Dexter’s Laboratory: The Complete Series (DVD)

Great presentation. Even came with a little episode guide inside.

"Complete". Missing "Barbequor". Why? Also could have included "Rude Removal"...but maybe they didn't have the rights to it, as it was never aired.Otherwise, it's nice to have these in high quality. Order is a bit off. There were only 4 seasons.Seasons 1 and 2 are the best (which finish with Ego Trip). Seasons 3 and 4 were when Cartoon Network used it as a cash cow. Lower quality animation (especially season 3) and weak story plots.But I'm not here to criticize Dexter's Laboratory...Worth picking up if you're a fan of the series.

Bought while on sale. Loved to re-watch show from while I was growing up. All disc's came in good condition.

Still a fun watch at 31 years old

The DVD set is a great one to have since you can finally have a majority of the series at the palm of your hands (especially since "Ego Trip" is included on the 12th disc). However, there are caveats to this set:1) The episodes "Dial M for Monkey: Barbequor" and "Rude Removal" are unsurprisingly not a part of this set. The former episode had some trouble with Marvel as the Silver Spooner was a bit too close to the Silver Surfer, and the latter was banned since it wasn't really deemed as an episode that could go on air for the kid friendly Cartoon Network. These episodes are pretty easy to find elsewhere, however.2) When compared to the old Season 1 DVD set, a bunch of the episodes in this new set have this weird black bar issue on the bottom right of the screen (see attached photos). The good news is that this weird issue only seems to impact some of the episodes within the first two discs (what the set designates as Season 1) as well as the first three episodes of Season 2 (specifically "Beard to Be Feared", "Quackor: The Fowl", and "Ant Pants"). From what I have tested, the rest of the DVD set lacks this black line issue (you can see some of the edges of the frames in some of the other episodes, however), so I guess Warner Bros. had issues with the recordings for most of the episodes in the first season. As such, if this is a deal breaker for your DVD set, then the simplest solution is to just grab the Season 1 DVD set for the better looking 1st season and this complete series set for the later seasons (even though that would add an extra $15 or so to your overall order).3) Episode order matches that of what the show had on Max, not the original ordering that the show had when it aired on TV (so, what you'd see on the TVDB).4) "Dexter's Rival" and "Dexter's Lab: A Story" are duplicated on this set. The former appears on discs 1 and 2 while the latter appears on discs 2 and 6. This is likely due to "Barbequor" being banned as that issue occurred in the S1 DVD set that was released years ago.5) One episode had the intro sequence (the usual intro where Dee Dee dances into Dexter's lab) played with a lower pitch. The rest of the episode has the correct pitch, however, so I'm unsure why only the intro was affected.Overall, I like this set, but its image quality isn't as good as the Powerpuff Girls set that was released a bit before it or the Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends set from the prior year. I imagine that Warner Bros. is working with the masters that they managed to preserve (as Dexter's Lab is from '96 while PPG is '98 and Foster's is from '04), but that whole black line issue didn't exist in the older S1 set. Still, I'm glad that the series is FINALLY complete for home releases (barring the two banned episodes) as it was removed from HBO Max for some dumb reason. Definitely worth grabbing to have continuous access to the show at this point!I hope Johnny Bravo comes next!

Great picture quaulity.

Arrived as expected

An excellent full collection for the Dexter's Lab show. Looks just how it should. Though there is a small, flickering black line on some early episodes but maybe that's just how it was and wasn't noticeable on a CRT TV back in the day. Seems to go away eventually in later episodes, hopefully for good. Wish the DVD collection had more fun extras and a more inspired menu screen but as it stands this is a nice way to own the whole cartoon in DVD format! The slip cover is fun and stylish too!
