Best of the Beverly Hillbillies

I remember when I was a kid how funny this show was. As you get older, some things you thought were GREAT are no longer. This series is timeless. I laugh every bit as hard as I did in the past and every show begins with the theme song. This is one of the all time funniest shows ever and you won't be disappointed.

After all this time I finally watched this part of the first season I fell asleep while watching It must have played for hours. I thought It was just various episodes but I think It all 4 seasons starting from the first season. This also has the original theme Song starting from I think the 3rd episode.

This dvd is well worth the money. But be warned that the episode Pygmalion and Elly is not on the dvd. Must be a defect when dvd was pressed that that episode did not transfer onto disk. Other than that, this dvd will deliver hours of laughter!!

I gave this as a gift to a Millennial child of a friend, and she loves it!

Good family fun that leaves you wanting more! The only negative was not in the dvd but the fact the case arrived damaged. Other than that no complaints..

Given the level of humor, I wonder why I loved ths show and why I still can watch it with some amusement. Perhaps it's because the plots, so incredibly obvious, were based upon the simple premise that the hillbilly's did not know modern civilization. So, we thought ourselves better than them(at least). Of course, the show had a subtle message...ok, they have a lot to learn, but they also had a heart and a sincerety to them that was endearing and rock solid. So, in the end, could we depend upon them to show character or the modern day(for the time) Angelenos that they met?This collection was so inexpensive for me to get, less than $8 for over 1,000 minutes of shows, that I couldn't refuse.

I bought this set because of the dollar value to episodes. There are quite a few episodes I had never seen before. The quality of the transfer to dvd isn't as good as desired. But then maybe the quality of the filming wasn't so great back then, either. Anyway, there were two episodes on disc one that wouldn't play. Not too bad for forty episodes.

all my favorite episodes are here!including the pilot-the clampetts strike oil!from the first episode to the last,comedy at it`s best!great dvd collection!

merci

Generally when you go back to old favourites from when you were younger, you're often disappointed by the fact that you grow out of things, or they don't age well. The Beverly Hillbillies is an exception, especially here in this set from Mill Creek, which is excellent value, and is for fans of this still - hilarious - US culture clash tv comedy from the sixties. It contains forty episodes, including the very first episode "The Clampetts Strike Oil" and a rare christmas tale, spread over four discs, roughly ten episodes a disc. Unlike other public domain editions, this version has clear sound and crisp picture clarity and comes complete with the original theme music and lyrics so beloved of fans. For less than six pounds, including postage from US based marketplace sellers, it's a steal. If you enjoy quality tv comedy, or just get by on the nostalgia of past favourites, and don't mind the fact that they are in black and white, grab a copy before it sells out. Hours of enjoyment for the family, and the show bears repeated viewings, so one to treasure. The ending to the pilot episode had me laughing to myself for days afterwards.

Put simply - it does not get any better than this - absolutely top drawer and at the price charged a fantastic bargain - you will love it

THIS IS THE BEST VALUE FOR DOLLAR DVD SET I EVER BOUGHT! SO MANY GREAT OLD B/W SHOWS. 40 EPISODES AND OVER 25 HOURS. 4 DISC SET, BUYING THIS SET WAS LIKE STRIKING OIL!

First, the title of the DVD "Best of the Beverly Hillbillies" is a misnomer. When we ordered the 40 episode set in 4 dvds we did not expect it to be the first 40 episodes filmed, but the "best" of the over 200 episodes produced. Secondly, though we have only viewed disc 1 and part of disc 2, we have found the quality of three episodes poor. Two had video quality issues and another did not have voice/picture coordination. We are seriously thinking of returning the set for refund.
