I'm so happy I found this I bought it used at a used video store to bring it home to find out that some of the dvd discs don't work. So my husband said go on Amazon and see if u can find a new unopened one. I found this seller and found a new copy ordered it got it within 2 days definitely happy. The only down fall is the movies are stacked on each other in the case but for the price and both seasons 1 and 2 I couldn't be happier. Definitely recommend this dvd and seller.

Great family show!
I love this show...simple as that. Gary Coleman is/was so adorable! I watched each of the episodes and did not feel they were too "cheesy" as some of the 70's/80's sitcoms were. There were real issues presented and they were handled realistically. I enjoyed how the "Mr. Drummond" character interacted with his children...rarely raises his voice and helped his children work through their problems rather than putting them down for making wrong choices. Great family show.

Wholesome, and the dad is NOT stupid!
Great deal and these are wholesome stories centering around the lives of teenagers… hard to find that! I love that the dad in the series is portrayed as wise and caring and not foolish and dumb! I watched this series some when I was young and enjoyed it's humor, but I appreciate it even more now for its wholesomeness. My middle school son loves them and he's a hip guy… these are exciting and humorous enough to keep his attention.

I bought this DVD for my 7-year old daughter and she loves it. If I hear, "Now the world won't move" one more time I will scream to the high heavens. But I did this to myself so I can't complain. She's picked up on the lessons in each show and I think it's a great idea to have the kids of today watch and appreciate the great sitcoms of the 70's, 80's, and even some of the 90's.

so I'm very happy with the purchase
My 8 year old grand daughter watched Diff'rent Strokes on TV one day and when I saw the expressions on her face, I just had to get this for part of her Christmas present! As far as I know the video works, so I'm very happy with the purchase!

Remembering when we were kids...
This is a cute DVD set. I grew up watching this show. One thing I forgot about was how much they bring up the issue of race in the episodes. Just beware that for younger kids, it comes up a lot, and you may have some explaining to do. I am raising my kids to respect everyone, look at the character, not the clothing or outward appearance. In the episodes, the Jackson boys are often called "black" and the issue of them living with a white man and his daughter is mentioned time and again.For it's time, this show was trying to break barriers. It makes me uncomfortable how many episodes cover this "problem" over and over when this "newly made family" is happy together and we can all see that they are of different races. Why must we go over it into the ground? Still, it's a cute show and fun to re-live your childhood when watching.

Show is great but case is horrible
I have loved this show all my life and wanted this on DVD for a lint time but the price was too expensive. I was this 2 season set for around $10 so I ordered but Mill Creek needs to make their cases a little better so the discs aren't at risk in being damaged. I guess this is so you will have to buy another copy in the future

Arrived on time and in good condition. Great series with good values. Don't see television like this anymore. Even better than I remembered. Just wish you could get the complete eight seasons.
