Did NOT receive the item..

Rating: 5
I was NOT very happy, as for some unknown reason, I did NOT receive the items. They were "lost" in shipping then returned before I could receive them. So I am unable to review and rate them. I did love this series as a teen-ager though! I did reorder one of the items and hope to receive it soon. C Zakula

Good quality entertainment.

Rating: 5
Watching this show again is like visiting old friends. It is good to have the option of watching this on DVD as quality entertainment on tv has dwindled. 37 episodes with the original music. No rip offs on this one. Well worth the money. I am looking forward to the release of the following seasons.

My Pearls Are Intact!.

Rating: 5
If you're into the perfect mid-century family sitcom, then this is for you! The writing for the Donna Reed Show is witty and urbane while still covering family issues that are relevant even today. OK - so who believes that ANY family issue can be resolved so quickly?!? But this was the way it was done then and still holds true in today's TV writing with the exception that THIS is Donna Reed - and for a closeted Donna Reed - I have found my bliss!

I heart Donna Reed!.

I am so excited that I can't stop shaking!! Literally.

Growing up one of my most Favorite, Favorite, Favorite shows to watch was.....

The Donna Reed Show!

I just adore Donna Reed and so I was so very sad when they stopped playing the show! I was even one of those fans who petitioned on the Nick at Nite site to bring it back.

About an hour ago I decided to search Donna Reed on YouTube to see what I would find!

Well, to my surprise at the end of one of the clips was a screen that said: "The complete first season out on DVD October 28, 2008!"

WHAT!!!

So, I got my butt right over to Amazon and there it was, in stock and on sale waiting for me!!!

I ran downstairs (yelling in excitement as if I was a little kid on Christmas day) to go tell my husband what I just found (I told him a long time ago about how I was so sad that they didn't play her show anymore and he remembered when I started telling him about it all!) So, he just ordered it for me and got the 1 day shipping so I can have it as a my stocking gift!!!

The first season has 37 shows!!! I can not wait to have my Donna Reed marathon! I am still shaking in excitement!!!

This is the best Christmas present! Can't wait for season 2 now!!!

My Role Model.

Rating: 5
I have been waiting for this series to come out forever! I video taped a lot of them years ago when they were on "Nick At Night", but to be able to have complete shows with no commercial interruption is great. Donna was my favorite of all my childhood role models...June Cleaver, Margaret Anderson & Harriet Nelson. At least from my memory, these shows seem to be complete & they do contain scenes that were cut from Nick At Night episodes. If you want a pleasurable escape for some winter evenings I recommend this set of Cd's & I look forward to the next season relelase!
