Movie ReviewsWhat a shame! R. P. Moskal | Perryopolis, Pa. United States | 07/05/2002 (2 out of 5 stars) "This review is for the quality, NOT the shows. I grew up with, and loved, the Beverly Hillbillies. I have a few VHS tapes, but wanted better quality as you would expect with DVD. NOT! The shows on VHS are even better than this mini frisbie. Not only is the quality poor, but the theme song is gone. No "Come and listen to a story about a man named Jed..." There's this banjo music I never heard before. All I can think is that someone wanted to make a quick buck. A truely pathetic example of modern technology. Save your money. Maybe some day Jed and his clan will get a respectable release." Heapin' helpin' of hospitality----hillbilly, that is! 09/23/2001 (4 out of 5 stars) "This DVD contains four of the earliest episodes of "The Beverly Hillbillies," but because these are not released by the copyright holder, the actual open and close we all know is not on the DVD. Instead, there's an Elvis sounding impersonator handling the singing made famous by Jerry Scoggins. Hopefully, CBS will release "Beverly Hillbillies" on DVD soon, so better prints with the actual opens and closes are available. The episodes on this DVD do a pretty good job of showing why the first two seasons of the program are actually among the best written in the history of television. Snobs hate the program, but the writing, character definition, and evolution of the characters all get off to a good start. And the music of Perry Botkin is used in a very sophisticated way to underscore the action on the screen, compared to the music of Curt Massey whose background music is heard on the later color episodes. Instead of using the music to set up a gag or to get a reaction, Botkin's masterful use of music sets up certain motifs for each of the characters to define them. That's something rarely done in a filmed sitcom--if it was ever even done prior to this show. The quality of the prints from which these episodes were taken is not particularly good. But until CBS releases the show on DVD, this is what you've got." I was cheated M. La Vean | Michigan | 12/04/2001 (1 out of 5 stars) "This is a poor quality transfer for both picture and sound and I am not sure they had the rights to the whole thing because they took out the theme song and replaced it with some really bad instrumental piece...the episodes are obscure...I live in France and wanted to get in touch with my youth and expose my daughter to the real American culture...may I did...these people screwed everything up for a buck...2 episodes per disc...make you want to feel like you are getting value for money but 45 miutes per DVD is a joke...Avoid is my recommendation"
