Why didn't I buy this sooner? This is exactly what I wanted!,
By Retro_Saiyan (Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Super Circus: Volume 1 (DVD)
Yes, it's slightly politically incorrect and corny, but that's why I love it! Political correctness is overrated. This 1950's kids show is awesome, and I wasn't even alive when it aired. Why didn't Nick revive this? Plus, there is the THRILL of 1950's Live TV; No chance for retakes! Picture quality varies but is mostly good for 1950's "kinescope recordings".
--Show Format-- A circus, with typical circus acts of the time. 3 clowns and Mary Hartline provide comic moments. --Extras-- 5 of the 6 episodes contain original commercials. --Negatives-- Your pretentious film snob "friends" will laugh at you. --Positives-- If you liked this 1950's show as a kid, it's still likely to charm you. --Overall-- If you like 1950's TV, or like the circus, then these 6 episodes are a bargain! Also includes that rare ABC-TV ID. Now, I can just hope Alpha Video releases "The Morey Amsterdam Show" or "I Remember (Mama)", then the fun will REALLY start! But still, this is solid fifties fun for Baby Boomers and those interested in early TV.

The Super Circus dvd is a great time capsule to a much simpler time on television.

This review is from: Super Circus: Volume 1 (DVD)
I have to admit I remember watching this when I was a kid. Fun to go back in time when they did live TV and all the mistakes were left in.Mary Hartline
what red-blooded boy did not remember her with her long blonde hair and drum majorette outfit. The circus acts were very good,another neat thing lost somewhere. Great for a trip back in time and neato stuff to watch with your kids or grandkids, Enjoy!
