Review: This series is the drek of classic television. If you were an alien and you landed on Earth, you would think all television made before 1980 was gold. Judging by the reviews here I can see people seem to enjoy this show and thats fine, but FIVE STARS?? All in the Family, Mash, Twilight Zone, and very few others are truly five stars, I think people need to face that. Laverne & Shirley, Soap, Maude and many many spin offs of the 70's are simply and utterly terrible. I wouldn't go so far to say that about L&S, it does have a sort of working class charm but it is and always will be second rate, no make that third. Boo Boo Kitty, indeed.

Review: When I was 12, Laverne and Shirley was my favorite show! Never missed an episode and would often write my own episodes for my friends and I to enact.

I always watched the reruns and tried to tape episodes when I could, so when this was released on DVD, I had to have it.

Each episode, for me, anyway, is a trip down memory lane. But it also showcases the outstanding comedic talents of Penny Marshall and Cindy Williams. They were as good as Lucy. I spent an evening belly laughing and still pop it in when I have had a rotten day and need a chuckle!

This is a great set for the major fan, but also a good way to introduce the latest generation to this great show!
