Enjoy all 65 episodes that'll have you digging out your bell-bottoms and rainbow suspenders while you laugh and laugh again ! Review: A reissue of an all-time favorite without any fluffy extras, and also space-saving and at a great price! - Anybody who previously bought either the individual season sets or the big, bulky series set originally put out by Sony are highly advised to sell those sets and get *this* one - especially if you are getting tired of watching all those by-now-dated promos for other Sony TV on DVD sets, unrelated extras (think "minisodes"), and also now-dated promos for then-upcoming theatrical films distributed by Sony. This Mill Creek reissue contains only *the original, uncut episodes and nothing but!* *No* extras, commercials - *none* of that stuff (and, it's space-saving and shelf-friendly besides)! But as for "What's Happening!!" itself: this was one of my favorite shows when I was a teenager back in the 70's (I was only 14 when it premiered in September 1976). Two episodes from the first season are my all-time favorites: "The Birthday Present," in which Raj, Dwayne, and Rerun buy a blouse for Mrs. Thomas' birthday which she believes is "hot;" and "The Tickets," in which Raj, Dwayne, and Rerun are arrested for scalping a pair of tickets to a Stevie Wonder concert - the ending of that one is *so* funny, but I *won't* reveal it for fear of a spoiler. (In the case of "The Birthday Present," however, that one holds some special memories for me because when ABC repeated that one on Thursday, July 7, 1977, I had won a T-shirt from a local radio station an hour earlier - the first thing I ever won in my life, and also the first time I ever heard myself on the radio! But, that's another story.) By contrast, however, the only two episodes I *didn't* care for were from the last season: "No Clothes Make the Man" and the series' final episode, "The Benefit Show" (especially when David Hollander does an impression of a nauseating, all-time UNfavorite of mine, for which I had to hit fast-forward) - but, to paraphrase an old adage, "Two bad apples don't spoil the whole bunch," especially since this show was *consistently* funny and enjoyable for the memories of my "wonder years" it holds. So, if you need more shelf space and want to see *only* the episodes and not endure *any* "back-patting" for the manufacturer's other (dated) products - I *strongly* recommend this Mill Creek reprint of "What's Happening!!" It's also *cheaper* than the original Sony sets! Review: Great dvd set for my old school collection of DVD’s! - As an old white Guy, Ues I did watch this show as a kid and when I saw it for a super sale price, I had to have it. My wife will not watch it with me, but it brings back memories from my childhood and Ot is a great set.

So Much More Entertaining Than I Remember!
I turn 66 years old this month. I grew up watching "these kids" on television. It wasn't until all these years later that I realized how entertaining this show was for its time. The first half of these videos were well written, while the last had much to be desired. When Mabel King left the series it wasn't the same. The new characters "Little Earl" and "Big Earl" added little to the show. The same goes for Roger's roommate. I have to admit after watching for a few hours at a time, Raj's loud voice started to irritate me. Dee, Rerun, Shirley, and Mabel made the show. This was a great purchase, with plenty of laughs, and highly recommended! Sixty-five episodes for a little over $10???? You can't go wrong! Pick this up for your collection.

What a great show this is. So classic for anyone who grew up with it, but so great for newer generations to also enjoy. Great to have as a collection. Just overall satisfied with the purchase as its wonderful to have all the episodes and all 3 seasons together in one place. Each season has 2 discs each. Total of 6 discs for entire collection.

One of the best TV shows

this series is hilarious, I'm glad I got it. There are very few comedies that I get a good laugh out of, but this one I laugh at every episode.
