4/5 A nice pick up for casual fans
  by N. Durham (Philadelphia, PA)
Comedy Central's Reno 911 is a show that shouldn't work, yet it does. Hilariously spoofing COPS and the police force in general, Reno 911 has managed to be a surprise hit for Comedy Central, thanks mainly to the sharp cast which do brilliant improv work in front of the camera. As a previous reviewer has already mentioned, this DVD compilation is basically a quick cash-in attempt from Paramount and Comedy Central to while the big screen adaptation is out and the show itself is in between seasons. However, there are some hilarious moments (including the as yet to be released episode featuring the excellent Paul "Pee Wee Herman" Reubens) to be found here, making this a nice pick up for casual fans of the show who don't want to purchase the season sets. However, if you do own any of the season sets, there is really no reason at all to pick this DVD up.

3/5 You might want to call an ambulance...he's still alive

I've got the Season 1 through 3 DVD sets and bought this because I wanted the "Rick From Citizens Patrol" episode from the currently unreleased Season 4 set. Paul Rubens really nails the Reno 911 brand of "strange" with his character. He's the perfect foil for Dangle, and some of the unexplained bits (the whole Thai thing, including fixing spicy Thai soup right before the episode's "surprise" ending) just ratchets up the oddball factor. For the uninitiated, the "Officer Smiley" episode is another winner and consistently funny throughout. "Reverend Gigg LeCarp" has never been an episode that held up well under multiple viewings. "Reading Ron" has the number one gross-out moment of the entire four seasons (no spoilers in THIS review, however). Think of "Reno's Most Wanted" in the same vein as the single-disc Simpsons DVDs. Paramount's making a fast "between box sets" buck, but it's cheap, and it does have at least one "must-have" for people who own Seasons 1-3 already (the Rubens episode).

5/5 GREAT

I've been in Korea for five years, and i never heard of this T.V. show. A friend of minds told me about it, and it is too funny. Look forward to watching more of this show. It is a must have item.

5/5 an innocent bystander's review...

i've never actually seen any episodes of reno 911, just heard about it and was this close to renting the movie version not too long ago. then i recently saw this 'sampler' dvd at my local target(along with a rack full of other comedy central-themed dvd's) for under $8. i picked up the colbert report dvd sampler, and this one.

i went in order and i must say the first episode on the disc, "scavenger hunt", was really iffy for me. i couldn't get into it and thought 'this was a mistake'. "homeland security pt1" was next and i recognized 'oscar' from my current favorite show "the office" so that was a nice bonus. then, from "homeland security pt2" and the next 4 episodes on(reverand gigg, officer smiley, reading ron, citizen's patrol)...it all clicked for me. this dvd made me a fan.

it's a spoof on those reality cop shows and has that shaky, cam-corder look and feel to it(which i don't like personally so it has to be good for me to even sit through stuff like that). besides sharing the reality-tv theme with "the office", it also has a high cringe-worthy factor, but in a good way. there are just some crazy, offensive, awkward, strange, and ridiculous moments in these episodes that are funny and/or cringe-inducing. anyway, glad to see the season sets aren't much more in price than this dvd sampler cause i plan to try some seasons out in the future on amazon.

special features on this disc: you get top 10 calls(about 14 minutes worth), a song performed by half the cast about not stealing cable, and dvd previews. if you weren't a fan of the show like me, this is highly recommended. but i see amazon has some of their full seasons for about $10-20! i'd go with those instead.

(note: i also see i failed to use any capitals. i'm not going to re-edit)
