First off I rate this set a solid ten in picture and sound quality. Yes, It's that good. I watched a summer rerun of this series in the summer of 1965 on CBS on Wednesday nights at ten. My favorite of these hour long shows is the Alaska trip. I had most of these comedy hours on VHS but DVD is 100 times better. My only complaint is it took 11 days to arrive from the time it left Amazon's facility. I don't know why, as most order take 3-4 days.

I would love to give this 5 Stars but it's sadly lacking the greatness of all the other seasons. It's really heart breaking, since usually, things get better with time, regarding TV shows.
It seems to me that for the most part, Lucy and Desi were just going through the motions. It seemed really forced and I must agree with other reviews, the hour long format seemed far too long. 30-45 minutes tops would have been about right. They stretched it out with nonsense skits and far fetched plots. It was an insult to their talent, wasn't it?
Bill Frawley and Vivian Vance were wonderful, as always, but the marital strain showed between Lucy and Desi. Lucy looked as if she aged ten years after her new hair-do and the clothes she wore were grandma-like. I even noticed the changes the house went through, like the weird floral curtains?? and the missing china cabinet and what about the view into the living room from the kitchen - where did the hallway come from suddenly?? The glass windows are missing and the back-drops move when the actors walk past them! These are big things.... maybe they thought nobody would notice?? I guess they didn't count on DVD sales let alone multiple re-runs!
No, these shows were thrown together, shoving TV and film stars in to compensate for the lack of quality. Such a shame. I'm the biggest I Love Lucy fan there is, but I'm also realistic. What I'd love is the complete set of The Lucy Show with Vivian Vance - the black and white series. Now those were good!

I'd been purchasing these episodes one at a time in both VHS and DVD formats. It's great that I now have the complete series in one set. I love all of the Lucy/Desi shows. Additionally, the entire set was sent in tact and without scratches.

I am an I" Love Lucy" fan and wanted all the seasons. This one I should have skipped. If the stories had been 30 minutes, they would have been wonderful, but it appeared the writers were reaching to sretch the stories to a longer format. The episode with Lucy and company in Japan was good, as was the one with Ernie Kovacs, but the rest were dull. The story of Lucy going to Alaska started out being funny, but quickly lost its momentum.
