DVD Boxsets

Nitcentral's Bulletin Brash Reflections: Mystery Science Theater 3000: DVD Boxsets
As well as individual episodes, there are DVD boxsets on sale, mostly containing four episodes each (or three episodes and an extra such as one of the Shorts collections). This is (hopefully) the up-to-date list.

Note: All boxsets are Region 1, so if you are living anywhere but North America, you’ll need to have an all-region or region-free DVD player.

Volume XXXIX: Girls Town / The Amazing Transparent Man / Diabolik
The fourth disc is called “Satellite Dishes” and contains all the host segments from the remaining 12 or so episodes which have not been released on DVD. Shout Factory has been unable to get licences to release these episodes and so this is likely to be the last boxset containing episodes up to and including Season 10.
There’s a limited edition version of the boxset which contains a bonus disc of all the “Poopie!” recordings.


Season 11: All episodes, due for release on 28 April 2018.
