Scrubs: The Complete Collection



Good set, minor drawbacks
This is not a review of the show itself, but of this particular set.

Complete series sets can be hit or miss. Usually, they include the same discs as each individual season does, packaged together in some manner. I, personally, am a fan of slim cases in a set like this. This set uses slide-in pockets. I will say the presentation of this set makes it one of the more interesting ones I own. The outer box is designed to resemble a doctor's clipboard, and comes with a JD name tag, a photo-booth style photo strip of the characters, and a strange holograph of the cast which when tilted shows an x-ray-like view (with some rather strange objects appearing within).

There's a paper wrap-around that explains what's in the set and must be removed before the box can be opened. The box flips open like one of those clipboards with a storage area below.

Inside is where the folders with the discs is found. The folder is designed to look like patient charts. The...

This is an excellent collection for any fan of the show. I myself love the show and what better way to feed your scrubs appetite than with this ultimate collection. I, however after watching the collection have realized that there are a few glitches with it. I don't know if the movie studio was rushed into releasing this collection before given enough time to properly review it. I have a feeling that is what happened.

A must have not worth every penny.
First and foremost I would like to say that I am a huge fan of the show Scrubs. My heart was broken when my ex-roommate skipped town and stole ALL of my DVDs to include seasons 1 through 8 of Scrubs.

I got an e-mail from Amazon.com announcing that they were having a sale on some shows on DVD. The season 1-9 Collectors set was among the shows named and I jumped at the chance to repopulate my DVD collection with this fantastic show. My DVD's got to me in a very timely manner (considering I am stationed in Afghanistan). I as a tad disappointed when I opened the box and found how large the case was that held all of the DVDs (I thought the case would be around the average size so it would fit nicely on my shelf at home). I was too excited to have my DVDs so I overlooked that detail. When I opened the silver case that housed a smaller book of DVDs the disappointment came back. The picture of the case looks very nice but in person it's a bit weak and could tear apart from...
