Boston Globe Mark Feeney
The interviews take the slightly unnerving emotional tenor of the show and move it several stages further down the road. Unscripted and lightly edited, they feel like outtakes from a John Cassavetes movie. |

[Shandling's new footage is] creepy. And captivating. Uncomfortably raw. And addictively fascinating. Oh, are there episodes on these four discs, too? Yes, those. They're still marvelous, maybe more so now. |

IGN Eric Goldman
This show really stands the test of time, thanks to the amazing guest stars, terrific central characters, and the extremely clever, funny writing.... [And] this quite simply ranks as some of the best and most interesting array of extras ever seen on a TV show collection. |

This wasn't just a landmark series, though it certainly was that... it's also some of the very best and funniest television ever produced. |

Entertainment Weekly Ken Tucker
Revisiting former colleagues and friends to find out how they felt about both Larry Sanders and Garry Shandling amounts to a monumental display of self-centeredness — and a great deal of fearless revelation and humor. |

Los Angeles Times Robert Lloyd
The shorter version [of the series] gives you the whole shape of "Larry Sanders" — you can take it all in, even with the extras, in a relatively manageable time — and gives the proper context to Shandling's special additions. |

Philadelphia Inquirer Jonathan Storm
This DVD set is so much more than a compilation. It's a new work in itself. |

Chicago Sun-Times Doug Elfman
There's an extra eight hours of incredible new material. |
