Summary: The Laughs Start Winding Down
Review: Sanford and Son is a classic television series that I can always count on for a good laugh and I am glad that the series has made it's way to DVD. If you are just now starting your Sanford and Son DVD collection I suggest that you buy them in this order-Season 2, Season 3, Season 1 and then Season 4. Seasons 2 and 3 are hilarious. Season 4 has good episodes like the Grady led "Fred's Treasure Garden," "Sanford and Niece," "The Headache" and a few other memorable episodes.

It is clear as you get towards the end of the season that the laughs are winding down, most evident in episodes like "The Masquerade Party," when Fred and friends go on a game show to win Lamont a present. The fact that Lamont is pouting like a 10 year old that their are no presents, liquor or decorations after pop promised and Fred going through such extremes to get a grown man a present....it just seems like the writers were running out of things to do. But this is a must have to complete your Sanford collection, if you are a collector. But if you are going strictly for laughs check out seasons 2 and 3 first.

Summary: Show Starts Getting Ridiculous With This Season
Review: The first two discs of this set have some great episodes. The third disc has maybe one or two good ones at the most, but I can't really name a single one. The Grady episodes are by far the best. "Fred's Treasure Garden" and "Once A Thief" (both Grady episodes) are true classics. The third disc has some ludicrous episodes such as Fred going on a game show in one. In another episode Fred buys a big dumb professional fighter. We get to see this fighter working out and skipping rope throughout the show. How exciting. In "The Headache," also on disc three, Lamont goes to a psychiatrist, who tells him that he "hates his father." In the "Older Woman," Lamont falls in love with and plans to marry a woman ten years older. However, his plans fall flat when the woman refuses and says that the differences in their ages would cause problems. "The Stung," which is probably the best episode on disc three, involves Fred inviting his professional gambler friend to join in on one of Lamont's group's weekly games. Pretending to be a novice player, the expert quickly takes everyone's money. Fred later tells them of his clever scheme and promises that Al will return all the cash. Al, however, has disappeared and doesn't return with the money until later. In the meantime "Arms," a huge guy who was one of the losing players, constantly threatens violence if he doesn't get his money. He even tears Fred's door off the hinges.
In "The Family Man" everyone just complains about a tasteless painting that Grady bought and hung over the fireplace. The whole feel of this episode is like you are watching some other TV show because the settings are mostly at Grady's daughter's Westwood house.

Summary: The best it will ever be
Review: This is the best because the show is good and all the dvd's since the first season was the best. Sanford and Son is the best show in the 70's and is now!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: My all-time Favorite TV SHOW!
Review: what can i say about this show? alot of my views on the world&whatnot were influenced by Fred. G.Sanford.the Show was never afraid to deal with various topics&also poked fun at it's own self many a time.Redd Foxx was Missed early on.now Witman Mayo(Grady) was good but enough to run the Sanford Arms.but never the less all things come back together on this show.Props to the Cast&Crew.this show is a Classic&Will Never lose it's edge.these Shows are 30 years old but are Fresher than most of what you view today&also more Honest in tone&feeling as well.Props to the Genius of Redd Foxx.RIP to Him,WhitMan Mayo,Lawanda Page&also to Bubba.Props to Demond Wilson for Being a Versatile Entertainer as well.
