I got season 1, all 13 episodes, from my sister. When I was younger I was obsessed with this show. I absolutely loved everything about it, except Ferguson. Now watching it again as an adult, I still enjoyed it very much. I was actually surprised about how much I remembered about the show. For those of you who never watched the show, SHAME ON YOU!!! I'll try to explain it, pun intended. Clarissa is a young teen explaining her life. Her parents are decent and stand up citizens, her father is an architect and her mother works at a children's museum. She has a younger brother, Ferguson, who tries to make her life a living hell. She also has a best bud named Sam, he enters Clarissa's room by coming through the window on a ladder.
Clarissa is at that age when she's trying to find her identity, which explains her crazy outfits and trying just about anything. (This show was not about sex and drugs, you know what I mean) She often made video game programs to explain how she was going to get out of a situation or how she plans to get her way. I'm now wondering if Clarissa Darling is a using her wild imagination to make computer programs or video games.
This show was popular in its original run, I believe it was also one of programs of the original SNICK. Back to the DVD. I like it a lot, of course, but a few things did bug me. For instance most of the photos they used on the actual package and DVD's were from later seasons. (I do think the cover art was from the 1st season, but don't quote me on that.) When the catchy theme song came on the beginning of every episode it too was from a later season. Except for one episode on the second dvd, it did have the original opening.
I wish that I had a camera to take a photo of this amazing dvd set, but alas somebody decided to steal mine. I think you can look it up an amazon.com. I would recommend buying this set, especially if you were a fan of this show or the old Nickelodeon.
I'm not responsible if this song gets stuck in your head, lol
