Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
Comic book artist Jhonen Vasquez's outré sci-fi spoof, which ran on Nicktoons at Night from March 2001 to December 2002, remains the object of a vociferous cult following. Pressure from the fans compelled Nickelodeon to resume production of Invader Zim twice before the show was cancelled permanently. The title character is a zealous, none-too-bright agent from the Irken Empire posing a human boy. Zim imagines he's gathering vital information for the imminent conquest of Earth; the Irken leaders actually sent him here to get rid of him. With the rather spotty assistance of Gir, his robot sidekick disguised as a dog, Zim alternately sneers at humanity and gets himself into trouble. The only person who recognizes Zim as an alien is his UFO-obsessed classmate, Dib.
The two-disc set is loaded with extras that will delight fans of the show, including commentaries by Vasquez and several of the story and voice artists, a second "commentary" of pigs grunting, subtitles in Irken, and the original pilot for the series. The uninitiated may find Invader Zim suggests a cross between Dexter's Laboratory and Jimmy Neutron re-imagined by Tim Burton. The bizarre designs, over-the-top vocal performances, and bodily function jokes are not for the faint-hearted, but they're not supposed to be. (Unrated, suitable for ages 10 and older: cartoon violence, gross humor) --Charles Solomon

I've missed this show, I watched it when it first aired. Friend talked to me about it randomly so I looked it up. Heed my warning, if you KNOW you already like this show, you can get the complete series(all 3 seasons) for $25. Saves money vrs. buying volumes.

this dvd set has been my favorite since it was first offered. Nick has a nasty habit of keeping awesome shows down, and off the dvd racks. but the ZIM fan club threatend to burn down nick studios so they caved and gave us Zim on DVD!

Invader Zim is probably one of the best cartoons in America. Gir is so funny! He says lots of funny and random things. I totally recommend Invader Zim to anyone who loves funny cartoons.
Zim: "Why is there bacon in the soap?"
Gir: "I made it myself":)

Invader Zim is a dark, disturbing cartoon that looks like someone made it that was insane (but in a good way). The basis of the story is that an alien, Zim, from planet Irk is sent to a mysterious planet on what he thinks is a mission to conquer it. His leaders, The Almighty Tallest, only sent him away to be rid of him for a while. Zim and his robot servant, GIR, just so happen to land on Earth. Sadly, Zim is unequipped to handle the challenges that await him on Earth. To make matters worse for Zim, a child with a huge head named Dib sets out to stop Zim at all costs.
One character you will learn to love is GIR. GIR was meant to be Zim's robot slave, but the Tallest weren't sending him on a real mission anyway so they just filled a robot with trash. GIR screams like a maniac and says random things that you will love.
This DVD also comes with animatics and commentary settings for each show. The commentary is very interesting and fun to listen to and involved serveral different members of the show. You also get the un-aired pilot episode that has the guy who does GIR's voice doing Zim's voice.
This is episodes 1-9 in the first season. Since all the episodes are split into two stories, except the first, you are getting 17 different stories.

After destroying his home planet, the Tall Ones trick Zim by sending him on a "secret mission." Outfitted with nifty, alien gadgets and an innocently stupid robot, Gir, Zim sets out to Conquer Earth. If only that pesky Dib wasn't always there to stop him!
