1- The timing here reflects the timing for the introductions on these Season 5 episodes. Other seasons also have Episode Introductions.
2- This release allows you to watch the scenes alone or via seamless branching during the episode.
3- This is the original release of the season on DVD. In addition to the "Collector's Edition" printed on the bottom of the outer slipcover, you can also distinguish it from later releases by the fact that it is a 6 DVD set.
4- Additional features for other seasons can also be found on this release. For a complete list see the entry for this specific title.
5- This release lacks the bonus DVD that collects some of the features into one location (Deleted Scenes, International Clips, etc.) but those features are still accessible via the individual episode sub-menus.
6- The Season 5 DVD releases lack the audio commentary for both the "Patient X" and the "The Red and The Black" episodes.
7- The audio commentary for both the "Patient X" and the "The Red and The Black" episodes that do not appear on the Season 5 DVD releases are found on this release, but since this release is made up of scattered episodes from various seasons, it lacks any of the other audio commentaries found on the Season 5 DVD releases.
8- This feature also appears on some releases of Season 8.

NOTES:
If you are a fan of the show you are going to want to pick up the Complete Series (there is no bonus disc in the complete series set so all the individual seasons are equal to the Complete Series) as it collects all features that were previously released across the various seasons. The exceptions to this are the Series Trailer found on the Revelations DVD and the Existence Game found on the Season 8 DVD releases (which may or may not still work). If those feature are important to you you will need those DVDs as well. See the footnotes above for what features appear on what specific season.
