The Biggest Loser: The Workout - Weight Loss Yoga

Great interactivity and instruction on poses--plus it's fun!
Great Yoga DVD, especially for those new to yoga. I've had a good handful of yoga classes and my husband's had a few. We both really benefit from Bob's instruction, particularly on form. It's one thing to say, "keep your back straight," or "make sure you watch your form," but Bob instructs as if you've never had a yoga class in your life, which is good--both for newbies and those of us who aren't experts yet. He actually shows you what good knee alignment looks like. Or tells you how it should feel. I agree with one of the reviewers that it's a little awkward (okay, a lot awkward) to be in a yoga pose and have to look up at the TV, but that's really the same as being in class--I would have to look at an instructor to see what's going on sometimes--but after a week or two of doing this, you get the hang of it and know what to do.

The BEST part of the Biggest Loser videos are the interactive menus so you can select what kind of workout you want to do. What an AWESOME...

Love It !!!!
I hesitated buying this DVD because as a yoga teacher, good routines are hard to find. This is the way I was trained back in the 1960's; holding the poses to build strength and stamina.
I am pleasantly surprised and have put it in my workout rotation. You learn yoga better when you hold the poses; if you learn from a moving flow you tend not to watch your form as
well. If your thinking of trying yoga, this would be a good place to start.

AMAZING!
I ordered this product during the pre-sale so I got it the tuesday that it was released. I'm new to yoga but I must say that this was one of the best workouts I've ever done. I read about how yoga has changed so many peoples lives and to be honest, I wasn't buying it. But, now, I'm starting to believe that maybe there is something to it. Bob is so motivating (not to mention easy on the eyes)! The moves are simple and easy to follow, but you can feel your heart racing and your muscles working with every move and stretch. Of course, I'm presently on Level I, but I'm looking forward to moving up in the next few weeks. Buy it! Now! :)

Weeds: Complete Collection (UltraViolet Digital Copy) [Blu-ray]

Weeds: Complete Collection
If you don't own "Weeds" on blu-ray yet, then this will likely be your best and cheapest option (rather than buying the seasons individually). But if you already own some or all of the seasons, you'll have to decide whether or not its worth it to upgrade to this set. There are two advantages to owning this set: First, there are four new special features (including a cast roundtable) that are only available on this Complete Collection. Second, the discs come inside "glowing" acrylic packaging that collectors may want to own.

This show is a somewhat polarizing one: some people really love it, others really dislike it. If you've never seen "Weeds", I'd suggest you sample it before purchasing this complete set. If you have Netflix, the entire show is available there. In my opinion, the show fluctuates in quality season to season - but at its best it makes for great television.

Great packaging!!!
This was a great purchase for the entire series on Blu-ray. The glowing case is amazing and the packaging of the discs is very well done as a scrapbook of the entire 8 seasons. It's a book full of pictures, art, and episode synopsis. The only con is that the discs themselves are a little hard to remove from their safety sleeves that make up each page. Overall great deal!!!

Dumbest disk storage booklet ever!
The show is of course excellent. The 1-star rating is dedicated to incompetent design of the booklet for storing disks. This disks slide sideways out of the book pages and the opening is much smaller that the disk, so the only way to get them out is to grab the disk from both sides with fingers (I don't recommend pliers) and pull them out. The disks cannot be easily taken out, you have to apply a lot of force to slide them out and risk cracking. If they don't crack, you have to wipe the disks from your finger marks (I had a wiping cloth next to me while I was watching the show). Similarly, you can't easily put the disks back in.

It's unbelievable that someone could design a booklet like this. This is just dumb! If you don't want to crack or otherwise damage the disks, it could be best to extract the disks once and store them elsewhere. Then what's the point of having a booklet?

Mad Men: Seasons 1-4

Item not as described.
Even though it cost a little bit more money, I ordered this as a "boxed set" per the description on Amazon, rather than ordering the dvds individually. This description is wrong, they are just the four separate dvds, not put together in any boxed format. What really stings is that you can order the four individually on here, FROM THE SAME SELLER, for less money. Don't order this, it's a scam.

Mad men Seasons 1-4
Was very disappointed to receive this product in the mail clearly labelled "mis-labelled from distributor". This was not seasons 1-4 but Season 4, episodes 1-4 :( However, I did return and received credit in full for the item.

Graet Series
Bought this as a gift...it will be cherished for many years and resides among the all the time favorites from TV viewing.
Pre-ordered Season 6, as well. Delivered on time and as promised. Great packaging.
