I purchased this as a gift for my partner, and we've been watching all the episodes. The boxed set is great, and the bonus features are cool, too. Buying the boxed set through amazon.ca was far less expensive than trying to get the individual sets through the US version of Amazon, which doesn't carry the "Full Tank" set.

I LOVE Corner Gas! I like the special "Gas Tank" box it comes in. The price was right, especially compared to buying the season separately. My only gripe is the quality of the DVDs themselves. Several of the discs skipped, brand new, right out of the case. Unfortunately, I bought this in Canada from America, and I don't want to pay international shipping just to correct this. When I have the urge to watch those episodes, I'll stream them from YouTube.

I must admit, most Canadian Television shows are a little cheesy, with poorer production value, and somewhat inferior acting standards. But Corner Gas is a HUGE Exception! This show is unique, addictive, and highly entertaining and hilarious! The clever way in which stories intertwine and are written remind me a little of Seinfeld's early days - when the show was new and fresh. The characters are lovable, quirky and unbelievably memorable - they get under your skin! The writing skills and acting is superb and I'm not sure Brent will ever be able to create a show as magical and endearing as this one! Kudos to Canada for one of the best comedies of all time! And thank you to Saskatchewan (Rouleau in particular) for the great scenery!!! (The show makes it seem like Canada is in endless summer - I WISH!!)

This comedy series is absolutely brilliant in its content and humour. When it was originally broadcast, I watched most of the episodes and never stopped laughing. As opposed to most sitcoms on the air today, there is no laugh-track so the only inducement to chiuckle is the material itself. Set in a small town in Saskatchewan, Canada, the wonderful characters come alive with snappy dialogue, priceless expressions and just plain, good, old-fashioned neighbourliness. Occasionally, cameos of celebrity Canadians appear for an instant which is exciting and refreshing. This is a good family show but I don't think kids would appreciate some of the humour, which tends to be innuendo. I really glad I purchased the box set...it's a classic.

What's left to say about Corner Gas? There's a reason it lasted so many seasons. It had Canadian sensibility and subtle comedy, but it also had a broad appeal to not seem "Canadian" and thus allow it to make a run stateside, where it earned many followers. This box set is the best way to keep the show alive in your home forever.

I couldn't resist buying this series. As a Canadian living in small-town Saskatchewan we can relate to the humor in every episode. A great Canadian comedy!

This is the best TV sitcom ever made!!!!! It has good clean humour that my whole family can enjoy. Would seriously recommend it for anyone that wants a very humourous "family" show to watch.

Always really liked the series. Great Canadian folklore humour with Brett Butt and well chosen cast. It easily could have carried on for a couple more years and was far superior to the subsequent series. It's great to have Full Tank as a complete collection and to be able to watch it chronologically at your own leisure.

I'm so glad I bought the series, never get enough of Corner Gas. There were episodes that I'd never seen so it was a real thrill to finally have the experience. Well worth the price.

For Corner Gas fans, the full set is great. It was a wonderfull price compared to buying it season by season
