Hmmm... I'm very tempted.

My only reservation is that I wasn't too crazy about S3 (and the direction the series seemed to be headed) -- and it'd be pointless to collect just the first 2 seasons.

I wonder how S4 was and how S5 is going right now(?)...

I liked S4 quite a bit more than S3 though and almost as much as S1. They literally burned the script/series after S3, deciding I guess they had no place left to go, and started over. The early part of the season with Albert Brooks and then the last 1/3 of the season I thought was hysterical (and disturbing sometimes simultaneously).
The series in general has taken a much more serious tone at times than S1 mixed with the comedy, but I think it worked fine. I admit I started watching mid S2 and had to go back to S1 to catch up. A lot of folks who started in S1 seemed to not like S4 as much thinking it had turned away from being more of a pure comedy.

What I didn't like about S3 was it basically started turning into Desperate Housewives (or similar) w/ the soap opera-ish thing. If S4 (and S5) is not like that, maybe I'll like it enough again even though it'll still be different from S1.
