Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman: The Complete Series Reviews:
Unbelievable Value 
2009-12-17 - Lucked out when I stumbled on this unbelievable value! Thanks Amazon for amazing products and amazing deals!
review of disc quality 
2009-12-17 - First of all, I give the series 5 stars. I loved it when I was a kid.It brings back great memories. My review is for the quality of the dvd's. The audio is really bad. There is a loud clicking noise periodly throughout the dvd's especially on "sweetheart dance". The sound fades in and out. The picture quality is good. The dvd's are in individual seasons in the box and holds them well. I hope this helps.
Not Very Good Quality 
2009-12-12 - I love the series itself, no question about that. But every single episode at one point during it the voices and the picture are a second or so off. Sometimes, 2 seconds off. Which can be very distracting, and disappointing.
Fast shipping, great price 
2009-12-03 - The shipping was quite fast...just a few days. The price was good and the shipping cost was only $3 even though it was an entire boxed set.
One of the best TV series EVER! 
2009-12-01 - I grew up watching this show with my family, and fell in love with the pioneer life and Byron Sully. Sully and Michaela were just an amazing romance that just isn't shown anymore. My dad loved Jane Seymore and she was a fantastic actress. Loved the stories with the children, the way our cities were developed, how lifestyles were back then, and all of the supporting cast was outstanding.
When I see the stupid reality shows nowadays, and the raunchy comedies and the gory, gross dramatic shows, I realize how precious this series was and how there probably won't be anything like it for a long time. I bought this set because I want to sit with my family and not be embarassed by what is being showed, and see a real story with interesting characters, and learn something about history.
