Another Great 50's Series
I recently ordered this set from Barnes & Noble. As you know, some of Timeless
Media Group's series, have been less than good. This one however, makes it.
The picture quality is very good, and the audio is even better. The only reason
I didn't give it a better grade is because some of the episodes are a little
darker than others. But the picture is crisp, no jumps, no dirt. A worthwhile
purchase.
A GREAT AND UNDERRATED SERIES
It is about time this excellent series was finally released on DVD. What a gem! Now, I remember this series growing up, but when it aired, I was only 10 years old. I always enjoyed the action (always a fist fight), and some of the more subtle things might have gone over my head. But, seeing it again made me realize that this show more then stands the test of time. The characters are timeless and really do stand up. Many posthumous kudos to John Vivyan and Ross Martin as Lucky and Andamo and to creator Blake Edwards. In fact, in my opinion, much better then PETER GUNN and I think that series is still good and was also created by the talented Mr. Edwards. MR LUCKY is better overall. You gotta LOVE the cars alone !!! Another great thing is that each episode is a tight half hour episode telling the story and accenting it with action at the end. I've heard some say that the plots were a little shopworn, but I disagree. It was just the nature of the character of Mr Lucky to have friends...
PICTURE QUALITY IS DREADFUL
Was really looking forward to this, but the result is deeply disappointing. The picture quality is dark and washed out, while the sound quality is often warped and distorted. Sad.
