Simpsons after the first few seasons isn't that great any more.

Arrested Development is good.

[Blackjack]

What! No Hogan's Heroes?

I complain more than anyone about the current nose dive of the Simpsons

But season 6 of the simpsons is probably THE best out of all of them.

edit - I just double checked the actual episodes, it definately is the best Season period! Including my favorite 2 episodes "The PTA disbands" and "The pool"

again, we dunno that yet until later 2nite...

the "list of 15" is not avail. yet.

[convoluted]

While I'm obsessed with Simpsons, not really a deal for $48. It normally goes down to a sale price of $39, and sometimes as low as $35.

[movieking]

So how do you get the card? It doesn't seem like anything is added during the checkout phase, and I don't see anything online mentioning it.

Testify.

[felix]

Too bad none of the really popular ones (24, Survivor, Apprentice, etc).

yeah, for some reason, even up til now the website hasn't been update yet...

FS is slow today....


i STILL don't see the "list of 15" .... :|

[western_chick]

I think it might be in store only >:(

[Exhibit]

Space Above and Beyond was such an awesome series.

[Rogue_77]

Space Above and Beyond was such an awesome series.

oh yeah, got this set when it was first released. For those who plan on picking this up, be warned, it uses 5x dual sided discs and each side holds about 2 eps with exception of disc1, side A.

Oh, special features are non-existant too

[mahjongmaniac]

I think it might be in store only >:(
think u might be right...

nothing's up yet....

but usually deals advertised in flyer are avail. online... dunno why this time is an exception....


btw, i guess it's possible to buy the 2 boxsets online and then phone FS CS and ask for a $20 GC to be added to ur order (or $20 e-cert. for future purchase)...

[mahjongmaniac]

well about TIME FS...!

^ links in OP.


and btw, looks like there's 17 boxsets actually... FS seems to have added 2. :)

[convoluted]

Damn, Arrested Development season 2 appears to be removed from the catalog? Strange... Usually if it is OOS, it just says so, not removed from the store altogether?

[melli]

So if you order online you dont get 20$ off your 2 boxsets, you have to buy something else of 20$ (or more) to get a 20$ discount on that at the time of purchase or you get nothing... the in store deal is better since you can use the GC later.

actually, i tried it late last nite and if u add the 2 boxsets to cart, $20 off comes off automatically on 1 of the 2 boxsets u selected, ... so no need to "get something else" ....

Since you don't need to buy more, just have the 2 in your shopping cart, technically, it is a better deal to order online (even if u select pickup in store instead of delievery) since they deduct the $20 BEFORE TAXES are added. So you are actually getting $23 off. Whereas for the $20 gift card, that's what you save, AND it has to be a future purchase.
