Much fun timeless truth
Greetings all! I'm taking just a wee bit of your time to review this product. I watched this when it was running on network television. It was funny then & funny now. It's taken a long time to get this for purchase. I actually have tried for years. The only difference from the tv show, is the end credits where there is no theme musice playing as the episodes go off. That's all. The discs are very crisp & clear. The whole series is what I purchases because it is a classic & very funny. It's part of Eddie Murphy's better layers. Some of his raturally "raw" comedic genius. At least to me any way. This series depicts the goings ons & goings ins of the "hood" or projects as it is. Though it boasts exaggerations of circumstances surrounding minorites & fiscal handicap, it speaks high octave volumes of what happens in governmental properties intended for the indigent. The lifestyle in this environment mimics the residents as an indigenous people. The pjs shows a laughable tolerance for the less fortunate. It entertains & sheds light on the daily struggles of housing developments & the abundant neglect throughout the system. I would thoroughly recommend this product because it'll grab your attention & keep u laughing. Please don't hesitate to give it a try.

Finally!
I thought I'd never see the day when "The PJs" was released on DVD. The first two seasons are brilliantly funny -- and just politically incorrect enough that I doubt such a show would ever be green-lighted by a major network these days.I watch "The PJs" on TV One every Saturday morning, and I can only hope that the DVD versions include original music. For example: in the episode "Bougie Fever" (sp?), a five or six second sample of "The Jeffersons" theme song is changed in the syndicated version. The scene absolutely loses its hilarity, and I hope that it's unchanged on the DVD.

Finally on DVD.
Finally The PJ's is on DVD. My husband and I thought this was one of the funniest shows ever. I can remember years ago looking for this and it of course was nowhere to be found. I was so happy when I found out it was on DVD and ordered it right away. I think we laughed harder than we did when we first saw the show years ago. I have no idea why it was cancelled. I am just happy to be able to get these DVD's now.

So long I have waited, but worth it! Oh, yes!
One of the few genuinely funny shows on television, the chemistry of writers, art and voice acting pulls this off better than any other animated show on television. Lamentably it was short-lived, as many other cult classics which Fox mishandled. That network must be run by eccentrics. Watching the shows in the order on DVD, which doesn't match the order or broadcast, but that takes nothing from the episodes, which are great fun to watch. I need to pace myself or I'll be through Season 3 in no time.

Eddie Murphy's Genius on display
I loved this series while it aired on TV and have already pre-ordered it. This has got to be the funniest animated series ever; and that includes the Simpsons - in my humble opinion. Eddie Murphy is a comic genius and it really shows in this hilarious series. I have long hoped and waited for this to be released onto DVD and the wait is almost over.I really excited and looking forward to seeing this again and watching a few episodes I may have missed!

Not before time
I've lost track of the number of times I have bemoaned the absence of this series from the DVD catalogue. Eddie Murphy has a very mixed track record ranging from awful to truly outstanding. This offering falls firmly into the latter category. So, well done to whoever it was who finally decided to get this released. If your player does not play Region 1 or NTSC format then either get it unlocked or spend £[] on one that will. You will not be disappointed.

At Last!!!!!!
I watched this series on Sky One a few years ago and it is sooooooooo funny, I recorded it on VHS videotape which I actually still have. I'm so glad it is now available on DVD. This is Eddie Murphy at his comedic best(on a par with Donkey in Shrek) and Loretta Devine is priceless as Thurgood's long suffering wife. Thank you to the genius who decided to release this on DVD, you have made me very happy indeed!

Just like I remember it
It's been a long time since I've seen this show, and it's as funny as when I last saw it! People who enjoy the humor of the 90s will definitely enjoy this.

As funny as it was almost 20 years ago!
Absolutely pleased with this purchase. Good quality copies. Only very minor downside is the quality of the DVD cases - rather flimsy.
