All three Seasons. I watched every seasons entire disk set, all the extras and episodes with commentaries a second time in one sitting. This show is that good! The gag reels are hysterical and the featurettes will make you pee on yourself so wear protective clothing. As for the show, FOX killed this amazing show. No advertising, bouncing the time slot, cutting the seasons short, airing them opposite other networks powerhouses -including Monday Night Football- then claiming the ratings were poor. Well, duh. I dont have to be a network exec to see that one coming. I was going to buy Showtime just to watch this show, and then Mr. H killed that citing it would be too hard to write, produce and keep up the quality on a new network. Shame on FOX, MR. H and the blithering idiots with Neilson boxes in this country. This show was a breath of fresh air among cookie-cutter sitcoms, mind numbing reality shows and overdone lawmedicalforensics shows. How many Law Order and CSI spin-offs or clones are they going to make? I hated the originals! Reality shows lower your IQ by two points with each episode, and very few sitcoms are truly funny or original anymore. This was one of the few. The writing, direction, production, acting, and every aspect down to the music and camerawork were all top notch. This show was destined to be another Cheers, a show that had poor ratings during its first seasons then went on to become one of the longest running hits of all times. It makes me want to cry that such a truly genius show wont continue. I pray DVD sales will force FOX or Mr. H to reconsider, and if there is a God, he will bring this show back from the dead.
