The Great Gildersleeve!
Im an OTR fan and Im especially fond of The Great Gildersleeve. I own a lot of Gildersleeve episodes on cd and even some on audio cassette. A few years ago, I bought The Great Gildersleeve Movie Collection from another site. I was disappointed when I saw the packaging; one thin case with one DVD. I played the disc and part way through each of the four movies, the audio and picture got out of sync. This was very annoying and distracting. I paid about $9 for it, and so I just decided to keep it,thinking that thats probably as good as it gets since that was the only site even advertising this movie collection. When I saw this collection offered by Amazon the other day, I just had to take a chance and Im glad I did! This DVD is much better, the audio and picture are in sync and stay that way throughout each movie, and the picture is better quality than the other DVD I bought years earlier. Overall I am very happy with this purchase and I recommend it to any Gildersleeve fan.
This is fun!
It seems that there is a antural affinity for movies of he forties when you like old time radio (OTR) and vice versa. Gildersleeve had years of funny radio shows and it was natural they would lead to this series. If you liked the radio shows, get this.
It is fun and funny and Peavey is a scream
Memories of radio listening as a boy
My family tuned in "The Great Gildersleeve" over NBC every Thursday evening. The show was a favorite of mine, and the movies contained in this set bring back fond memories. Crisp, clear transfers. Recommended for fans.
