The shows get 5 stars; unfortunately, the two-sided discs are a big disappointment - lots of sticking and freezing up. We were unable to watch the last half of two of the episodes, but the rest played OK and were as fun to watch as when they originally aired on TV. I hope to see more seasons of Rock & Susan, but please put them on single-sided discs!
January 8, 2009I loved this series when it was on...always been a fan of Rock Hudson, and especially after the tragic circumstances of his life in his later years, it's nice to have a piece of nostalgia, when he was happy and enjoying life. I get a big kick out of the "70's" clothes - colored shirts with big collars for the men, and minis on the ladies, etc!
January 7, 2009 Around the late 1950's and early `60's, Rock Hudson co-starred in a series of romantic comedies with Doris Day. "McMillian and Wife" is like those movies except for the crime solving element and with Susan Saint James in place of Doris Day. That would make Sargeant Enright (John Schuck) the Tony Randall in Rock's debut TV series. My reason for making my purchase is that "McMillian and Wife" has two things in it I really like to watch in a mystery series. One is humor with such things as congested traffic, a coffee machine and a water fountain. The other is being that since this show was made in the pre-CSI era, the violence is suggested. The idea someone has been murdered comes across without graphic details. This DVD set contains the pilot, "Once Upon a Dead Man" and the seven episodes of Season One that rotated with "McCloud" and "Columbo" on the "NBC Sunday Mystery Movie" in the 1970's.
November 4, 2008McMILLAN AND WIFE is a five star show, Universal is a negative 100,000. Do not expect to see any new McMillans from them, this show will have to be farmed out to get released in full. I am so sick of buying the first season of a series only to realize that the rest of the series won't be, like Kojak, etal. Or, you can buy the whole series, one DVD release at a time like I did for the Wild Wild West only to have it then re released WITH the two made for TV movies included and no you can't get the movies separate at this time. Keep ripping us off and sooner or later, no one will bother with your crap.
