Those who lived to experience the routine-breaking Colgate Comedy Hour say that nothing, new or old, can match this widely popular weekly TV variety show.

Title: It's worth a laugh!
Review: I am a fan of comedy. I love to laugh. I think it is very special to be able to go back in time and see what is now considered classic comedy come alive. I wish we could go back further, to Vaudeville, or earlier, and witness what went down.Some sketches run long, you can always fast foreword. They cut Dean's solo songs out but there is plenty of his singingwhile Jerry drives him crazy! If you are a fan of comedy I think this would be a fine addition to add to your collection.JT

Title: Very Funny Shows!
Review: I am so happy to have found this dvd. I have been searching for it for some time with the original commercials. It is so wonderful to see these shows as they aired back in the 50's!

Title: the best of the colgate comedy hour Martin and Lewis
Review: I completely agree with the other reviewer. DON'T BUY THIS!!!!. They have completely butchered these shows. They've resold this material, more than once, and in many different forms. Just the songs, just the comedy etc. It's about time they release these shows in a way that the fans are not getting cheated. When will they ever do it right and put out ALL the shows UNCUT?This is beyond greed. This is a complete ripoff.

Title: It's good, but it could be great!!
Review: Martin & Lewis in every endeavor, but most importantly in their Colgate shows, were the epitome of "The Golden Age of Television." Never will you see two men equally do all they can to make their audience laugh without completely humiliating themselves. Their movies would never completely show case the comedic talents of Dean Martin, but the show always would! Which leads me to the only flaw I found with this DVD set; you can see the two men in all their comedic glory, but you can barely hear Dean sing anything. Yes, all of Dean Martin's solo spots behind the microphone doing what he does best is extracted from every episode. So, laugh your bum off, but for newcomers you will only bare witness to half of the history.

Title: was thoroughly satisfied
Review: I almost didn't buy this set from all the griping about the logo left on screen...I thought it blocked viewing but was plesantly suprised it isn't even noticeable. I loved the fact that this set was complete and in chronological order. The only thing I didn't care for was they cut most of the musical numbers out but left the commercials in...I don't really care about Dean's songs but most people really do and I REALLY don't care to watch 60 yr old commercials in place of his songs. That being said I think it is a wonderful set to have and am very happy I bought it

Review: Sensationell !!! Ich hatte schon einige Folgen der Colgate Comedy Hour auf diversen DVD Boxen....leider war der Ton immer miserable , was ich natürlich auf das Ursprungsmaterial schob (von 1950-1955). Aber hey - hier ist eine Kollektion mit superben Tonmaterial. jetzt verstehe auch ich als nicht native Englisch Sprecher die Dialoge....wunderbar. UND: es handelt sich um eine KOMPLETTE Sammlung; ALLE folgen der Comedy Hour mit Martin & Lewis....Einzig die SOLO Songs von Dean sind raus geschnitte...so what...mir gehts um die Comedy und diese ist vollständig und in einer superben Qualität vorhanden.
