My Favorite Martian - The Complete First Season (1963)

young at heart

This is a great series. Brings back great memories. . No sex, no violence just good honest fun. June 30, 2008

Double sided discs can be a problem

My first copy of My Favorite Martian Season 1 had some major problems with freezing and skipping on one of the double sided discs. Would not play on most of my many DVD players.
Fortunately, I returned them to amazon and the second copy was OK. The show should be 5 stars as it is a beloved classic. Some transfers however have some shaking areas. Still worth buying however as this is the best we will ever see. June 24, 2008

My Favorite Martian--still a favorite

Witty, funny, articulate, and usually having a moral message--a tour de force by Ray Walston "as the Martian."
This views even better than I remembered from 1963-64 and is, oh I don't know, maybe 10,000 times better than the trash that passes for "situation comedy" on television today.A pity no one in television land knows how to write humor anymore. Jerry Lewis has always said writing humor is far more difficult that writing drama or tragedy. He's right. Martian is worth the price for the laughs, and the messages of how an "outsider" views America... November 5, 2007

Well-made comedy.

Only problem is, it's silly comedy, and I really can't stand it. This would be great for young kids... for me, not so much. I was hoping for better because I really like Bill Bixby, but this isn't complicated enough to hold me for more than a few seconds at a time. I end up fast forwarding through it to get to the end...

1 Star For Amazon Pricing

By pricing this $.01 below free shipping, Amazon probably thought that I'd buy more to get the shipping for free. They were wrong. I bought this at a different site plus an additional boxed TV set. Nice try but we're not that stupid! May 26, 2007
