 If you like comedy..., 2008-10-31
If you like comedy you have to get this dvd. This show is the precursor to tv shows like "Curb Your Enthusiasm" and "Arrested Development". It is the behind the scenes look at an insecure talk-show host. A must get for any fans of Garry Shandlings and if you are not a fan- you don't appreciate comedy.

 A Good Overview, But Wait for the Entire Series, 2008-10-18
Worthy of more honors than it received, "The Larry Sanders Show" (1992-98) remains a television classic. The "Not Just the Best" DVD set includes 23 episodes plus extras ranging from deleted scenes to cast interviews. However, Garry Shandling's selection process may differ from yours. Since the groundbreaking "narcissitcom" spanned 89 episodes, this greatest-hits approach will not satisfy everyone. Fan favorites such as "Arthur After Hours" (a tour de force from Rip Torn) and "Off Camera" (highlighted by the Gene Siskel-John Ritter fight) are nowhere to be found, but a lesser episode like "Pilots and Pens Lost" somehow made the cut. As a result, the DVD sampler is recommended primarily for newcomers. Shandling's brilliant talk-show satire deserves to be released in its entirety - with no flipping!

Not the best deal, either, 2008-10-09
Don't get me wrong; I'm the biggest LS fan there is, and I WISH they would come out with a complete set of episodes on DVD. But this collection was touted as much more than just a first-season offering with bonus material. The interviews were boring, not funny, and at times uncomfortable to watch. The episode commentaries were trite and uninsightful.
I think this is one of the best shows ever on TV; but this collection is not worth the money - you get can season 1 on Ebay and be done with it.
 Best is best, 2008-08-12
Really what you say about this it is what it IS....FUNNY! I have the first season and even if there is one or two shows on this it is worth the buy. The trouble they had to just get this far with the Larry Sanders Show (well look at the cover) Do youself a favor buy this. You will enjoy/

I understand your reservations, but get this. Get it now!, 2008-07-18
I understand the frustration with waiting for the complete seasons, but I say in all honesty, I would get this even if I owned all the seasons.
When it comes to extras, I'm usually sceptical. Like who needs to see a feature-length documentary on "Billy Madison" even if you liked it. However, the extras on this set are a revelation.
Larry Sanders is a wonderful show. It's cutting edge. The extras reveal a lot of great moments and is further evidence of the professionalism and love that went into this show.
Buy it!
