Tales of Tomorrow - 4 Episodes (B&W) Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This 3 episode DVD gives a good idea of what science-fiction and fantasy film-makers were doing for television in the early 1950's. The acting is somewhat stiff, and the sets/props must have been left from other shows, but you can see the style and ideas come through. Look for Leslie Nielson in a "serious"...
Lone Ranger, Vol.1 - 3 Classic Episodes (Masked Rider / Old Joes Sister / Cannonball McKay) (1949) Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This DVD was everything I hoped it to be. From the first episode you can still motion and step and see the Lone ranger without his mask while riding with everyone into the canyon. I purchased the DVD with the first 9 Epasodes. It is great. I was born in 1949. This was the first thing I saw as a child...

Max Fleischer's Superman/ Superman: The Lost Episodes (1939) Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I've bought complete collections of these Superman cartoons 5 times now. Twice on VHS and now 3 times on DVD. The cartoons themselves are great, but look out for which DVD edition to buy. Since these reviews seem to come up no matter what DVD edition is selected on Amazon, this should be helpful.The...

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Season Four of No Reservations is where I think the show really started to pick up steam on the entertainment side of the house. Whereas the show used to revolve simply around Tony going to various locations and eating food, this is where the Travel Channel really started figuring out that Anthony Bourdain...
