You have to tell each episode to play. There is not a "PLAY ALL" option which is inconvenient. Also, between episodes there is a loop of scenes from the episodes playing which can be very disruptive to the household based off the content of the series if you know what I mean. While beautifully packaged, not a great buy. I'd recommend buying the other box set.
Overall, this is a great show - lots of fun and fluff although NOTHING in the show is remotely realistic so except maybe for a few situations here and there, you can't relate to the characters or their lives at all. If you can overlook that part and recognize that it's all fantasy, then it's fun to watch. I watched the whole 6 seasons 15 years ago and loved it. I recently bought it and watched it again and find that I've changed (grown up) so a lot of the 4 women's behaviors scream needy, desperate and neurotic. If you can overlook that and take it for the fluff that it was intended, then it's fine and the writing is occasionally very witty. My only other gripe is technical. Many of the DVDs have spots where the picture goes black and then it reappears. Not sure if it's my copy only or if the quality of the DVDs is bad.

You have to tell each episode to play. There is not a "PLAY ALL" option. Also, while you're between episodes, there are scenes playing from featured episodes on a loop which can be disruptive to your household. Also, some of the discs won't play. Beautifully packaged but not a great buy.
