I never get tired of watching Kate & Allie. It was difficult to find in reruns (for some reason) and so I am very glad to be able to pop in a DVD and watch it whenever I like. As a New Yorker, I also like seeing the opening scenes of Kate & Allie walking around the city and talking. By the way, it is clearly typed as Susan Saint James on each of the DVD collections and not Susan St. James, as suggested by another reviewer here. P.S. Jane Curtin is probably the funniest actress since Carol Burnett, my other favorite.

I loved watching this show as a kid and it's even better now. I can't wait for the fifth season!

I really purchased this show for only about 30 to 45 seconds(separate story of no interest to anyone). However I did watch all the dvds because I did enjoy the show. I think shows such as this one holds up very well over time. The actors were all very good, story lines were sometimes very forced(how many times can you have single women trying to find a husband to be written differently)and having children and their problems to be found interesting.
Shows like this come down to the characters as played by the actors, which in this case does make this show.
If the program has not be seen before I think anyone will enjoy these dvds. If you remember seeing the show then you will be a person who enjoyed the actors and characters and will enjoy seeing it again. The purchase price was very important for me and was in the end a good buy.
The two leading actress' are very good and the remaining cast all do a very good job.

Well, Kate & Allie is one of the BEST of the CBS types, of comedy series. The script writing is smart, but not self-indulgent .. and Jane Curtin and Susan St. James form a FINE, comedy-type of (female) protagonists. .. Moreover, the plots are fairly-original, and there is .. still .. and enduring quality .. to the entire series .. such as it was. (IMHO, of course!)

can not wait til all the shows from back in the day are out on dvd
