Summary: Content fine but,
Review: I will not buy any more of these, I Love Lucy as much as the next guy -- even more -- but I won't be nickled and dimed at a four episode a disc rate. Everyone else can release season by season. This is just stupid. Even a "club" will send you the next one when it comes in. To much $$ and effort here. Do us a favor and follow the standards other TV sets have started. Go season by season. You'll probably sell a lot more!

Summary: bottom line is the dollar
Review: In this decade, every episode of "I Love Lucy" will be celebrating its 50th Anniversary. Every episode is still funny as funny as when they first aired. The shows are good. The shows are wholesome. They are healing and warm and will make you feel good. Buy them on VHS or DVD today.

Summary: bottom line is the dollar
Review: It costs less to make a dvd then to make a vhs, and at four episodes a dvd, you are getting jipped. I agree with the one who said "being nickel and dimed to death." It is true!

179 episodes breaks down into 45 dvds, averaged at $12 a dvd that is $540. I don't have the space to store 45 dvds on Lucy alone; I do have other movies I would like to own. The price is also a little steep. I would rather have it season by season, and at $50 a season, that is still only $300. That is a better deal for storage and value.

As long as people continue to spend the money, we will never see a decent amount of Lucy episodes on a decent priced dvd.

We need to stand up as consumers and stop giving in to the studios by buying these overpriced dvds.

It appears that the diehards are going to kill it for everyone. I think that is sad. Lucy would have wanted more people to enjoy her show on dvd.
