I wholeheartedly agree !
I love the color season(s), because the stories took on an intellectual form, and departed from the standard, serial, Pulp form. Again, using my favorite episode as an example.
Thank God for TvLand, for keeping the show alive for future generations to enjoy, over and over again !

Some of the later color episodes are well done, but... - Audiophilander 06:01:13 09/29/02 (1)
... as about 50% of the time the later shows degenerated into silliness, with dialogue and plots that wouldn't even suspend the disbelief of their target audience; unfortunately, the show's budget didn't increase all that much when the series shifted to color as demonstrated by some of the cheesy sets and props. Earlier episodes had genuine suspense, IMHO, and the sinister music was great!
Nevertheless, I'll agree with you that "some" of the color episodes are true classics, with excellent writing, well orchestrated plots and good acting from both the principles & secondary actors. The bottom line is that if this early television series were remastered and released complete and unedited in original order, I think we can both agree that it would make a fabulous DVD set.

- This Friday's TvLand Celebration is a Bust !!! - mikenyc 23:41:56 10/02/02 (0)
  It's a unique promotion...celebrating the anniversaries of the premiers of classic Tv shows...but they are giving "Superman" ONLY 4 "classic" shows, while they celebrated "The Love Boat" and "Beverly Hillbillies" with extended marathons.
  Oh well...you can't have everything !
