More than anything, seeing this set finally become available is great news for those of us who bought the first two seasons of "My Favorite Martian" from Rhino several years back...and then waited, and waited, and waited for the third (and final) season that never came.
The first thing to know about this set is that it doesn't come from Rhino, but rather from an Australian company, Umbrella. When it became clear that Rhino was never going to release the final season, Jack Chertok Productions (producer and owner of the the show) worked with Umbrella to produce and release this set in Australia -- but in a format that could be re-imported into the US. As a result, we not only get all 32 episodes of the final season, but we get to see the extras that Rhino didn't see fit to include in the previous seasons.
For those who enjoyed this show (and probably already own the first two seasons), this set is well worth buying. It's a better quality set by far than what Rhino released (no syndication edits or jumpy video) and has some nice extras. And most importantly, it's fun to watch -- there's an innocensce behind the humor in "My Favorite Martian" that is nice to see, and a pleasant change from the mean-spiritness of so many newer programs.

I am so glad that this season has finally gotten a dvd release. It had to be an Australian company to put it out, but this completes my collection of My Favorite Martian. Thanks for the set.

Probably the second funniest of the "fantasy comedies" of the 60s, after "Jeannie", too bad this was the final season, because nothing was lost in the transition from B&W to color; would have loved to see another season of this series.
Rest In Peace, Ray Walston, Bill Bixby and Pamela Britton.....

The Good is the wait is finally over! With or without Rhino, I am happy that Umbrella Entertainment pulled through for the final season!
Now the fans can finally own the complete series!
The Bad is the episodes are in very poor condition. No attempt was made to digitally restore them. Many of them look old, speckled, and washed out.

For those who are wondering... I received my copy yesterday and this IS the AUSTRALIAN import from Umbrella Entertainment. It is REGION FREE and in NTSC FORMAT - in other words it will play in ALL US DVD players! It is has 6 discs (no double sided ones here) in a AMARAY style case with a great 3D cover! I have not had a chance to watch it yet, but I know there were alot of questions about this product and I just wanted to clear them up.
The real title is "The Complete Third SERIES" In Full Colour rather than "Season". I hope this helps.
