5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, engaging series about vet's life in 30's England, February 3, 1999
By B. Brooks "brandonio" (Wellington, New Zealand) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This inspiring series I have seen literally dozens of times over the past 15 years. I am now a vet but began watching these shows when I was in high school. The actors do an outstanding job of bringing James Herriot's (Alf Wight) stories to life and it is hard not to get wrapped up in them. You'll find yourself watching episode after episode because they play like a book that you just can't put down! Great mix of how the characters in Herriot's life grow and change with his professional triumphs and tribulations. The earliest episodes - in this set - have the best cast of actors and are the most endearing. The British accents/speed of speech will take some getting used to, but it's only a minor hurdle. I reach for these when I need a lift or a good laugh, especially on a rainy day. Enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the most well rounded book adaptations ever ..., June 8, 2000
By A Customer
Years ago I ran across this series on PBS, and have been amazed that ever since their creation by the BBC in the mid-seventies this interpretation of the James Harriot novels hasn't lost any appeal. The heart felt stories of a young man in pre-WW II Britain attempting to become vetrinarian during a depression weighs well due to the vibrant characters depicted by brilliant actors, the scope of human experience, and the drama of life in harsh times and harsh environments. Herein is some of the finest family entertainment ever crafted for the television audience, and an authentic peek into a bygone life style in simpler times. Probably one of the most charismatic moments in television history is the final sequence of the brilliant final episode when the three vets must 'draw straws' to choose who will be the unlucky member to correct a misplaced calf bed and miss their celebratory gathering in Skeldale House. These 13 'hour long' episodes will never fail any viewer, and will hook you into the following couple series which are JUST AS GOOD as the first. Words will never convey just how excellent this series really is....you'll just have to buy it...NOW!

5.0 out of 5 stars A must for Herriott fans, September 1, 1999
By A Customer
As with other reviewers, I can't wait until the rest of the series is available. I even looked at the new Herriott museum in Thirsk, with only a few titles and none for U.S. vcrs. These are in my mind some of the best of the series, the early episodes and key ones showing James coming to Yorkshire, early experiences, dating and then marriage.

I second, or is it third, the question as to where the remaining episodes are. Amazon would do well to offer these to All Creatures devotees!

My only comment is to ask where the remaining episodes are. As I recall, there were aprox. 54 total.
