Not Happy That I Had to Purchase the Item to Find the List of Seasons/Episodes
Since the Amazon listing doesn't tell you what seasons/episodes are included with this 2-disc set, I will provide them here:Season 1, Episode 10 - The Client's Best InterestSeason 1, Episode 11 - The Stuff Dreams are Made OfSeason 4, Episode 1 - Cause and EffectSeason 4, Episode 7 - The Changing of the GuardSeason 4, Episode 11 - The Art of Give and TakeSeason 5, Episode 1 - Making Things HappenSeason 5, Episode 10 - Last CallSeason 6, Episode 1 - Setting PrecedentsSeason 7, Episode 1 - The ImmortalSeason 7, Episode 5 - Playing it SafeSeason 7, Episode 6 - Moments to RememberSeason 7, Episode 9 - End GameSeason 7, Episode 11 - All That GlittersI had to open the package to find the list, and since the season/episode I was looking for was not included, my copy will be resold without either disc ever being played.

Better than I expected.
I was expecting a used dvd set in good condition; but received a new set. I’m very happy.

Great Show, Great DVD Set
I'm waiting for more episodes from this smart and witty comedy series which is easily the best show from HBO in a while. Whilst The Sopranos and Sex In the City get all the critical attention and Today show fawning Arliss is the show that deserves all the accolades. It is all due to Robert Wuhl, the goofy reporter from Batman, who would have guessed? But the guy is a comic genius and this show is great. Every episode leaves you with a smile, even when they are serious, which some of them are. The sense of life in this series is very benevolent, which is what makes it so much better than the other two HBO series. The DVD is of great quality, only adding to the enjoyment.

Robert Wuhl is simply one of the best actors of our time.
"For most of us, the dream of becoming a champion remains a fantasy. But for a special few, it is very much a reality. We cheer them, we live through them, athletes are our last warriors. My job is to make their dreams come true. My name is Arliss Michaels, I represent athletes, these are my stories." This show is as good as anything that has ever crossed the TV screen. Arliss, Kirby, Rita, Stanley .. every bit as good as Seinfeld. I hope Mr. Wuhl will come up with another long running sports oriented series. He's a natural.

Great show but wheres the rest of it ?
This is one of the funniest shows ive ever seen. Excellent cast and characters. Robert Wuhl is fantastic as the super agent and will go to such hysterical lengths to get his clients what they want. What is the matter with the folks at HBO ? They need to release this show in its entirity. For the price you cant go wrong buying this but im pre-warning you...the show is so good you will be thinking the same as i do. Wheres the rest of the shows ???

Where are the rest?
This is only given 4 stars because it is a compilation insteadof full individual seasons. Arliss is by far the best series producedby HBO and the repeats on regular cable omit a good bit of thelanguage that was present for an adult comedy. A great addition to any DVD collection.

Athletes.........
This series is about the Sports Agent and a full sports agency - the PR, the accounting, the partners, the administrative assistant. Way before Ballers, this was the original series on HBO. Its a classic.

I still miss Arli$$
That's all. To those who have seen the show nothing else needs to be said. Those who have not seen it will never know what they have missed. This TV series was brilliant, funny, & extraordinaire. It is the only show which I watch regularly on DVD because it makes me laugh.

Arliss
Compré el DVD porque la serie me gustó. Fue de lo primero como parodia de las actividades profesionales de los agentes de atletas.Desafortunadamente solo venden unos cuantos capítulos, que alguien supone fueron los mejores.
