I have all 7 seasons seperately and 1-6 are in thick cardboard like packages and season 7 is a thinner cardboard package, but it still has the same design as the other 6 seasons. I had seasons 1-3 for a few years and just recently bought 4-7 in that Deep Discount 25% off sale and I ended up paying about $30 per season instead of over $40.

It didn't really bother me because I just wanted all seven seasons. If they are ever released on BD I'll buy them with the money I make from selling the DVD seasons. It is definitely my favorite TV show of all time.

i mean the difference is night and day. im pretty sure i could stand on the original thick version without it buckling under the stress. no chance of that with the wimpy flimsy thin version.
