I can just barely remember watching the reruns of this show. Now, I am SO glad it is released on dvd. If you like classic comedy entertainment the whole family can enjoy, this series is for you!

You cannot name one favorite episode of this first year compilation nor would you really want to....there are so many side-splitting laughes to last a life time. However, a good case would be for the original episode which introduces us to good, but klutzy Captain Wilton Parmeter, devious but lovable Sargeant O'Rourke and Corporal Agorn, and Edward Everett Horton and Fred de Kova as the Hikawi medicine man and chief, respectively. This first episode sets the stage for EVERTHING which follows. Watch and see how Captain Parmeter proves he IS the "scourge of the West", and drop dead laughing while Corporal Agorn refreshes the Indians with war-dance lessons!! You will literally laugh till you cry. Whether you remember their antics from your youth or are just now discovering this comedy treasure, you won't be able to stop watching this first year laugh bonanza ..see the bugle played upside down in the worst way possible, wait for the inevitable toppling of the watch tower and some expected (and unexpected) cannon firings....watch the Indians borrow the cannon for their Moon Festival while Captain Parmeter and Wrangler Jane share a tender interlude. Wait for the complications and their hilarious solutions. Be astonished and amused as the Indians industrously promote themselves with timely souvenirs while O'Rourke and Agorn enrich themselves. These episodes are well written, well acted and filmed with creative comic timing and sense....you may never see anything funnier. It deserves a prominent place in your comedy collection and, by all means, watch it, watch it and watch it over again!!

I loved this show as a kid and I love it even more as an adult! This is good clean fun for the whole family. There's six discs of this classic '60's showand believeme you're gettin' your money's worth with this box set. I picked this up directly from Amazon for less than 18 dollars (shipping not included.) rest assured when the second season comes out it will be bought also.

I had forgotten just how funny F-Troop was. I am so glad I bought this collection. The DVDs are excellent quality and the price was great!

This black and white 1960's series is a easy-going smile-on-your-face send up of the wild west. The plots are quite simple with the strength being the the humour generated by the bumbling characters, some of which is traditional slapstick. Captain Parmeter is well-meaning but incompetent, while his subordinates, O'Rourke and Agarn run an unlikely souvenir and contraband enterprise on the side with the help of the local Indian tribe 'The hekawi's". The ineraction with the Indians gives the shows some of the funniest moments. The explanantion of their tribe name is halarious. Other troopers in the Fort include a non-musical bugular, a short sighted lookout, and a non-English speaking interpreter. The most dangerous place in this fort is not fighting the Indians, but being in the ill-fated lookout tower.
