Every episode And six "personal favorite" collections by each of the members which aired a few years ago on A&E, a documentary of pre-Python work by each of the boys (which sounds very cool, to me at least), a DVD of live Python footage (not sure from where), and another new documentary about their success in America.

Boxsets have to contain a great deal more that the original programmes/films to be considered great. There has to be sufficient extras to justify buying it, rather than just copying your old videos to disk. Commentaries, deleted scenes, documentaries etc cannot be too difficult or expensive to produce.

DVDs of Red Dwarf, the League of Gentlemen, the Simpsons and Futurama have all had a great deal of effort piled into them. The producers of Star Trek on the other hand delight in flogging 'same again' at high prices.
 
And on a red dwarf note, it appears that the superlative series 1-6 are not available as a single set, only 1-4 and then the execrable 7/8 combined with 5 and 6. A poor attempt to make people buy the shite last two..
