Only 3 stars because these don't hold up real well, and your kids will probably think it's lame.

I grew up watching all these shows, from Hr to the Lost Saucer, and the rest of them I think Land Of The Lost was my favorite, and still is. This Dvd has all the Pilot episodes of all the S&M shows. These brought back such great memories, of me getting up on those very early Saturday mornings, with cereal bowl and spoon in hand,sitting in front of the old RCA console tv....

The first episode of a group of totally bizarre kids' TV shows that I grew up with. Nice that there's a "play all" option, so you can have a weird visual on your big-screen TV in the background of your psychedelic party.

This video has brought back so many memories from when I was a young child. I now have a young boy who is really into pirates and it happened to be that the episodes that this video has on it has to do with pirates, so he has also really enjoyed watching with me. I ordered this for Christmas and it was delivered within an exceptional time frame. I will definately continue to order through Amazon

I just got this dvd in the mail. I was like a kid running to get the mail every day! It was worth it! A great introduction dvd to Sid and Marty Krofft!

Wow! What a blast from the past! It's nice to know so many of us grew up the very same way watching these wonderful shows on Saturday mornings. I loved all of Sid & Marty's stuff. Land of The Lost was quite a deep show for kids even back then and all the shows were very innovative for their time. Such innocence is sadly lost today so it's nice to re-live these jewels from a more gentle time. It's also nice to see how these series began their journey. I'd forgotten it's been so long. I particularly liked Lost Saucer and wish the entire series would become available on DVD sometime. The "Argos" episode was my favorite. Thank you Amazon and Sid & Marty for making these treasured pieces of our childhood available for us to relish in our nostalgia like it was the 70's again!!

What we have in the Sid and Marty Kroft Television Series like H.R. Pufnstuf,Lidsville,The Bugaloos and Sigmund and The Sea Monster are some of the classic Television series that we all grew up with.Often overlooked Sid and Marty Kroft gave Kids clean and immaginitive shows that parents did not have to worry about kids watching(take note I said parents-today we have mothers and fathers but very few parents.Its a shame that shows like this are not around today but instead kids are propped down in front of a game boy with no sense of immagination.Regardless The World Of Sid & Marty Kroft are classics never to be done again.

The Kroffts are the Masters. Funny most of the buyers get these to watch themselves, instead of their kids. It is a tribute to the Krofft brothers that 30, 40, and 50 something people buy these shows of theirs to still watch as adults. I wish their other shows were on DVD as well, like Lost Saucer, Electra Woman and Dyna Girl, etc.

This video is absolutely fantastic. great memories came back to me. My 4 year old twins love it! Just as much as I did. Its one of their favorite videos. They love the old stuff and so did my older children. We have the complete land of the lost series and this one and my next goal is to get the electric company and the new zoo revue. I am amazed at how much my children love it as much as I did and prefer these to today's shows. Definately would be a good investment.

Ahhhhh to be young again! This brought me right back to my childhood. The songs, the characters, the smiles. It's a wonderful collection of all that was good in the world to a kid in the 70's.
