1.0 out of 5 stars
This show has now been ruined by Paramount, October 24, 2008
This review is from: My Three Sons - Season One vols. 1 - 2 (DVD)
The early seasons of this show were so good that I would have paid Paramount's price. But Paramount has no respect for a quality show like this, maybe because it clearly contrasts the garbage they create for TV and movies today. So they dumb it down, destroy the excellent work of many talented people, they have replaced the high quality sophisticated music with idiotic sound effects performed on a digital synthesizer. Whole scenes have been removed. Avoid this counterfeit release. Paramount is the #1 enemy of classic TV.
A review on this page that says the music is intact is wrong. The music has been replaced. Verify it at tv shows on dvd or dvd talk or home theater forum. I do not know why the reviewer is trying to mislead Amazon customers.

OH GOODIE! NOW WE CAN BUY BOTH VOLUMES OF THIS GARBAGE TOGETHER!, December 2, 2009
This review is from: My Three Sons - Season One vols. 1 - 2 (DVD)
I would like to state for the record, that I love this show and have been waiting for it's release to DVD for a very long time. The news of it's release made me very happy until I watched a few of the episodes.
The first thing I want to point out is you can find both volumes cheaper than they are listed here together! This 1/2 season set practice (which is an insult to fans) has got to stop! I mean really the studio's should be tickled pink that there is a buying audience for these old classics to begin with. Breaking the seasons into two or more volumes is a slap in the face!
To make matters worse the music has been changed and the episodes are edited! The music used for this release is so bad, it's completely un-watchable for anyone who remembers the original! What's the point of trying to preserve these shows if your not going to do it right!? The fan base for these shows aren't getting any younger and if the studio heads who put this junk together expect fans to be happy, they are sadly mistaken.
I love the show, but I have to say do not buy this sub-par garbage and send a message to these greedy slackers that we will not accept anything less than well transferred shows presented un-edited and with all original content intact!

Savy consumers: Just Say NO to CBS/Paramount!!!!, October 2, 2008
This review is from: My Three Sons - Season One vols. 1 - 2 (DVD)
All we have here is the bundling of My Three Sons: The First Season, Vol. 1 and My Three Sons - Season One, Vol. 2 at an even higher price than buying separate volumes! (Prices do fluctuate).
This is yet another American TV treasure that is being held hostage by CBS/Paramount. Now it appears that they are again stooping to another low by bastardizing the original music as with the initial release of The Fugitive - Season Two, Vol. 1! Check out the story on [...].
Query good people: Why can The Donna Reed Show: The Complete First Season be had in pristine order at a price of $34.99 and yet this mess offered from CBS/Paramount?
"My Three Sons" is classic TV at its finest. BUT, it is NOT an essential part of life to the point where CBS/Paramount is rewarded just because of our classic TV show desires. They don't deserve our hard earned money.
