DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES 1-8

This truly is a great bargain!! The DVDs are definitely worth the money, I was not disappointed by them. Unfortunately the description of the product is not the best. So I will just list what you will get: - a complete collection of season 1-8 - all of the DVD boxes have a different design (I added some pictures to show you what I am talking about) - all of the DVDs are grey; one DVD has a picture on it (also added a picture of that) Season 1: Languages - English; Subtitles - English, English for the hearing impaired; Norwegian Season 2 (The Extra Juicy Edition): Languages - English; Subtitles - English, English for the hearing impaired Season 3 (The Dirty Laundry Edition): Languages - English, Italian, Spanish; Subtitles - English, English for the hearing impaired, Italian, Spanish, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Finnish, Icelandic, Dutch Season 4 (Sizzling Secrets Edition): Languages - English, Italian, Spanish; Subtitles - English, English for the hearing impaired, Italian, Spanish, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Finnish, Icelandic, Portuguese, Dutch Season 5 (The Red Hot Edition): Languages - English, Italian, Spanish; Subtitels - English, English for the hearing impaired, Italian, Spanish, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Finnish, Icelandic, Portuguese, Dutch Season 6 (The All Mighty Edition): Languages - English, Italian, Spanish; Subtitles - English, English for the hearing impaired, Italian, Spanish, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Finnish, Icelandic, Portuguese, Dutch Season 7 (Wild, WIld Wisteria Edition): Langauges - English, Italian, Spanish; Subtitles - English, English for the hearing impaired, Italian, Spanish, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Finnish, Icelandic, Portuguese, Dutch Season 8: Languages - English, French, Spanish; Subtitles - English, English for the hearng impaired, French, Spanish, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Finnish, Icelandic, Portuguese, Dutch For me this is the perfect box set. I actually quite like the fact, that the DVDs have different designs, because they look really pretty even outside the box. I also do not have a problem with the fact, that one DVD has a picture on it, while the others are grey. If you are picky about the design etc. you should probably get another version (which costs at least twice as much as this one). But for this money you can't beat it!

SPIOLERS _ desperate Housewives is a modern classic. it is also an unusual series in that it's weakest part is in the middle with a powerhouse start and finish. Men and women enjoyed this series equally and the variety of characters made it a dangerous street to live on. Guest stars may have pumped the ratings but Bree, Susan Lynette and Gabrielle were the stars of the show. I liked and disliked all the women at some stage but my dislike of Susan Delfino never lifted. Her dependency, whining and all-round neediness left me hoping it was her that the producers would kill when news came of a 'wife' being killed off. unfortunately it was Edie who despite being a horrible character had depth and independence and a blossoming friendship. Lynette was a strong wife who excelled with husband Tom. They needed to split but balance was restored on their renewed marriage. Gabrielle who ties for my favourite female character, and her stormy marriage to Carlos was a highlight. Her sacrifice after he was hurt showed what a good actress Eva is.. I could have done without her children though - terrible actresses. Finally Bree, possibly my favourite wife depending on the episode. Her man marriages and addictions made her the most rounded character who despite failing many times gets her happy ending. a great series with some lulls - if you didn't catch it first time round do yourself a favour & see it now

An old friend told me to watch this show.I was reluctant as I was a Sex And The City fan and thought nothing could compare.I took season 1 away with me to Japan and watched all 24 episodes in one go absolutely hooked. It has to best the best show ever screened on tv in my opinion. People say seasons 1 and 2 were the best but all seasons were just compelling and fantastic.I hate the negative remarks that the show lost its way,for me Desperate Housewives will always play a big part in my life and I was devastated when the show ended cause you really get to know the lives of these 4 special women and you relate to them,you grow old with them. I am now watching the show again from the start and in doing so you see bits you may have missed first time round. You just have to get this box set. As my friend told me last week when I bought it for her birthday,when we are old and have lost our memory we can watch the show again and it will be like the first time seeing it!!!!! ENJOY

I cannot recommend this box set enough- it is THE best series in the world!!! There isn't a single second of boredom in the whole series. I just love, love, love Desperate Housewives. I was so sad to reach the end. I just wish I could eliminate the memory from my brain and watch it all over again immediately! But, I'll wait a couple of years and just watch it again anyway... Previous to buying this boxset, I already owned the first three series (which I had watched a few times). It was beyond brilliant to finally get to watch them ALL! And, at just £42.74 TOT (that's inc P&P), it was an absolute bargain. Just hours and hours of endless Desperate Housewives bliss!!! It took me just under two months to watch the lot. God, I love this show. I want to marry it. Sigh.

Loved this show from the start! and had all dvd sets seperatly over the years but really wanted the full collection seen this Fab price and ordered straight away. Paid £1.50 for 1st class delivery and it arrived next day which was great for the price. However a perfectionist like myself i am slightly annoyed that all the discs dont match. Disc 6 in series 2 has a colour image on the disc whereas every other disc in set has no graphics and is grey? :S very puzzling when your buying it new and expect it to be perfect. That was the only downfall for me. But for the price and speedy delivery for £1.50 extra you cant complain really !!

This is easily one of the greatest Boxsets I have ever had the pleasure of watching. Each episode is so well written and produced, that you just seem to lose track of time, as you can’t wait to dive into the next episode as soon as one ends – which is what you end up doing more often than not! There are 8 seasons in total with aprox 23 episodes in each. All 8 seasons are fantastic, with the first, in particular, being amazing. I don’t want to give too much away so will just end by saying go buy this now and try not to watch all 8 seasons at once!

Well what can I say......................I love this series I never got to watch a lot of it when it was aired on TV so I was happy when I received it and finally got to watch all the episodes I loved and all the ones that I had missed. I love the cast and the extra bonus material on these DVD's. I would recommend this to any US soap fan from my experience I have known both men and women to be taken by this series. Though I do find it strange at times how the characters on screen personality alters drastically thorough out the series, which is however more to do with the director of the series. Overall.....thoroughly enjoyed it. And will continue to do so, through out the coming years..!!!!!

I am missing series 5 and 4 very poor dvd pic I'm annoyed that half episodes are missing now I can't watch it poor and freezes to I'm calling Amazon sort issue out

Heel veel dvd’s die niet werken.

Für alle Desperate Housewives Fans ist diese Box einfach nur ein Traum ! Ich bin nun bei der 2.Staffel und konnte noch überhaupt keine Mängel feststellen können. Auch die Box an sich macht optisch einfach was her. Die Box ist einfach super schöne kleine Details wie z.B. das auf der Rückseite jeder Staffel der Apfel immer etwas mehr aufgegessen ist. Sehr gut gefallen mir auch die Extras die wirklich auf JEDER CD sind. Besonders hat mir BIS JETZT "Oprah zieht in die Wisteria Lane" gefallen, hab mich schlapp gelacht :D Ich bin total verliebt in die Box und wer sie kauft macht auf jeden Fall nichts falsch !

Au vu de certains commentaires, coffret de mauvaise qualité, Dvd pas en français, etc... J'ai longtemps hésité, mais tellement Fan de cette série, j'ai fini par commander. Vraiment satisfaite, très beau coffret, les Dvd ne sont pas abîmés, les saisons sont proposées dans différentes langues. Un vrai plaisir de partager la vie des DESESPERATE HOUSEWIVES, j'adore cette série!!! La vie de tous les jours, les voisins, les amours, les enfants, des crimes, et des rebondissements inattendus. On s'attache aux personnages, on passe vraiment un bon moment de détente.

Si eres seguidor de esta fantástica serie y quieres conseguirla compra este pack de UK. Todas las temporadas, excepto la 1ª, tienen audio y subtítulos en español (de hecho, son los mismos discos que se incluían en la edición española, muchísimo más cara y ya descatalogada). La 2ª temporada tanto en la caja contenedora como en la propia carátula de plástico no tiene acreditados más idiomas además del inglés, pero viene en español (comprobado). Y la 1ª sólo en inglés (y en noruego, a quien le interese...). Como ya han dicho en otros comentarios, lo mejor es completar el pack con la edición italiana de la 1ª temporada, con audio y subtítulos en español, tambíén más barata que la española. Así tendrás la serie completa con audio y subtítulos en español, nueva y a un precio más que razonable.

mir diese Box zuzulegen . Nach den ganzen teils negativen Rezensionen zu dieser Box, dass sich die DVDs nicht abspielen lassen, dachte ich mir, ich kann es ja auf einen Versuch ankommen lassen. Sollten die Discs nicht funktionieren, schicke ich sie wieder zurück . Nach einer schnellen Lieferung war die Box da, & ich muss sagen, mir gefällt die Aufmachung wirklich supergut. Sehr stabiler Karton in Holzoptik. Meine Box war in einwandfreiem Zustand, keine eingedrückten Ecken & Kanten. Dann kam für mich das Wichtigste überhaupt: Laufen die Discs ? Ich schaue immer auf meiner PS3 & legte somit mit gemischten Gefühlen die erste DVD in den Player. Die DVD lief an, am Anfang, als sie anlief , gab es ein lautes Rauschen & ich dachte nur :Toll! Geht also zurück. Aber sobald sie angelaufen war, gab es kein Rauschen mehr, & die Disc lief einwandfrei! Habe dann alle DVDs mal kurz abgespielt. Immer nur das kurze Rauschen & danach problemloses Abspielen. Habe jetzt die Box fast durch, (bin bei der letzten Staffel), & kann von mir nur sagen, das ich keinerlei Probleme mit den DVDs hatte. Bei 1-2 DVDs war das Rauschen mal ein bisschen lauter, bewegte sich aber in dem Rahmen, dass man es nicht als störend empfinden würde . Ich kann nur sagen, das ich froh bin, es riskiert zu haben, mir diese Box zu bestellen & kann allen Unentschlossenen nur raten, die damit hadern :bestellen oder nicht bestellen? Probiert es aus!
