Survivor 20: Heroes and Villains (5 Discs)

Keep the Survivor DVD's coming!
As other reviewers have said, I was hoping that Thailand and Amazon would be next, but any Survivor is good Survivor. I'll get the DVD's no matter which season. Those two next though please Amazon / CBS!
Heroes vs. Villains, although bogged down by a few problems, is actually one of my favourite seasons. Off the back of Tocantins and Samoa, I didn't think I'd be able to enjoy Survivor much anymore. Despite the return of Russell and the ridiculous amount of idols this season, I actually ended up really enjoying it, although Sandra should've had a much better edit pre-merge, seeing as she's the greatest winner ever (also the greatest two times winner as well did you know?).
On the plus side, giving the show a two hour premiere was a fantastic choice and gave us one of the best first episodes ever in the shows history. It also seems judging by the running time this set will be packed full of bonus footage, which makes this all the more worth the purchase. Keep the Survivor...

Great Season, High Quality Product
Summary
Pros:
+One of the best, most memorable seasons of Survivor in the show's 22-season run
+Lots of great extras
+10 discs and optimal DVD video quality for a TV show of this nature (16:9 widescreen)
+High-quality discs
+Well-designed sleeves
+Effective menus

Cons:
-Smaller printing on the backs of the DVD cases is too light and hard (but not impossible) to read
-No cardboard sleeve to contain the 3 DVD cases

EDIT 5/29/11:
Based on a question I got, I need to update my review to note that there ARE closed captions for the episodes. Most of the extras did not seem to have them, or I was unable to get them to work otherwise, but the show itself is captioned.

Overall Recommendation:
+Definite BUY for: (a) Survivor fans, (b) people who watched Survivor during its earlier seasons and would like to see some of their favorite players return, and (c) anyone curious about Survivor who hasn't really...

ALL SURVIVOR DVDS!!!
Survivor fans have been waiting many years for more seasons to come out on DVD. Very excited they've released Africa and Marquesas, and I'll definitely be pre-ordering Heroes vs. Villains. Hope that all the seasons in between will be released in time. They could put out like 2 a year and do very well with it. Survivor fans are a loyal bunch. Hoping for Thailand and Amazon next. And even though some viewers think Thailand wouldn't sell well, yes, it would. Or just package it as a box set of Amazon/Thailand together. ALL SEASONS NEED TO BE RELEASED....but if we have to pick and choose, I also hope China and Micronesia make the cut.
