24: Season One Special Edition August 11, 2008
Overall enjoyment of the movie is good and Season one of 24 is probably one of my favorite among all seasons. However, absence of Dolbi Digital or DTS is a big let down, espeacially for a "special edition" like this. This is the main reason why I could only offer 3 star.
Where is the Blu-ray ? July 11, 2008

I love 24 and I love special editions, but I will not double dip until the Blu-ray comes out. Where is the Blu-ray of this great show ?!
 Tired of all this re-releasing. June 22, 2008

24 is a great show. Among the best of all. And season 1 was its best, but this set is another example of the lame tendency Fox has to release everything 7 or 8 times in different editions. If there really was useful bonuses to include on a new edition, why not have done it last year on the slim case edition. The packaging is not that bad, the features are interesting and the show itself is exelent, but the fact that this is actually the third time that this season is released on DVD is just another lame excuse for Fox to suck money out of dedicated fans. There is no need to buy this edition if you have one of the previous ones.
 DO NOT BUY!! May 29, 2008

Do not buy this edition; your discs will probably be damaged. The packaging is cheap and horrible. The discs slip out of the rough "cardboard" holders and move about the inside of the container, scratching them. I bought this set brand new, in the original packaging/wrapper and three of the discs had slipped out of their slots during transit. The edges of the discs were scuffed up, as there is an uneven "raised" cardboard surface right underneath where the disc is housed. The disc will rub up and down over that surface, damaging it. There is nothing (like a hub) to keep the disc in place; they slide out of their slots and roll all over the place.
Another case of "Double Dip" May 27, 2008

I picked up the special Edition of 24: Season One, after seeing it at a local retail store - and I have to say this release really sucks.
First is the packaging.
The outer packaging is a gaudy metal case, with a LCD display built into the cover.
As mentioned in a previous review, the interior package is all cardboard. Think of it like a book with each page having a "sleve" for the disc. There is nothing to prevent the discs from getting scratched up as you are taking them out/putting them back in. Like the other reviewer stated, you'll need to get some empy CD/DVD cases in order to properly store the discs.
2nd problem,
Why re-release the entire season for a third time?(digi-pack, thin pack, and now special edition.) Would have much rather prefered to have them release just the first and last discs (these contain the commentaries) plus the supplemental disc, in thin pack cases, then bundle them together in a new outer box similar in size to the ones released for season 2 and up.
Then, those who wanted to upgrade could just toss out the old first and last discs and place the remaining discs, along with the new ones in the new box. The only reason I can think of as to why Fox chose NOT to go this route, was that people who didn't have a thin pack copy of season 1 would buy the special edition and upon realizing it's not the entire season, take it back to the store.
As for the new "extra content" on this set, I haven't sat down and watched any of it. My two star rating mainly applies to the useless packaging.
If you already have season 1, then I'd suggest that you skip this release. If you are a die hard fan, or a completist who wants everything released for the show, then I'd suggest you check Amazon Marketplace for used copies, because I have a feeling it's going to be flooded with them.
Fox should know better then to double dip. Yes, it sucks that there was no season of the show this year because of the WGA strike. And that's what this release is truly all about. There is no new DVD set this year, so Fox decided to fill the need by releasing Season 1 for the third time.
Shame on you Fox, and shame on the creators for going along with this stupid idea.
