Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Lucy Show DVD ... Lucille Ball... Excellent Quality
Review: An excellent demonstation of Lucille Ball's abilities. Some of the best episodes from The Lucy Show. It is in general an excellent series. Highly Recommended. 5 Stars. A+

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: I'll second the "poor quality" complaint...
Review: I was also a bit disappointed in the quality of this DVD. DVDs are supposed to be of the best quality in picture and sound. Mine looks a little fuzzy and washed out - like it was recorded on VHS off the TV, and yes, mine skips in some spots, also. The fact that this show originally aired in the '60s is no excuse. I've got VHS tapes of The Lucy Show which are better quality than this DVD. My husband is collecting the DVDs of the classic Star Trek episodes, and the picture and sound quality of those is excellent - better even than the VHS tapes he has of Star Trek: The Next Generation, which aired roughly 30 years after the classic series aired. If a DVD company (or whoever makes the DVDs - I don't know) can go through the trouble of making sure that the DVDs of the classic Star Trek series are of excellent quality, then they *could* do the same for The Lucy Show, no? Getting good quality film, restoration, etc. It is possible to enjoy if you put the poor quality aside, so I gave this DVD 2 stars.

If good quality isn't too important to you, you might be interested - The price isn't all that high compared to other DVDs, which probably reflects the poor quality. However, if it is of high importance to you, I'd skip over this one...

Review: I was also a bit disappointed when I saw the poor quality of the picture in this DVD. It looks like it was recorded off the TV. It looks a little fuzzy and washed out if you ask me. Also what the other customer said about skipping, mine does that too.

However, it's still possible to enjoy if you put the poor quality aside, so I gave it 3 stars.

If picture quality isn't that important to you, then you might be interested. If picture quality is of high importance to you, however, I would probably skip to the next one...

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Not a good choice of episodes
Review: Not as good as I Love Lucy these four episodes of her later show don't do Lucy justice. Another thing is the quality. DVD's are supposed to be of high quality but they used a very bad film copy when they made this. It even jumps in a couple places! I'm taking mine back to the store.
