Well, we loved the first 2 seasons, but we were surprised to find ourselves disappointed by the 3rd season of the Dick Van Dyke Show. They repeat the Laura jealous of Rob/Rob jealous of Laura theme way too often. There were so many other themes and angles they could have pursued and often did in earlier shows. Rob and Laura's son is hardly ever included in an episode. And since we think of this as a family show we were surprised at how many darker themes were addressed (wife-stealing, husband-stealing, divorce, etc). The episode where Laura meets an old flame, now a priest, had a very nice and surprising ending, when she realized that the "love poetry" he had sent her many years before had not been written with her in mind, but rather God. Still, before we could get to that touching ending we had to endure more of the ho-hum Rob jealous of Laura theme. I still think we'll try the 4th season, but we regret the missed opportunities of the 3rd.

I've loved the Dick Van Dyke Show for as long as I can remember. Back when I was a child it was a staple for us at home. Considering the show began the year I was born it means that I primarily remember the reruns but that doesn't matter. This TV show remains as funny now as it was then. It just goes to show creative genius lives on no matter what.
As far as the dvds in this collection, they're brilliantly done, clean and clear. I watched all 30+ episodes of season one over a weekend and will begin season 2 next weekend. I purchased all five seasons and so far it is turning out to be a wonderful experience. Don't miss out, these are terrific!

probably the magnum opus of the series. crisp writing, hilarious one-liners, particularly by morey amsterdam, everything came together for this series.

Since I already know what is on season three there were no surprises. The Dick Van Dyke show is definitely a classic. It's always funny and entertaining.

It is a very humorous show! I like the couple that still sees romance in one another's eyes everyday . There is modesty being displayed in the show as well. Buddy and Sally still know how to crack a person up with their ways of show business. It is a thumps up to me as far as clean entertainment!
