Before The Dick Van Dyke Show, suburbia was never portrayed on television as a haven of sophistication. We never followed Ozzie Nelson to work. And we never, ever fantasized what Ward and June Cleaver did behind closed doors. But Your Show of Shows veteran Carl Reiner's groundbreaking series broke the staid, sitcom mold. Just consider Mary Tyler Moore's Laura Petrie, the ravishing wife of Dick Van Dyke's comedy writer, Rob Petrie. "I'm just a housewife," she proclaims in the episode "To Tell or Not to Tell," just before breaking into an incendiary bossa nova in the Petrie living room. In "The Return of Happy Spangler," she is jokingly identified as Jackie Kennedy. But the comparison is apt. She's got style (those capri pants scandalized the show's sponsors!); she's got grace. The Dick Van Dyke Show boasts a peerless ensemble, gold-standard writing, and characters who have become icons. How many comedy writers were inspired to get into the business by watching Rob and his staff, man-hungry Sally Rogers (Rose Marie) and old school "human joke machine" Buddy Sorrell (Morey Amsterdam), brainstorm sketches for tyrannical boss Alan Brady (much discussed, and much feared, but never seen in season 1)?

Much of the comedy in the first season springs from Rob juggling his glamorous career with his harried home life. In the first episode, he compels his over-protective wife to attend a party at Alan Brady's, though she is worried son Ritchie (Larry Matthews) is sick ("He turned down his cupcake"). In "Washington vs. the Bunny," Rob must choose between a business trip and seeing Ritchie in a school play. In another episode, Rob forgets "Forty-Four Tickets" he had promised to the P.T.A. But back to Laura (and about time!). As the season unfolds, Moore comes into her own as a gifted comedienne, and she takes her stock character to dizzy new heights, as witness "My Blonde-Haired Brunette" and the classic "The Curious Thing About Women," the one with the inflatable boat. A pop culture benchmark, The Dick Van Dyke Show is must-own television. --Donald Liebenson

Customer Reviews of The Dick Van Dyke Show - Season One Box Set

ONE OF THE GREATEST SITCOMS OF ALL TIME EXCELLENT DVD TREATMENT
Not only is this a great classic TV show, but the DVD treament is excellent. The episodes look clean and unedited. The sound is clear and the extras are plentiful (at least compared to most old shows) and interesting. This show is very funny and it holds up well. I would love to see Father Knows Best, The Donna Reed Show and the rest of the Leave it to Beaver series done with this quality and bonus material. All five seasons are consistent and some of the best television ever made!


Television at it's very best
I grew up watching these as re-runs in the seventies, and now my kid's watch them (without any parental prompting). We have satellite TV with about 9 million channels but this show keeps getting watched over and over by my family. Why? Great writing and great acting, and no guilt due to obscenities. Season One features the bonus of Carl Reiner's pilot show that preceded the Dick Van Dyke Show. It's amazing how different (and unfunny)the original pilot show was. I won't go into more detail about the specific episodes of this set, since it's already been reviewed quite well, but I will say this: this set is a little on the expensive side and is not easy to find at many stores but buy it anyway-it's worth every penny and then some.


Who wouldn't love Dick Van Dyke?
I ordered the first season of Dick Van Dyke. It was reasonably priced and arrived right on time. We have played the entire set and the episodes are all good ones, but then I never saw a bad episode. <
>The quality of the DVD's are excellent. If you enjoy the sit coms from the 50's and 60's, you will enjoy this first season. Invite the entire family,even the kids, and sit back, relax and be prepared to laugh. <
