Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Quiet Please Is The Best Series of all times!
Review: Although there have been many Old Time Radio programs before + since Quiet, Please that were way more popular (Suspense, Jack Benny, The Shadow etc.) than it, today, it stands as the most creative, original, and scary Old Radio series of all time. Each episode is dreamy, and surreal, terrificly written by Wyllis Cooper, and magnificently acted by Ernest Chappel. Some episodes are so great, you sit dumbfounded after listening to them, like "Whence Came You?", "The Thing On The Fourble Board,
"Northern Lights", "Let The Lilies Consider", and the haunting "Shadow of the Wings".
So I hope you enjoy this unique set of Quiet Please.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: An excellent collection of an outstanding series.
Review: These stories are not for the mediocre soul or the atrophied imagination. "Quiet Please" was created by Wyllis Cooper, who also created another classic series called, "Lights Out" which lasted from the 30s through about 1950.

While "Quiet, Please" never amassed a huge audience during its broadcast run, it has been finding a following among collectors and the people who happened to be standing around when these programs were played and stayed to listen and got hooked.

There is little or no blood and gore, Cooper was more interested in drawing the listener into a dream. If you are willing to meet him halfway, he (that is Cooper, and Ernest Chappel, the lead player for the entire series, the cast and the organist) will take you places you never knew existed and will never forget.
