensing,or whatever`because thats exactly why south park is fun to watch.It actually took animated cartoon to a level not reach before,sure the simpsons are funny but south park goes to the extreme.I dare anyone to say this show is for kids,and also we are well aware that its entertaiment.
