This 100-episode set from Treeline Films is the quickest way to acquire a fairly diverse library of classic television programming, mostly from the 1950s, at an affordable price.

Eddie Albert (ostensibly sane) spent six seasons appealing to the whacked out citizens of Hooterville to behave in a rational and orderly manner. Naturally, he got just what he deserved--the gradual erosion of his own mental stability. Aficionados of this show like to call it surreal. I call it real life.
All one can add to that, to paraphrase the classic title song, is that DVD is the place for Green Acres to be. Hooterville may have been condemned by critics as a vast wasteland, but as the first season demonstrates, it provides fertile ground for bizarre behavior for a gallery of...

I've bought the Classic Movies, the Comedy set, and the musical set, and they are worth the cost. Stage Door Canteen from the musical set, the sound is a little off, but all in all, worth the cost.
