The Big Bang Theory Season 1 DVD brings home all 17 episodes of the first season of Chuck Lorre and Bill Prady's CBS sitcom, which aired from September 24, 2007 to May 19, 2008. It is where Leonard, Sheldon and their friends first meet Penny, the new neighbor across the hall.
This is a DVD set, so it plays in standard DVD players and in Blu-ray players. The first season debuted on DVD in the US on September 2, 2008.
The Big Bang Theory follows two physicists who share an apartment in Pasadena, California. Leonard Hofstadter, played by Johnny Galecki, is an experimental physicist, and Sheldon Cooper, played by Jim Parsons, is a theoretical physicist. Most of the group works at Caltech.
Their lives change when Penny, played by Kaley Cuoco, moves in across the hall. She is an aspiring actress who works as a waitress, and Leonard is drawn to her from the start. Their friends Howard Wolowitz, an aerospace engineer played by Simon Helberg, and Raj Koothrappali, an astrophysicist played by Kunal Nayyar, complete the group.
Season 1 includes "The Hamburger Postulate," "The Pancake Batter Anomaly" and the finale, "The Tangerine Factor." Sara Gilbert also appears in a recurring role as physicist Leslie Winkle.
The series ran for 12 seasons and 279 episodes, and Jim Parsons went on to win four Primetime Emmy Awards for playing Sheldon. The first season is where those characters and their friendships take shape.
The pilot drew 9.52 million viewers, the season's biggest audience. Owning the season on disc means you can revisit the beginning any time, without depending on a streaming service.

The show gets 5 stars. Amazon gets 2.
I’m an American who lives in Japan and have been a faithful Amazon customer for over a decade now, spending thousands of dollars for American DVDs. Amazon has always been a wonderful place to shop–they have always offered me 3 options for shipping–instead of the cheapest and slowest, or the most costly and quickest, I usually opt for the middle choice. DVDs arrive in less than 2 weeks, and it doesn’t cost the world.
Recently, Amazon actually sent me an e-mail to announce that DVDs of Seasons 1-3 of Big Bang Theory could be bought in a package deal for a reasonable price. When I went to order, however, it was a different story. I was told that I could order seasons 1 and 2 separately, but that I could NOT order the Seasons 1, 2, and 3 as a group, because of where I live! So I gave up, and just got Seasons 1 and 2. The other day, I ordered Seasons 3 and 4 and 5 all separately. This time, there were no shipping options available. The DVDs would be shipped at the snail-slow cheapest speed, like it or not. So now, I get to wait over a month. Yippee. Gee thanks, Amazon.
Shopping at Amazon used to be fun. Now, I hesitate to buy stuff, because “what new goofy regulations will I have to cope with next?” Amazon’s considerate service used to be stellar, and their recent ways of doing things really pale in comparison. Maybe it was too good to last.
As for Big Bang Theory itself, I accidentally came across it on Japanese TV and loved it. This is the first American comedy show I’ve seen since I Love Lucy that is a completely fresh and new approach to situation comedy. I’m so glad it’s available on DVD, even if I will have to wait quite a while for my copy.
