Office: Complete Series (DVD)

Believe all the other reviews that say the case is horrible. I knew before my purchase, and tried to pick one that wasn't obviously rattling or visibly damaged. It doesn't matter how careful you are, mine still had loose discs. The DVD's are held in place by the most rigid, almost hostile set of plastic pegs. Discs sit right on top of one another, which defeats the purpose of a case. Thirty-eight times, you'll have to painstaikingly pry the DVD off plastic pegs that don't flex to release the disc like you'd expect. I was prepared thanks to the other reviews, and immediately transfered the set to a zippered CD case. You'll want to double-check for scratches as you transition them to sleeves that actually keep discs clean. I ran into four or five minor scratches, one had a greasy smudge. The discs that weren't spotless I watched first to screen for skipping. I've seen the series dozens of times, so I didn't mind jumping ahead, but it was definitely a chore. Like everyone else, I wanted DVD's of the series so I didn't have to lease it through Peacock. I couldn't help but feel like the packaging was so bad, maybe it was intentional? Almost like NBC Universal wanted to punish or discourage people from getting at their content outside a streaming service. I also feel like part of what I paid for was the storage case, which is now sitting empty in a closet. I'm not big on displaying that sort of stuff, but I can see how this would be infuriating for someone who likes to keep a dvd library. Trust me, you'll need another case immediately. The inner plastic ring of the DVD's won't survive the pegs indefinitely. I was especially careful, and lucky they didn't break after one removal. They could have made a better case, but it would have been probably twice the size. Especially given its a 'complete series' you'd think they wouldn't have cut such noticable corners.

This is only seasons 1 through 5, not all of them.

Cons: - The DVDs are very fragile, be very careful when taking them out of the box. - I have a laptop so need to run it through the external dvd writer. If you play the DVD when it shows up on the computer it will run fine but if you open the contents of the DVD and run it file by file, it won't play. There will be some encryption errors. So if you want to watch it, you can only play the DVD from the beginning or else be ready to bang your head on the wall. -There is no way to copy the contents to the laptop and play it without the external dvd writer. Maybe it's okay to a certain extent because of copyright issues but it's a lot of hassle to have a dvd writer connected all the time, can't watch it in bed. The DVD in itself is good, the quality of video is good too. If you plan to only watch it on a DVD player then you're all sorted!

I bought the DVD's in order to avoid chasing down the show every time it changes streaming services. You can't beat the price. The DVD's don't appear to be HD quality, but that's not surprising. As others said, the case design and the way the DVD's are stored is terrible, and I would recommend putting them in a separate case. It is difficult to get some of the DVD's out of the case initially; treat them carefully. Other DVD's were loose in the case, as they had already dislodged from their holder. Luckily I did a quick test run, and all of them booted up, so hopefully there are no issues. The show is great, duh!

I was nervous to purchase this online because of the bad reviews. I tried my luck and ordered it anyway. I’m giving this as a gift so I cannot fully see the quality of the disks, but the packaging was all in good condition!! Glad I took the risk :)

This has to be one of the worst case designs ever and unfortunately this is the only version of the complete series aside from the blue ray edition. I’m on my third set now because the first two had damaged discs. If you do purchase, make sure you inspect the discs ASAP as possible (as Michael Scott would say) since there is a shorter return policy on DVDs as well as you can only exchange it once opened. Design aside, this is a great series that I’ve always wanted to own and it has so much bonus content so if you have the patience plus a stash of paper disc sleeves then this is the set for you. I’ll always recommend the series and I’m still happy-ish with my purchase, I just want future buyers to know what they might be getting themselves into.

Horrible, the way they made this pack was dumb. They stack 2 disks on top of each other so even brand new everything was scratched. There are also 38 separate disks. Each one only has 3-4 episodes. I had to buy separate disk holders to keep them from scratching. The episodes of course are great just the way they executed this could have been 100x better.

I didn’t like that it had 34 separate discs with only 3-4 episodes on each one.

This is the only show that we are always watching. The Office is hilarious and always makes me laugh. I was excited to buy this DVD set because it's currently only available on Peacock paid streaming. So now I own the set forever for less than the price of a one-year subscription!

Great price for complete series but the case is horrible. The discs get scratched and fall out everytime you open it or just even move the case. Im gonna need to buy seperate disc holders for each individual disc cause there all thrown into one with no protection.

I bought this when Netflix dropped The Office, and I’m honestly very displeased with the box itself. The discs are all layered together and it very flimsy. I’m going to buy a CD case to store them in because this case is so bad. Love the show though haha.

I love target because they always have the dvds I need!

This is the complete series with a lot of extra features. For anyone who became a fan while it was on Netflix but can't watch anymore now that it's gone.

LOVE the show, hate the packaging it came in. DVDs were loose. Please consider changing the packaging this show comes in as they are loose in, at the same time some are hard to pull out leading to possibly damaging the DVDs. Cardboard case portion was torn in several places.

Ordered this as a gift for my boyfriend since the office isn’t on Netflix anymore. Was kind of nervous that it would come damaged because of the other reviews but it came in great condition and the shipping was so fast!! Love it

The show itself is amazing. Duh. But the case that holds the dvds is an absolute nightmare. There is about 3 dvds stacked on top of each other so you have to take them all out to get to the one you’re looking for. Everything is weirdly out of order. I’m not sure why they decided to do it this way. Do yourself a favor and buy yourself a separate case because this one just isn’t it.

I love the office, but just began watching this 4 months after purchase. One of the episodes is missing half the scenes (season 9 ep 15 - the entire bit in the salon and before is missing). Im hoping i can exchange it, and that this is a one off issue.

I love The Office and I am so excited to have this now!!
