All the early seasons are available on DVD. Just look them up on [Amazon.com](http://Amazon.com) and buy 'em! ---

Most new and classic TV shows are on DVD now, and more are coming every month. It’s couch potato heaven. ---

Or, rather, eBay, which would be much cheaper, I think. Failing that, [play.com](http://play.com) which is somewhat cheaper than Amazon for some stuff. ---

I bought one season off ebay relatively cheap. Came from China though, so the packaging was a bit suspect. Best going down the Amazon route IMO. And you’re right, wonderful series. ---

Anything coming from China is basically an automatic bootleg. Keys to watch out for: Region 0 Chinese and English subtitles Much lower price Fewer DVDs ---

Mum… How about a link? Here, I’ll post one. [Amazon.com](http://Amazon.com): [First Season](http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00005JLF3/qid=1122993887/sr=8-3/ref=pd_bbs_sbs_3/102-1235557-9705742?v=glance&s=dvd&n=507846)$40.48, free shipping. Perhaps [the first four seasons](http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0007OY2PI/qid=1122993887/sr=8-4/ref=pd_bbs_sbs_4/102-1235557-9705742?v=glance&s=dvd&n=507846) for “only” $160. That’s a savings of almost $0.40 per box. 😃 . Again., free shipping. [Half.com](http://Half.com): [First season](http://half.ebay.com/cat/buy/prod.cgi?cpid=1179236875&pr=3437321) $33- 37, plus a few bucks for shipping. Seems to me it is worth it to get it new from Amazon, since it is almost the same when you add the shipping. ---

I had good experiences ordering from [DeepDiscountDVD.com](http://DeepDiscountDVD.com), which also offers good deals and free shipping.
