The fourth disk contains the bonus features of fan favorite sketches (from season 1) like: Romeo (Bruce is a guy who hits on his mother's elderly friends) Cabbage Head (A different one then on the first disk) and Reg, plus sketches from the rare pilot episode, audio commentary, cast bios, an oral history featuring new interviews with the Kids! and Lorne Micheals and 30 minutes of live performances at the Rivoli Theater.

Manny Coon, Bank People, My Routine, Car Ride and Dr. Seuss Bible are hilarious, don't miss them. Excellent price.. KITH is brilliant, the funniest sketch comedy I've seen and definitely the most innovative. I love the Kids! Thanks to the A&E channel, Broadway Video and persistent fans!

The first three discs contain all the episodes from the first season and the fourth disc is a special features disc. I won't spoil the fun but it does contain the pilot episode which is right on par with their regular stuff. I will say this much, remember the last KITH episode? Remember the sketch where Bruce is onstage and he watches part of a sketch with all the Kids sitting around a campfire? Well that sketch is from the pilot episode and this is probably the only way you will ever see it! (unless you could download it somehow... hmmm gives me an idea)

From watching the episodes Comedy Central aired I was under the impression that 'The Kids' came up with their characters initially and kept them going throughout all of their seasons. Not true. After watching the first season this is abundantly clear. Here we get several sketches from Gordon and Fran, Bobby Terrance, The Headcrusher, Thirty Helens, and The-Nobody-Likes-Us-Guys but sadly have to do without Sid and Charisse, Simon and Heckubus, Chicken Lady, Gavin, Francesca Fiore and many other fan favorites. Mississippi Gary is merely introduced along with glimpses of Cathy and Kathy and of course Buddy Cole.

Overall this was an AWESOME walk down memory lane. There are a few sketches that were never aired on comedy central (censored) and that alone makes it worth purchasing for any die-hard fan. Plus there are a few snippets that Comedy Central just cut out for no apparent reason at all. For example, when Mark stands outside of a house and keeps yelling for Lopez there is a brief segment I never even knew existed. (he makes up a little song about how Lopez is lazy)

In conclusion, this is a wise purchase for the casual fan and a godsend to a diehard like me.
