The best episodes of season one are: (Don't worry, I won't give away the ending)They are:
1. "The Creeper" A woman lives in fear of a murderer who is terrorizing the neighborhood.
2. "Breakdown" An executive driving from Florida to New York is paralyzed in a car accident
3. "And so died Rabiachinska" A ventriliquist is accused of murdering a competitor...Great performance by Claude Rains, by the way
4. "Revenge" A man seeks revenge on the man who attacked his wife
As for the other episodes, sad to say, some are downright boring, consisting of people(usually with British accents)standing around talking, and talking, and talking, and nothing happens.
Another gripe I have are the menus. Instead of just setting up the premise, they give away the ending!

I can't speak for subsequent DVD editions of other seasons of this stellar series, but this 1st season collection has abominable sound on many episodes and when you view episodes using the episode option in the menu it is preceded by a description that usually robs the episode of any suspense it contained. I'm sorry I bought it because the flaws take all the enjoyment out of what should be an exalting entertainment.

I had never seen an episode of "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" before I purchased these DVD set.
I was probably expecting it to be like "The Twilight Zone" or "The Outer Limits", so some of the episodes seemed very simplistic.
"Revenge" and "There was an Old Woman" were really silly, where as "Back for Christmas", "The Perfect Murder and "Place of Shadows were excellent episodes.
This will not discourage me from purchasing season 2 !!

Excellent purchase, I would highly recommend this to anyone who is a Alfred Hitchcock fan.

a fine collection of the master's TV anthology, notwithstanding the occasional editing out of the mid-show "bumper".
