Pre-release comment from the peanut gallery

"I just wanted to leave a comment saying I don't understand why they keep releasing this series like this. It's a great show, I'd love to buy it all on DVD, but having to buy it 4 episodes at a time on individual DVD's is frustrating, especially since there is no description here of where we're at in the timeline. What season is this DVD from? What part of the season? I'll have to do my own research because there's no description of it around here.
I know they must be doing it like this to appeal more to the allowance money audience, but I would like to see them continue to package entire seasons as they did with season 1. Even if it's just 4 seperate boxes with some tape around it (pretty much what that season 1 collection was...) at least that would make it easier for me as a buyer.
How hard can it be to sell me something called "X-Men Evolution: Season 2 (The Whole Thing)"?
So anyway, great show, season 1 extras on the DVD were awesome, but I could really go for some season-at-a-time packaging.

X-Men Evolution Season by season box sets

"I had it! Why can't the whole season box set be released? I believe that there are millions of fans out there who were having the same thought as I do. It really sucks to have the release of the episodes bit by bit..."
A new twist on a great classic.

"This is a great series on an old classic. Great for the young and old fans of the X-men. Mystique is given a new and suprisingly cunning spin matching the comic series. Fans are sure to enjoy this new fresh look and vision. Mystique, Magneto, the sentinel, and many others are brought to life with great skill and depth. I can rattle on...If your an old fan, this is a series that desires a rent at the least. Well worth having in the collection."
Where is season 3?

"This is the 4th volume for season 2. This is by far the best of the DVDs for the X-Men evolution series. I loved them all, but this was the best. There were some very creative plot twists and things start to get a bit more intense. I loved what they did with Wanda, The Scarlet Witch. If you are an X-Men fan, you won't be disappointed."
