The Virginian is still the best! August 27, 2010 JK (Columbia, MO) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
We have really enjoyed viewing the old episodes of The Virginian--the enhancement that has been done to the DVD's makes it just as though it were a new movie!

Television's best weekly western movie August 24, 2010 A. W. Carter (Orlando, FL) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Nothing provides a better escape from the reality of the present than a good, old fashioned classic television show from the past. I always liked the 90-minute NBC show "The Virginian" (which ran from 1962-1969) featuring my early childhood hero Trampas (and later Hollywood `pal' Doug McClure), but watching this show now I'm shocked at how good the stories and great actors are.
br /
br /Each episode is literally a mini-Western movie. Some with A-listers like Bette Davis, Robert Duvall, and Lee Marvin, and some by feature directors, such as Sam Fuller. Plus, this show was largely shot on location and not some fake outdoor set like "Bonanza." If you like Westerns, hitch a ride and be transported to a time and place where old-school values and first class stories roamed and ruled.
It is what it is August 19, 2010 Al 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
If you like the Virginian or similar western shows (Bonanza, Gunsmoke), these DVDs are great and the quality has been perfect. Comes in a nice tin as well.
Enjoying it immensely... August 18, 2010 Amazon Junkie (Columbia, MD) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
..and I don't normally like Westerns. My husband does though and one day he convinced me to watch an episode (Robert Redford was in it I think) and I relented. I have been hooked ever since and when this came out I got it for my husband (hah!) for Christmas. The quality of the show is amazing as if it were filmed today not decades ago. I love the stories and the characters. We watch it every day and I am already sad for the day when we watched all. But I guess we can just start at the beginning. :)
br /
br /The one thing that is regrettable is apparently the actors' residuals have run out long ago and they no longer profit from these reissues!
What a Classic Show! August 8, 2010 The Breech (Long Beach, California United States) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Percy Faith's heroic theme under the very cool ride-in of the opening credits hooks you. After that you are treated to one of the finest westerns to ever grace the TV screen. As the cliche, goes, "they don't make 'em like this anymore.'
br /
br /In addition to the theme music, I was blown away by three things: The chemistry of lead characters, the outstanding writing and spectacular scenery.
br /
br /Can't wait for season 2!
