1.0 out of 5 stars "Make Room for Dick Van Dyke", January 17, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Dick Van Dyke Show [VHS] (VHS Tape)

There is very little to criticize about any of the classic episodes of the "Dick Van Dyke" show, and the episodes represented here are no exception. However, out of 10 episodes on 5 tapes, only 6 are Dick Van Dyke's. The fourremaining are episodes of "Make Room for Daddy". This is not to say that the classic Danny Thomas shows are not enjoyable; merely that they don't belong on what is advertised as a "Dick Van Dyke Show" collection. In addition, the sound and picture quality of the episodes (both shows) leave much to be desired. If you're a fan of both shows and don't mind the poor quality of the recordings, then you might find this collection acceptable, but my guess is that you'd be better off taping them from conventional television reruns.

1.0 out of 5 stars Misleading Content, December 16, 1999

By 

Steven C Corum (Cypress, California) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Dick Van Dyke Show [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The title of the set is "The Dick Van Dyke Show", but 4 of the 10 episodes aren't from the Dick Van Dyke show. There are only two episodes per tape (rather skimpy content) and on tapes 2 through 5, one is from Dick Van Dyke, the other's from "Make Room for Daddy" with Danny Thomas. With 5 tapes in the set (the only information available), I sort of assumed 15 or 20 episodes and certainly didn't expect some other show. This is not a recommended buy if you really want a significant portion of Dick Van Dyke episodes.

3.0 out of 5 stars A Dick Van Dyke Show Fan, April 6, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Dick Van Dyke Show [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This set includes some good episodes: The Night the Roof Fell In, Bank Book 6565696, Hustling the Hustler, Give Me Your Walls, A Man's Teeth are Not His Own, and Never Name A Duck. The reason I rated it as only three stars is because although there are 5 videos in this set, there are only 6 episodes of The Dick Van Dyke Show. There are also 4 episodes of a show with Danny Thomas called Life With Danny. I did not find that show very amusing, and I'm disappointed that there are almost as many of those shows as there are of The Dick Van Dyke Show, which is what I bought the set for.
