The Magic School Bus Rides Again: The Complete First and Second Seasons (known officially as The Complete First Season, its production order season; this wiki uses the aired seasons for consistency) is a 2019 5-disc DVD and digital set featuring episodes from the fifth and sixth seasons (making up the fifth production season/first production season of Rides Again). The DVD version is only available in Canada, whereas in the rest of the world, this set is used for Rides Again on iTunes, Google Play, and Microsoft Movies and TV. It is the first home media release in Region 1 for The Magic School Bus Rides Again.
It was preceded by The Magic School Bus: Greatest Adventures (2000/2017) and followed by The Magic School Bus Rides Again: Blast Off! (2020).
The third/seventh season set was released in 2021. That disc includes Goldstealer, which was not released to digital platforms.

Trivia[]
- The DVD version of this set brings the French dub back to Region 1 releases, the last time it was available being the 2005 releases of The Magic School Bus: Human Body and The Magic School Bus: Catches a Wave. It is available in the Canadian Season 7 set as well, infamously known for being the only official way to watch “Goldstealer.”
- This is the first Rides Again DVD in Region 1.
- This is the final Region 1 Magic School Bus DVD to release in the 2010s, and the only Rides Again DVD to release in its decade of origin. This is the first time a MSB show’s VHS or DVD released in its decade of origin since the standalone releases for “Spins a Web,” “Butterfly and the Bog Beast,” and “In a Beehive” in 1999.
- This is the first time since the standalone VHS releases for “Getting Energized” and “Out of This World” in which a physical release was released during the current MSB show’s run. This is also the first time this happened on DVD. This is true for the majority of Region 1 Rides Again DVDs, as all Rides Again DVDs before the N Circle Season 2 set (2022) were released during the show’s 2017–21 run.
- The Netflix logo and the “A Netflix Original [Series]” byline featuring the Bus is left intact on these DVDs. This is also true for the show’s digital releases, the American Rides Again DVDs, the airings of the 2010s seasons on qubo and the full series on Knowledge Kids, and The Complete Third Season.
