Gentle Ben: Season 1

"Gentle Ben" is by far one of the very best TV shows that's ever been made.It's such a fun, unique, underrated, adventurous and spectacular TV series and it has such beautiful scenery too.Dennis Weaver was perfect in the role of the Florida Everglades Wildlife Officer named Tom Wedloe.Beth Brickell was perfect in the role of Ellen Wedloe.Clint Howard was perfect in the role of Mark Wedloe.In this television series, Clint Howard's character had a lovable and tame black bear named Ben as a pet.Such a large variety of animals are seen in both seasons of this classic television series.All 28 episodes from Season One are presented in uncut and unedited form on this 4-disc set.All 28 episodes from Season One have running times of over 25 minutes each on this DVD release.The first season of this classic TV Series originally aired on CBS from September 10, 1967 until March 24, 1968.The video quality is good and the audio quality is good too.The packaging that CBS/Paramount used for Gentle Ben: Season One is perfect.Season One is stored in a plastic DVD case that holds all four discs.None of the discs share the same side of any of the disc holding trays and none of the discs overlap any of the discs either.Notable guest stars from Season 1 were Bob Gibson of the St. Louis Cardinals, Albert Salmi, Arthur Roberts, Bruce Gordon,Burt Reynolds, Claire Wilcox, Harry Bellaver, Howard Da Silva, Jay Silverheels, Juanita Moore, Murvyn Vye, Pat Hingle,Ron Howard, Simon Oakland, Slim Pickens, Strother Martin, Stuart Erwin, Tom Poston and William Windom.

Good wholesome family entertainment. No references to sex, no cuss words or hints of nudity. These are good, well written stories from a time when television was worth turning on. Gentle Ben is highly recommended.

It is a nice show and this is very well for the youngsters, there should be more like this instead of all that violence we see nowadays

We don't watch network TV at my house because of the inappropriate, or scary commercials at all hours. So I carefully select DVDs for my children to watch. Gentle Ben is definitely family friendly! If your family likes nature and positive role models with good moral lessons, you will like Gentle Ben. The boy on the show speaks to his parents and all adults in a respectful manner. The show is set in FL in the Everglades in the late 1960s. In each episode, the boy gets into some kind of trouble and his pet black bear, Ben, saves him. It's very similar to "Lassie" or "Flipper". My 8 year old can't get enough of Gentle Ben!

Gentle Ben is a favorite of mine because some of the best actors star in it. Dennis Weaver is and all time favorite of mine. He does a fine job in anything he plays in. It is in a location that is beautiful and shows some of the best shots of natural habitat. It is a pleasure to watch little animals scurry around and watch the waterfowl. I love the air boats. Little Mark sure is a fine boy and sure loves Ben his bear. it is a series for children and the whole family. It is clean and decent and that's more than we can say for some others/

Gentle Ben is great for kids especially. But I am an adult and love it also! Ben is awesome. Not every episode is centered on the bear Ben, though. But every episode has a moral lesson and is entertaining. Will watch these probably every year. love it. I liked season 1 better than season 2, but both are good.

I loved it. Wholesome.

I remember this show as a child mostly because of Dennis Weaver ,(Gunsmoke) but also that way cool airboat. also their friend's swamp buggie gets kudos from me being as I am "Mechanically enclined", these things appeal to me . The show itself is very much like Flipper but with a bear! If you like Flipper , or airboats you'll probably like this show as well.

My class read the book and LOVED the classic. Though the t.v. series does not follow the book, the students watched the first episode . . . I was surprised, they REALLY enjoyed it.

Good
