Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is the set that fans of the classic TV sitcom The Mary Tyler Moore Show have been waiting for. Season six has what many consider to be the best episode of the series and some would argue the best sitcom episode of all time. While it doesn't top my list of either one, it is certainly funny. I'm talking, of course, about "Chuckles Bites the Dust." This episode takes black comedy to an art form when Chuckles the Clown, a character we've only seen once but heard mentioned more than that dies rather unexpectedly. He is leading a circus parade as a peanut and gets squashed by an excited elephant. The jokes the characters tell are downright funny. I laugh almost as hard as the studio audience every time I see it. But I'm getting ahead of myself. Not that this classic needs much in the way of an introduction. By season six, the show pretty much revolves around the work life of Mary Richards (Mary Tyler Moore) since her two friends outside of work have now moved out of town (and to their own sitcoms). She's the producer of the six o'clock news at WJM in Minneapolis. She, her boss Lou Grant (Ed Asner), and the news writer Murray Slaughter (Gavin MacLeod) have to put up with the bumblings of their arrogant anchor, Ted Baxter (Ted Knight). Recurring this season are Ted's girlfriend Georgette (Georgia Engel) and happy homemaker (think a 70's Martha Stewart) Sue Ann Nivens (Betty White).

I grew up watching the MTM show. There was a time when an hour block would air at 2am, and I would sometimes awake to watch as the episodes would soothe me. When she passed, I purchased dvds in honor, but also so I can relive the enjoyment and marvel at the talent.

I have been looking for the last three seasons of this series for the last four years and found them in a bargain bin for a very low price. What a deal.

I'm sure that it's wonderful and I look forward to watching the DVD, particularly the one episode which was the reason for my purchase.

Actually I was having a hard time deciding between the sixth and seventh seasons so decided to get both. High quality videos.

for a show to go this long showed how good it was and that it was at the top of its game still in the sixth season

A must have for the Mary Tyler Moore fan.Chuckles Bites The Dust is worth the price of the DVD set.

Great show. They dont write shows like this anymore. Funny without being crude or vulgar.

Great show got to love Mary! Ted Baxter is so funny and don't forget Betty white is in this show.

Why can we not have anything comparable to this on today's network television?

Glad to get the MTM collection. really like seeing all of the old shows.

Brings back great memories -- can't wait to get rest of the series

Good family watching. Brings back very fond memories as a child

Another incredible season of this groundbreaking show.

I grew up on this show an it brings back funny memories.

It never ceases to amaze me how wonderful comedy shows were over 40 years ago and how horrible they are now. There is nothing to laugh at anymore!
