Customer Reviews

Woohoo!!
It was starting to get a little scary there after two years of waiting for Season 5...Just give us a hint that Season 6 will see the light of day, and possibly, a complete series set and there'll be a lot of happy campers out there!

Truly, one show that can be viewed many times over and you'll laugh every time...

Reba has been one of the most consistently funny sitcoms I have ever had the pleasure of watching!!!

Enjoy!!

Another great season
Amazingly, the writers managed to capture everything entertaining about the previous seasons and take it all even further, without rehash or boredom.

The show is great - the DVD release is shocking
I've been looking forward to this one for a long while, but what a disappointment.

Season 5 of Reba was broadcast in widescreen, but the episodes are presented here in 4:3 - that is inexcusable. Add to that the squeezing of 22 episodes onto 2 discs. The discs are double-sided, with seven episodes on one side and four on the other. The picture quality on the seven-episode sides is dreadful. The set itself consists of the two discs and a flyer - no episode guide at all.

Fox really shouldn't have bothered if this is the best they can do. I'll stick with watching the broadcast versions I have.
