Friends Boxed Sets only $26.82 each at Kmart (Seasons 1-9)! (1 Viewer)

I just thought I would let everyone know that might be interested that Friends Boxed Sets are only $26.82 each at Kmart for seasons 1-9. I do realise that the American versions have extra scenes, but I think that this price outweighs this disadvantage.

HOLY MOTHER OF GOD THATS CHEAP!

Yeah, I already have seasons 1-8 Boxed Sets which I paid between $50 and $60 dollars for. Are yours the American versions?

Hey, Series 1 and 2 are the american version but the rest are the crappy Australian versions because i had brought the majority of them before America had even released the friends sets, the only reason i had to buy the American series 1 and 2 is because for the life of me i could not find season 1 and 2 anywhere!!!!! so i just settled for the US version, personally the only thing i dislike about our version is that they're flip disks which you have to be extra careful with or they scratch easily, the US special features aren't that great, i would love the audio commentary though, and i just brought season 10 it has FEATURES lol, a 45 min doco, a 3 part 55 min friends of friends featurette which interviews the gueststars over the years including mr and mrs gellar, 30 mins of bloopers - very funny, friends around the world a 7 min featurette about the show being broadcast in other countries hosted by gunther and a easter egg where we are shown fans of the show - stupid, but the feautres are great!!!!! and each episode in the series is the extended cut with most of them running for 25 mins instead of the regular 21 mins some episodes run for 30 mins so its well worth it, i love friends, i think im one of the biggest fans, i own all the dvds, the book, the board game, a mug and i'm getting my friends who is over in america to bring back even more friends merchandise!!!!!!

Me too. I didn't realise that the American ones had longer episodes until I had bought them. Did Australia get the Boxed Sets before America?

so i just settled for the US version, personally the only thing i dislike about our version is that they're flip disks which you have to be extra careful with or they scratch easily, the US special features aren't that great, i would love the audio commentary though

How are the DVDs in the American Boxed Sets stored? Yeah, it is pretty poor how they don't have any special features in the Australian versions.

and i just brought season 10 it has FEATURES lol, a 45 min doco, a 3 part 55 min friends of friends featurette which interviews the gueststars over the years including mr and mrs gellar, 30 mins of bloopers - very funny, friends around the world a 7 min featurette about the show being broadcast in other countries hosted by gunther and a easter egg where we are shown fans of the show - stupid, but the feautres are great!!!!! and each episode in the series is the extended cut with most of them running for 25 mins instead of the regular 21 mins some episodes run for 30 mins so its well worth it, i love friends, i think im one of the biggest fans, i own all the dvds, the book, the board game, a mug and i'm getting my friends who is over in america to bring back even more friends merchandise!!!!!!

Wow, you do seem dedicated. I only have Seasons 1-8 but I will probably be getting the others soon. Maybe not Season Ten for a while because we just saw that season.

Hey yea Australia has had all the box sets for quite a while before the US, but as you can see it came at a cost, our season 7 box set is pretty good though because we get 2 different versions of each episode, one being the original broadcast episode the second being extended episodes, also the season 9 and 10 box sets have extra scenes in them running anywhere from 30 seconds longer to 10 mins longer in some episodes, so your not really missing out that much, and the quality of our dvds are better because its in the more superior PAL format not NTSC.
