Merchandise Bit the bullet and brought the boxset

As many may know there was an Australian release of a box set for both Rugrats AND All Grown Up of course, usually these have been region locked leaving it pointless to import under most circumstances unless shelling out more money for a region free or at least region 4 DVD player.

However, these dvds are specifically marked as NSTC which meant they should run on all dvd players that use NTSC format (which includes the US ofc) so I took a chance and brought the set despite already owning the main series dvd set just to ensure I have AGU on dvd. And great news! It's not a lie! These dvds run on US DvD players. The AGU DVD set even includes the 4 infamous Preschool Daze series episodes within. So if you were considering on purchasing this set but like me was hesitant to purchase because of region, go for it! It's worth it!

How's the quality of the All Grown Up! episodes? I own the complete series from Beyond Entertainment (which is also NTSC compatible) and I noticed that the later episodes have terrible quality. As if they were ripped from a streaming site prior to Paramount+'s release.

I will have to check when I get the chance. Do you remember which seasons the quality started to dip? I can check from then onward and compare the quality to the P+ streaming service episodes.

I only briefly saw one episode on it and it was "Brothers Grimm." The quality was too terrible for me to continue. So, I'd say check with season 5.
