Editorial Review:

Product Description:
A clown with a heart of gold, Red Skelton's mission in life was to make people laugh. A first-class comedian, Skelton won the world over with his legendary alter-egos including Junior the Mean Widdle Kid (famous for the expression, "I dood it"); country bumpkin Clem Kadiddlehopper; clown hobo Freddie the Freeloader; con man San Fernando Red; henpecked husband George Appleby; drunkard Willie Lump Lump; boxer Cauliflower McPugg; and the not-so-honest lawman, Sheriff Deadeye. These characters and more made appearances on his popular television series The Red Skelton Show--the second longest running TV show in history at twenty years of broadcasting. For the duration of this time, Skelton's series maintained top ten and top twenty ratings and won several awards. Packed with celebrity guests, pratfalls, pranks, and silly sketches, The Red Skelton Show continues to delight audiences time and time again, proving that Red Skelton is indeed "America's favorite funnyman."

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Still the best !
For us who remember this wonderful man, what can i say but, he is still the best to watch. Slapstick is so funny,,,there is no violence or cussing or sex,,,just an exceptionally talented man who could make anyone and everyone laugh. His characters are a great work of imagination !! This is real tv and comedy at its best. Yeah its old,,,but it sure is a breath of fresh air from what is going on today. Try it,,,you will love it.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This was a gift
I bought this for my Mom and Dad. She called me a few days later and told me she really enjoyed it. I'll probably buy other similar items now.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Not as funny as I thought it would be.
I know there are many, many more episodes of Red Skelton that were much funnier than the ones they put on this dvd. I was really disappointed in the ones that were selected for this package. I gave it to my dad for a gift, and watched it with him. Some of them were okay, but I know Red Skelton is hilarious, but they didn't do his show justice on this dvd package.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - good
My DVD came late, too late for a xmas gift, but it was resent so the effort was definately there. It is a gift for V Day now so I don't know what shape it is in yet, though the cover looks fine.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Ageless Skelton
Even growing up in Australia when we were restricted in a lot of the early TV programs, we still yearned for the 'older' comedians, Red Skelton being one of them. Although these discs have been edited, there is still the classic comedy of the man and his guests, the spontaneous 'ad-libs' which had my family and myself crying with laughter. I recommend it to others.
