"Shin Chan has to be one of the funniest and most entertaining shows I've seen in years!"
And hilarity ensues.....

". . .although admittedly, *not* for everyone. But if you don't mind raw humor, sex -obsessed dim fathers, long suffering mothers, nosy eccentric neighbors or dirty-minded 5 year olds (and really, what's NOT to like??) then the quick-witted, barb-flinging cast of Shin-chan will thoroughly entertain you. The genesis of the "reversioning" of Shin-chan is explained in many places so I won't go into it here. When Shin-chan first appeared on the Cartoon Network, I didn't think it would be anything Id' watch, but one night I happened to catch it and found myself laughing out loud (much to the annoyance of my roommate) throughout the entire episode. Yes, it's that funny.
the extras are OK, I'd like to see more of the actors working (it's always fun to watch VOs being recorded and seeing the actors trying different takes), and more of the original episodes (one is included on the Season 1 disc; sadly, there are none on Season 2).
Be fore-warned though, this stuff is pretty caustic and not for those of gentle humor. But for the rest of us, it's comedy gold."
Overall win

"Just like the other sets there are an episode or two that I didn't care for, but overall very funny and worth the watch."
