Cheers is an American sitcom which ran for 11 seasons in the 80's and 90's. It starred Ted Danson, Shelley Long, Kirstie Alley, John Ratzenberger, George Wendt, Rhea Perlman, Woody Harrelson, Kelsey Grammer and Nicolas Colasanto.
In this set they have split the series 1-6 and 7-11 which are respectively housed in large plastic containers (kind of like those pencil boxes from the 90's). Inside each one is a plastic insert that is similar to a book with one disc being held on each page. You can easily flip through the discs to find what you are looking for and no discs are stacked on top of one another.
On the inner cover of each plastic box is a list of episodes and the disc they are on. Their are no episode descriptions but I am glad they at least included the episode titles. As it is such a successful show it will not be difficult to find more information online if that is what you prefer.
These two plastic cases come housed in an exceptionally sturdy box that even has artwork on the inside! This is something I haven't seen on a new set in quite some time and was a small touch that I really appreciated especially as the quality of everything else was also good.
The one thing I wish were different is the writing on the disc itself. The discs are gray and silver and it can make them very difficult to read, a small irksome matter in an otherwise exemplary set!
From what I can see several other recent releases are also packaged like this. It looks like Fraiser, Matlock, and McGyver (mcG definitely is as I have seen it) and I'm guessing others might be as well. But for now these are the ones I'm aware of.
Here is a video of me displaying the set 'in action' if you are interested!
I hope you are having an enjoyable day!
See you soon,
