Good DVDs - Bad Packaging

"Season 3 was one of the best of the Big Brother Series. (I also loved Season 2 with the "evil" Dr. Will). I'd forgotten alot of Season 3 - Amy & Marcellus, Chiara & Roddy, Lisa & Eric, Danielle & Jason... and good ole Gerry. The fighting, the loving, Amy leaving then returning, Marcellus and his decision with the Golden Veto, Danielle and her comments in the Diary room - I loved all of it and was saddened when I finished watching it again.The only "extras" are the audition tapes of the contestants. Interesting but I wish there were more "extras" such as comments from the House Guests or Julie Chen. Maybe the producers will add more on the next Big Brother DVD release. (Hopefully they will release more).My biggest beef is with the packaging. I received the set with several DVDs loose inside their jewel box. A friend of mine received her set with alot of scratches on the DVDs. Instead of having each DVD attached inside, two DVDs "share" the same space, one an inch or two down from the other. The "top" DVD on each side is supposed to hold down the other one but comes loose so they both rattle around. Another thing - I've noticed Amazon has raised alot of their prices and this is no exception. I bought BB3 here when it first came out and paid $49 for it but now it is selling for
$62.96. Ouch!"

"Although this was a great season of Big Brother, the DVD edition leaves much to be desired. The ONLY extra features are boring audition tapes of the houseguests to be and the DVD set is of very poor quality. There are no scene selection or language options, nor is there subtitling. The episodes themselves appear exactly as they did on TV, with language and nudity censored. No deleted scenes (these people were taped 24/7, I'm sure they could have come up with SOMETHING), NOTHING! This DVD set seemed to me like a bootleg someone burned at home. The packaging is also terrible. The set is worth having if only to relive this great season, but if you are a DVD buff and look forward to those features prominantly found in DVD box sets, you will be sorely disappointed. Absolutely nothing new of any worth to see."
One of the Better Seasons

"This was a good Big Brother season with lots of interesting characters and a lot of unexpected twists. It ranks just below Season 2 with evil doctor Wil(which strangely has not been released). Though it contains all 32 episodes, there are no extras aside from audition tapes. It would have been nice to get commentary, or updates on the people. Or they could have given uncensored bits. Still it is worlds better than the abbreviated version of Season 4. The packaging is not the best and there is a good chance the dvd's could come loose in transit. Also, the Amazon price is crazy. I got my set at Overstock for just over $20. Hopefully they release the other seasons."
Definitely one of the top seasons

"I am baffled as to why CBS has only released season 3 as a complete season set and none of the other seasons of BB before or after, but this definitely was a great season to watch. There were some very memorable characters, including one of most well-known houseguests to come out of the show, Marcellas.
So what is there that makes Season 3 worth watching? We saw one of the most successful and secretive alliances of BB history. One of the steamiest romances to ever happen in the BB house took place during season 3. There was also an annoying Dr. Will wannabe who thankfully didn't last too long. Which brings me to my biggest question to CBS - why Season 3? If you're going for historical value, Season 2 had arguably one of the best BB players ever. A man who was hated by the houseguests managed to stick around until the end, then gave one of the most offensive final speeches ever, but still managed to get enough votes to win the game!
Anyway, if we can't have season 2, then season 3 is probably the next best thing. If you missed it, it's definitely a season that every BB fan should see."
