Summary: She's Come to DVD After All
Review: One of the classic sit-coms comes to DVD in this wonderful season set.Mary Richards is trying to start over in a new town. Thanks to her friend Phyllis, she's found an apartment in Minneapolis. Soon, she's got a job as associate producer for the evening news at WJM. And between the two, she's got a wonderful support system that will help her through anything. And we get to enjoy the laughs. I'd forgotten just how much I loved this show until I got the set. It was like reuniting with old friends. Season 1 is definitely a beginning, however, as the writers begin to explore the characters. Still, there are some classic episodes here, including "Love is All Around," "Support Your Local Mother," "TouLouse-Lautrec is One of My Favorite Artists," "Assistant Wanted, Female," "Second-Story Story," and "We Closed in Minneapolis" to name a few. The best part of this show is that the humor stems from the characters. A lesser cast wouldn't be able to pull off some of the material, but this cast brings laughs a plenty. The set has some interesting extras. The best is the 87 minute documentary about the creation of the series. The audio commentaries on three episodes are ok, but I didn't find them super interesting. Of course, the main reason to get the set is the episodes themselves. Here's they've been preserved with wonderful picture clarity and sound. I doubt they've ever looked better. Each episode has 10 chapter breaks in it, with the credits getting their own chapters. This makes it easy to find a certain scene or get straight to the episode. A play all feature would have been nice, but it's not completely necessary. While not the best this show has to offer, the first season has so many wonderful moments it's hard to complain. Any fan of classic TV will want this in their collection. It's well worth it.

Summary: Please release the second season on DVD!
Review: This DVD set is a great buy and anyone who liked the show will love this! The DVD looks and sounds wonderful. I watched an MTM show from the first season the other day on TV Land and was surprised at how awful the quality is on TV and how much was cut out from the original episode. I hope that 20th Century Fox decides to release the second season (and third and fourth, etc.) because it would be a loss to everyone that is a fan of this great show.

Summary: OUSTANDING!
Review: I use to watch Mary Tyler Moore on TV Land, but at times it was off the air, or on soo late. With this, I can watch it at any time. It's also great to see it in such great detail.
Some say the laugh bit can't be turned off.
Maybe it can't, but I don't mind.
Overall, it's great to see Mary Tyler Moore again, and in broadcast order! To me, broadcast order is the best!
I want to see Dick Van Dyke as well!

Summary: START AN EMAIL CAMPAIGN !!
Review: If what "A Viewer" from Arlington TX says is correct, and 20th Century Fox is thinking about not releasing more Mary Tyler Moore Show DVD sets, something's GOT to be done. The first box set is too wonderful for the rest of the seasons to not be released. I would like to know if anybody has an email address to write to?

Summary: Superb Box Set
Review: I must wholeheartedly agree with those who have praised this box set. It is wonderful! I grew up with the show and watching it really warms my heart. The writing and the acting are both excellent. Buy this set! I can't wait for the 2nd set (and the rest)--Thank you FOX!

Summary: There is a reason these shows are still popular
Review: They are great. In fact, MTM and similar programs are the reason why people will actually watch TVLand and Nick@Nite and not care that they are reruns. Funny, warm, well-written. Watching MTM is like eating comfort food when you're hung over - feels so good! This set is excellent - transfers are clean and clear, sound is pristine, lots of fun extra's and great packaging. Oh yeah - and reasonably priced. You have to have this. Hit the "add to shopping cart" button.

Summary: They won't release season 2 if you don't buy this
Review: A recent online chat with a 20th Century Fox representative included this disturbing news:
"I also think we need to look at things like The Mary Tyler Moore show which was a disappointment to us in terms of the units that sold. It was a great product but people didn't buy it! Should we have done a 'Best-of-MTM' set instead? I don't know the answer to that yet. MTM was a disappointment to us so we are looking at older TV shows with a bit more caution than we were before." What can you do? Tell your friends, co-workers, neighbors ... ANYBODY who likes MTM and has been on-the-fence about buying this DVD set, TO BUY IT. Only then will 20th Century Fox release the other seasons.

Summary: AMAZING DVD set
Review: The show itself needs no review. It's definitely one of the top 5 sit-coms ever. But I stopped watching the reruns a couple of years ago when the syndicated episodes became butchered beyond belief in the name of more commercial time. This DVD box set is INCREDIBLE - great packaging, great extra features... but the best of all is that every episode is complete as originally broadcast. The picture quality is utterly amazing as well. KUDOSx1000 to everyone involved in the whole DVD project. I see that the second season is coming out in March - CAN'T WAIT!!! The second season is when the show started to REALLY kick in.
