My Kind of Knucklehead
When I see a classic TV series so good that I can watch the episodes over and over, it merits a review. I've watched the entire series twice and am ready to go another round anytime. Jim Nabors' Gomer Pyle series fills many hours with great joy and laughs. Not only do I enjoy Jim Nabors and Frank Sutton, but a lot of favorite, classic stars have guest appearances throughout the series: Carol Burnett (2), "Andy Taylor, Aunt Bea, Opie Taylor," Ruta Lee, Don Rickles, Allan Melvin (who was not household name but in so many classic TV shows you will immediately recognize him), and more. The Carol Burnett episodes are hilarious. Any surprise? I have only two negative issues with the series: Lou Anne's southern accent was so over-exaggerated, it makes my Deep South eyes roll (but her clothes were awesome); and some of the plots in the later seasons remind me of plots from the Andy Griffith Show. Were they running out of material? Even so, these are minor, minor issues. I adore the...
CLASSIC SERIES
I remembered this show when i was kid. Now looking back it is actually better. I really enjoyed it and it is very funny. You can't go wrong with this price for all 5 seasons complete. The series is in demand, since it sold well and all the seasons were issued in short order unlike many of the other shows. Get it while all 5 are available together.
Great DVD for the family
I love seeing these Gomer Pyle DVD's. I watched this show when I was little and now my daughters can enjoy them. I wish more shows like this were on TV today.
