Here is a list of the episodes of this DVD collection for those who might want to get the single disc editions that contain other episodes. Unfortunately, a number of the shows in this collection are edited. The episode numbers below follow the production/syndication order; the DVD booklet numbers them by the order they were aired, although they must be skipping "The Frog" from 1956 (which was not aired by CBS but is in syndication) as the episodes starting with "The Runaway" are off by 1. What's funny is the discs follow the production order.
---------- Jeff years ----------
1) #1 - The Inheritance (ALERT: this version is edited, missing segement where Lassie unties her rope to Jeff's bed)
2) #5 - Lassie's Pups
3) #10 - The Lion (the DVD book incorrectly puts this episode after "The Inheritance")
4) #53 - The Journey (the Jeff episode, not the Timmy episode with the balloon)
5) #104 - The Runaway (introducing Timmy)
6) #116 - Transition (the Martins take over the farm)
---------- Timmy years ----------
7) #173 - The Camera
8) #180 - Peace Patrol (the Lone Ranger)
9) #184 - The New Refrigerator (not "The Refrigerator" as named in the DVD booklet)
10) #202 - The Space Traveler (not "Space Invader" as named in the DVD booklet)
11) #269 - Lassie and the Eagle (the DVD book incorrectly puts this episode after "The Odyssey")
12) #275 - Lassie's Protege
13) thru 15) #277-279 "Lassie's Odyssey" (Part 1 thru 3)
(note: episodes are missing re-caps of previous episode plus previews for the next one, so they run shorter than the normal 25.5 minutes)
16) #290 - Lassie and the Tiger
17) thru 18) #330-331 - The Treasure (Parts 1 and 2)
---------- Ranger years ----------
19) thru 20) #476-477 "Holocaust" (Parts 1 and 2) edited down to 22.5 minutes each
---------- alone years -----------
21) thru 22) "For the Love of Lassie" (Parts 1 and 2)
severly edited down to 20.5 minutes each
---------- Holden years ----------
23) thru 24) "Run to Nowhere" (Parts 1 and 2) edited down to 22.5 minutes each
It's still a great collection to have. "The Odyssey" itself makes it worthwhile. And seeing Jan Clayton, Tom Rettig, June Lockhart and Jon Provost together on stage is one of the greatest TV moments!
