Gene Simmons Family Jewels: The Complete Season Three Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The cover of this dvd says 'the complete season 3' - it is NOT. Missing is the one hour 'Roast' episode. They have the moments leading up to the show, the planning of it, etc. and at the end of the episode it says 'To be continued...' hmm, well it did not continue on this dvd apparantly. It is nowhere to be found. On the 4th disc is an episode called 'Fan Favorites" and, to add insult to injury, they show clips from the Roast...that's riiiight the one missing from this DVD. This is very deceptive of A&E home video and the producers of the show and being a fan of the show, do not appreciate and feel duped just by seeing the world 'complete' on the dvd cover. So be warned - this does NOT have every episode of season 3. Why they would leave out the funniest moment of the show and leave us feeling let down is beyond me. My guess is they want to release it seperately and gouge us a second time with the price. Very dissapointing. I suppose the next dvd set of this show they will change the opening music and edit down episodes and not tell anyone just like a lot of the TV show dvds that come out these days. I wish deceptive practices like this would stop. This is my only complaint with this dvd. I'm a huge Kiss/Gene Simmons fan but I was really ticked off by this. Anyone agree with me?

Gene Simmons Family Jewels: Season 5 (2010) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)After four seasons the show remains excellent and there are many highlights in season 5. Gene's 60th Birthday is certainly one of them (it's the first time Paul is on the show!), Gene goes on Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grader? , the hour long 100th episode special, Shannon's Tazer party and Nick promoting his Incarnate book were all great parts of the fifth season. I never thought the show would last as long as it did and season 5 is just as good as any Family Jewels season, I find the episodes are still entertaining and fun to watch, I mean, the show is still a good one after all that time the quality has not gone down. I like Gene Simmons Family Jewels better than most reality shows and that's not just because I'm a KISS fan but mostly because those people are likable and I actually like them, they seems like nice people and their lives are interesting to a certain degree.I like that season 5 is being released on DVD, I really do, but the bad part is that there is an episode missing. The special episode on the Australia tour which aired this past summer is not included, I feel like it should be here because it was a highly interesting special and one that KISS fans would love to see again. I'm glad that I own the episodes on DVD but it would've been great to have the missing episode included. If I would've known it wasn't included I still would have bought the DVD, it's not like it ruins EVERYTHING it's just too bad it's not here. If you want to won this season, you should. Just be aware that there is an episode missing. 4/5 for the episodes and 3/5 for the DVD lacking an episode (after all it's not a "complete" season then).

Gene Simmons - Family Jewels - Season One (2006) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It's tough to discuss this show without mentioning the more popular Osbournes. The Osbournes came first, the Osbournes was a big hit...heck, even my dad (who knows nothing about rock n' roll) watched that show. He thought Ozzy was funny. But this is the better show. And this is why.
First of all, there's hardly any cussing. Very rarely do you hear the "beeps" (and yes, it's all beeps, no actual cussing). Second, this family is much more likable. Nick Simmons is a bright, funny young guy, and Shannon Tweed is absolutely hilarious. Third, you can understand what Gene is saying, unlike the Ozzman. And last, you can tell right away how much this family loves each other. I got tired of the Osbournes always fighting. These guys joke around and play pranks, but there's very little fighting going on. And although Gene is well-known for his love of women, there's very little bare skin on this show.
I'm writing this and I haven't even finished the first disc yet. I just like this show. I think it's hilarious and I can't stop watching (except to get a Pepsi and write this)! I haven't even gotten to the "lost songs" yet...can't wait to hear them.
There was one episode in particular, the "unaired pilot" in which Gene is grilling the boy who is about to take young Sophie Simmons out to the dance. I saw visions of my own future as a father there. Just a priceless moment. I felt very sorry for that poor young man who had to sit across a very large desk from Mr. Simmons and be grilled about dating his young daughter.
This is an excellent show, and I highly recommend it, whether you like Kiss or not. Just give it a shot.
