The deleted scenes are fun. They offer some good insight as to how the show works; showing them kind of improving untill they break up or whatever and then switching gears. The deleted stuff is all uncensored too.
One thing that kind of sucks is that they put the shows on in order of production numbers, and while it fixes some of the continuity problems in the earlier shows, it creates more for the later shows; specifically the anthrax episode (part one is shown as episode 11 or something, while part two is episode 14, the last on the disk), and the last episode of the series with the cliffhanger ending is on there as episode 13
So it's like
Episode 11: Anthrax part 1
Episode 12: Officer Dangle moves
Episode 13: Last episode of the Season with Cliffhanger where everybody dies
Episode 14: Anthrax part 2
There are 4 regular audio commentaries. They are done so that there are 2 people per commentary, and everybody in the cast (and the director) does at least one commentary. This is obviously done so that they could all record their commetnaries at once and have the 4 commentaries recorded in a half hour. That kinda sucks, it would be better to have at least Thomas, Kerri, Ben, and the Director on ALL the commentaries, since they are the most important people involved in the show. That and the big group commentaries would just be funner.
There is one secret commetnary on episode 2, where everybody is together, and they just re-enact the audio of the episode (including the music, the diologue, and the sound effects) from memory. It is amusing.
I think my favorite commentary was the one with Kerri and Ben. From what I remember they went more into how the show was created and how it is done. The other people just comment on the episode and joke around.
A pretty good release. I mean, this is kind of the standard for Comedy Central DVDs (4 audio commentaries not including "special" commentaries or secret comentaries) plus some other extra that they can easily put on there (pilots, deleted scenes, etc) and comedy central "quickies" (scenes from south park or crank yankers or whatever else they can put on to promote their crappy network).
